Guys,
Please keep religion out of discussion here. We don't need to drag the discussion in another direction.
Thanks.

The views expressed were not mine. I got a different web page when I searched and it had the "Quote" in that and I just pasted it to provide a different view and outlook and the comments made upon the Yoga Display conducted by P.M.Modi.
If I offended anyone or any religious minded group, it was not intentional. It was one such remarks made by them that was brought to your attention.
In the first link they made a correction. Here is another reproduction of the same.

Many groups practice YOGA and it has caught on as a beneficial exercise routine and praise such activities that provide and maintain flexibility of the body, mind and soul and extend their life span to top it off. Yoga has been different things to different people and all of them do not praise its benefits and virtues. A few will object to its usage and propagation due to its origins and practice.
Different folks, different strokes.
Not being able to maintain such postures for a prolonged period, I took to TAI-CHI and found it to be my testing grounds. But it does not provide nor expand it to the breathing field, that which it lacks.
If on a day, I am unable to flex myself with these easy exercises, I limit my work routines to suit my body movements.

A few Muslim groups have complained that chanting the sacred Hindu sound of "Om" during yoga and certain poses, such as "surya namaskar" or sun salutation, have clear Hindu overtones and were against Islam.
Why we practice YOGA? Is it because it is against Islam? Mmmm... What Next !

This discussion was supposed to be purely about Yoga, its benefits and information related to yoga.
It is absolutely DISGUSTING that meaningless points have been inserted into this discussion to spoil the environment.
There are threads which are specifically meant for political and religious discussion, please take it and leave this thread alone for meaningful discussion.
Thank you.

True 
If you just draw a cartoon of their Pedophile Prophet, they start shooting and killing and blowing things up. Pedophile Muhammad was married to 6 year old Aisha, who was his grandaughter's age 
..
Then they have the nerve to oppose a peaceful Yoga day ??

The way BJP are handling Sushma Swaraj, Raje and LaMogate, they may soon have to sing A.R.Rahman number "Jogi, Mein Rasta Jogi"
