Modi's unexpected reference to Yoga came when he was talking about climate change and going back to basics. Yoga is not just about fitness or exercise, it is about changing one's lifestyle, the Prime Minister had said, plugging for ancient practice that was introduced to the west by Modi's spiritual inspiration, Swami Vivekananda. About 130 countries, including US, Canada and China, have have signed up for co-sponsorship of a draft resolution which India's UN mission is preparing for declaring June 21 as the International Day of Yoga. The resolution is expected to be submitted soon to the UN secretariat with the government looking to aggressively push for its adoption before the end of this year.
