Yoga is a physical, mental and spiritual practice or discipline, that aims to transform body and mind.
The origins of yoga have been speculated to date back to pre-vedic Indian traditions, but most likely
to be developed around the 6th century B.C. Yoga Sutras of Patanjali are one of the most revered texts
in treaties of yoga. On 11th December, 2014, the 193 member U.N. General Assembly approved a
resolution establishing 21st June as International Day of Yoga.
