The coming year is a historic event in many ways.

The United Nations has declared the world International Yoga Day.

Over 15,000 years ago, since Adiyogi, many things have happened in terms of propagating

yoga in terms of reaching out.

Many administrations in the form of kings took to yoga.

But the first time the head of a major nation on the planet is talking about yoga in public,

in international fora.

And I invite you to dress me silly, Mr. Prime Minister.

This could be a kind of a foundation stone to make scientific approach to the inner

well-being of the human being.

A world I think that if you want to be well, you don't have to seek heaven's help.

You can turn inward and fix it.

This is the message when you say there is an international yoga day.

This is what it means.

The world is beginning to accept.

Human well-being is not in heaven, it's within us, it's a tremendous step for the world.

And for the first time, 177 countries get together to pass a resolution.

Never before in the history of United Nations, 177 countries have voted for anything.

I wanted to understand this is lived for over 15,000 years without any kind of one organization

Because it works, it's lived.

Today, nearly 2 billion people on the planet are doing some form of yoga.
