9th International yoga day

 9th International 

        Yoga Day:




         "योगस्थः कुरु कर्मणि संगं त्यक्त्वा धनञ्जय। 

        सिद्ध्यसिद्ध्योः सोमो भूत्वा समत्वं योग उच्यते।"

June 21 i.e. today is known as International Yoga Day.India is the country that gave the gift of yoga to the world.

                       Hon'ble Prime Minister of India Shri Narendrabhai Modi first discussed about Yoga in the United Nations Assembly. 21st June is the most auspicious day in the Northern Hemisphere and that is why Prime Minister Modi suggested 21st June to be observed as World Yoga Day. Subsequently, a resolution was passed by the United Nations in which most of the countries of the world agreed and decided to observe 21st June as World Yoga Day from the year 2015.


                        Today, International Yoga Day was celebrated in SEPI. In which the yoga teacher of the university and Galani sir attended as guests and the yoga postures were guided by Bonnie madam and Bhavika madam.


                         The program started with a verbal welcome and information about the special day, followed by a warm-up and ended the program by doing simple and easy asanas and knowing the limbs of yoga.

                          Yama, Niyama, Asana, Pranayama, Pratyahara, Dharana, Dhyana, and Samadhi are the eight limbs of yoga.

        Thank you.
