Yechury says yoga is 'dog's body movement', Twitter users lash out

[Hindustani78]

Rig vedic people had religion based on natural forces.. thats like religion v 1.0
islam came thousands of years after them, mostly work of an individual but surely many more persons were involved, its sudden departure from prevalent belief and certainly did not develop organically out of it, we can call it religion v 2.0 (most abrahamic religions are).
Rig vedic people worshipped elements like fire, water and other natural phenomena as god.

Rig Vedic People use to worship supreme creator and when we read verses in Atharveda,Upanishad etc then we do find the similarities. Supreme Creator do have his own place and no one can take his place and on that there are Gods. demi Gods, apsaras in which each god has its own duties which is similar like the duties of angels then there is talks about demons who are good and bad both which is similar like of Jinns. then Houris are similar like apsaras who live in heavens etc.

Verily He is one , Single, indivisible, supreme reality.
- Atharva Veda 13/4/20

He is the sole sovereign Of the universe. - Rig Veda 6/36/4

There is only One Who ought to be adored By the people. - Atharva Veda 2/2/1

If we read about Prophet Ibrahim tribes then we can clearly understand its about Indian tribes .

India not coveting posts at international level: Rajnath | Zee News


New Delhi: Home Minister Rajnath Singh said on Monday that "India is not hungry for any post" at any of the international platforms.

Addressing the valedictory session of the international conference on `Yoga for Holistic Health` here, the home minister said India, being the birth place of Yoga, never wanted to become a world leader in propagating Yoga but wanted everyone in the world to live in good health and peace.

"India is not hungry for any post. India has always practised `Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam` which says the world is one family," he said.

Indian sages and saints always looked beyond welfare of the countrymen. They always propagated the idea that the entire world was one family and worked for the welfare of all.

Talking about India and the world observing International Day of Yoga on Sunday, the minister expressed happiness saying that the entire world was in a festive mood.

"There was a festive mood not only in India but all over the world. The entire world has practised Yoga, which doesn`t belong to one religion or caste," he said, adding that the entire credit for making International Yoga Day a reality goes to Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Rajnath Singh also observed that Yoga does not separate people from each other as it does not belong to any particular religion.

"There are people who relate it to a particular religion but it is not the case... on International Day of Yoga even Islamic countries participated in functions to observe the day," Rajnath Singh said.

On the occasion, the minister also launched a scheme for voluntary certification of Yoga professionals, recognising that Quality Council of India (QCI) has expertise in developing such quality framework based on international best practices.

Minister of State for AYUSH Shripad Yasso Naik, and AYUSH Secretary Nilanjan Sanyal were among those who attended the programme.

I or anyone should not raise any voice against this statement on yoga because it is technically correct

I am still waiting for your reply with Modi's statement about puppies.....

 

[Soumitra]

itna to india walay mujhe hate nahi karty jitna ap ko karty hain PDF Pe bwahahahahaha

You are a Pakistani. So for you to be Anti India is natural. That commie @jamahir is supposedly an Indian but he spews bull shit and utopian thoughts of that tin pot african dicatator who exploited millions of libiyans and who was finally dragged on the street and killed like a dog.

I hope people like him are locked in a jail and the key thrown away. Even Congressies and Aaptards are much better than the likes of him

 

[ZooZoo]

Look like Yechury is following Poonam Pandey... Tharki Budda...

 

[jamahir]

You use the word "commie" as if it is a slur...don't you realize that the Indian independence movement was led by the commies and socialists?

his heroes in rss were the traitors.

funny how the rss puts up shaheed bhagat singh's photos at every chance without ever mentioning that he was socialist.

Yechury had on Sunday said: "All yoga exercises can be noticed in dog's body movement."

He's not so wrong. During a yoga class in my school, our teacher told us that each asana was inspired by an animal and then she had also shown us an asana which was similar to lion's sitting posture.

 

[jamahir]

Yeah, that's always baffled me. Wonder how modern-day right-wing Indians would treat a modern-day Bhagat Singh.

"anti-national left-wing terrorist moron who is hindering development and whose retarded ideas are no longer relevant".

Please---- He was more patriotic and nationalist than you can ever dream to be

I thought some yogic poses came from cats.

CPI-M general secretary Sitaram Yechury was strongly criticised by a section of Twitter users for his controversial remarks that yoga postures resembled a dog's movements.

Please---- He was more patriotic and nationalist than you can ever dream to be

huzoor, he was not nationalist as you understand it... his ideas were worldly, socialist, and not isolationist, village-like, reactionary as with your rss.

leave it.
