It embodies our ancient culture of consciousness and a balanced state of mind propounded by Patanjali.

I urge the youth to practice yoga every day to make it a discipline. Yoga creates a positive mindset within us and is scientifically validated to overcome psychological conditions and bring holistic wellness. We should unite within ourselves through yoga to unite with the external world. Let us promote health and wellbeing in the society,” he said.
