New Delhi:

 International Yoga day is celebrated on June 21, every year with immense enthusiasm. Prime Minister Narendra Modi participated in Yoga Day celebrations in Andhra Pradesh’s Vishakhapatnam on Saturday. Wishing people on the occasion, the PM said that Yoga gives us direction of peace.

Here are the top quotes of PM Narendra Modi at the event.

The theme of this year’s International Day of Yoga is ‘Yoga For One Earth, For One Health’. This theme reflects a deep truth: the health of every entity on Earth is interconnected. Human well-being depends on the health of the soil that grows our food, the rivers that give us water, the health of the animals that share our ecosystems, and the plants that nourish us. Yoga awakens us to this interconnectedness, leads us on a journey towards oneness with the world, and teaches us that we are not isolated individuals but part of nature

Let this Yoga Day mark “Yoga for humanity, where Yoga becomes medium of global partnership, says PM Narendra Modi.

I extend my greetings to the people from across the world on this occasion of International Yoga Day. Today, the entire world is performing Yoga. Yoga simply means to add, and it is an immense pleasure to see how Yoga has connected the entire world.

In the last one decade, when I see the journey of Yoga, it reminds me of many things. The day India put forth a resolution in the UNGA – to recognise June 21 as International Yoga Day- and in a very short time, 175 countries of the world stood with our country. This unity and support in today’s world is not a normal incident.

I feel proud when I see that our Divyang friends study Yoga Shastras in Braille. Scientists practice Yoga in space. Young friends participate in the Yoga Olympiads in villages. An excellent yoga program is being performed on all these Navy ships. Be it the stairs of the Opera House, the peak of Everest, or the sea’s expanse – the same message comes from everywhere. Yoga is for everyone, beyond boundaries, background, and ability.

Today the entire world is going through some tension, unrest, and instability have been increasing in many regions. In such times, Yoga gives us the direction of peace. Yoga is the pause button that humanity needs to breathe, balance, and become whole again.

Yoga is a great personal discipline. At the same time, it is a system that takes us from me to we

Yoga is for everyone, beyond boundaries, beyond age, beyond abilities

Yoga is the pause button that humanity needs to breathe, to balance, to become whole again
