Yoga practice should be made compulsory in schools and colleges

Madikeri, June 18; Yoga is not limited to any one religion. Shakti newspaper editor G. Chidvilas expressed his opinion that yoga, which is very effective for the physical and mental balance of a person, should be taught compulsorily in schools and colleges.

He spoke as a guest at the Silver Jubilee celebration of Yoga Bharati Institute held at the Redbikes reception hall in the city. By practicing yoga, a person maintains physical strength and mental stability. He analyzed that the health of the society also strengthens as patience, tolerance, compassion, love and affection naturally instill in individuals through the continuous yoga process.

Yoga, pranayama and meditation, which are part of Indian ancient education, were at one point associated with Madivantika.
