    Hon\u2019ble Prahlad Singh Patelji<\/strong> shared,<\/strong> \u201cCovid-19 is not a time to panic but an opportunity. Yoga is key to Healthy Youth and Healthy India. Yoga provides us a path to strengthen our immunity, allowing us to be better able to combat viruses and disease.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    He emphasized how ‘Namaste’, the Indian tradition of entering home without shoes, taking bath before entering home, things that may seem small, but are steeped in deep and timeless wisdom. He inspired and encouraged all participants from across the world to join him on Yoga Day to practice Surya Namaskar and participate in 10 million Surya Namaskar challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Hon\u2019ble Shripad Naikji shared,<\/strong> \u201cYoga plays an important role in reinventing yourself with a healthy body, mind and soul. What is the story behind your yoga journey? Participate in the My Yoga, My Life Video Blogging Contest and share the transformation that has been brought about Yoga. I encourage and appeal to everyone to join in this contest and also celebrate Yoga at Home. Let us make a Healthy and Strong India with Yoga.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Pujya Swami Chidanand Saraswatiji<\/strong> so beautifully shared in anticipation of this milestone event that, \u201cAs yogis, the planet is our home and the world is our family, so taking this opportunity of staying at home to reflect and introspect, to repair and prepare ourselves to usher in a \u201cNew Normal, is exactly what we need to do!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Pujya Swamiji continued<\/strong>, \u201cLet the music of Yoga and oneness resonate in our homes and from our hearts. Let us celebrate the summer solstice and solar eclipse by waking up and shaping up for a new future and a new tomorrow, co-creating a world in harmony with ourselves, with our communities and our planet.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Sadhvi Bhagawati Saraswatiji shared<\/strong> so beautifully, \u201cYoga is the key to all that ails us. From individual depression, anxiety, addiction to communal violence to war & terrorism to environmental destruction and climate change. They are all rooted in the illusion of separation. Yoga brings us the experiential knowing of Oneness and from that Knowing, we think differently, live differently and treat the world differently! That difference is what we need today.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
