“It is unfortunate that some people attribute religious overtones to this ancient scientific system.”

He emphasised that yoga should become a part and parcel of people’s daily routine to combat modern-day health problems, both physical and mental.

“There is also a misconception that yoga is only a sort of physical exercise meant to help the fitness of an individual… It is a holistic system where the mind and body act in unison and get completely rejuvenated as physical postures, breathing exercises and meditation help in overall well-being of an individual,” he said.
