Aaapda mein avsar ! the world over aging population is a challenge. special yoga for them to know thyself, reduce their food intake make them active , vanprastha , sanyas ashram. World used covid to kill them & save pensions . India can use yoga & save pensions. This is today's challenge. as it is they r being thrown out by children , not their fault. the demands of modern life too hectic & no useful contribution , only challenges to serve them . state /teachers can contribute . they will turn over their wealth easily, Satya sai baba got thousand of crores in public domain. Many other rishis /ashrams would have got it. Y not on this theme. Yoga for all varnas . There should be clips authorized from masters addressing challenges of each age + well being & restful sleep, 15 minutes to max 45 minutes.

a white paper on what yoga has achieved so far, country wise . How has it benefitted India from exports . commerce ministry should release a white paper. health ministry should be evaluating - prevention , road rage, anger ( road accidents ) Not seen 1 yet. How is yoga impacting school/college . concentration , fitness levels decreasing, addiction increasing, lethargy , low energy or just hatred for daily chores. Yoga should be addressing these. Can be a theme. Yoga for Focus . Afterall body is only food, air ,water. when r we teaching them to kids before they become ripley's believe it or not. One shuffling of page and whole book learnt ( swami vivekananda ) , Arjun's focus, complete detrioration of learning, skills, observation skills, abundant energy . Yoga can be centred around. Yoga for revival of Humanity ( look at wokeism gender etc. The world gone berserk . is it a curse of the iron stick of krishna, even so time to popularize it. Teach it to USA the truth.

Yoga essentially originated in the subcontinent of India. It has been around since ancient times and was performed by yogis. The term yoga has been derived from a Sanskrit word which translates to basically union and discipline.
