New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed the nation on the 7th International Yoga day and told how Yoga has been a key strength after the country was hit by Covid 19. PM Modi began his address to the nation by wishing wellness and good health for "every country, every society, and every individual".
PM Modi said that even though major public events have not been organised in countries around the world and in India for two years, the enthusiasm for Yoga Day has not diminished. PM further said that today when the entire world is fighting against the COVID-19 pandemic, Yoga has become a ray of hope. For two years now, no public event has been organised in India or the world but enthusiasm for Yoga has not gone down.
PM Modi added, "When I talk to frontline warriors and doctors, they tell me that they've made Yoga a shield for protection against the virus. They've used Yoga not just for safeguarding themselves, but also patients. Today even medical science lays emphasis on the healing process, besides medical treatment. Yoga helps in the healing process."
PM Modi further said, "here are pictures of hospitals, with doctors, nurses teaching Yoga performing breathing exercises like Anulom Vilom Praṇayama. International experts have said that these exercises strengthen the breathing system. Physical and mental health both are important. Yoga helps us to do so."
PM Modi launches M-Yoga App
Launching the 'M Yoga App', PM Modi said, "It will be introduced to the world. I am hopeful that this app will help promote one world one health. When India proposed International Day of Yoga in the United Nations, it was the spirit behind it to make this yoga science accessible to the whole world. In collaboration with WHO, India has taken another important step. Now there will be M-Yoga app, which will have yoga training videos in different languages for people across the world. This will help us in our 'One World, One Health' motto."
