Posted by Remis Mureika on

The International Yoga Day Has Been Celebrated Yearly On 21 June Since 2015, Following Its Inception In The United Nations General Assembly In 2014. Yoga Is A Physical, Mental And Spiritual Practice Which Originated In India. The Indian Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, In His Un Address In 2014, Had Suggested The Date Of 21 June, As It Is The Longest Day Of The Year In The Northern Hemisphere And Shares A Special Significance In Numerous Parts Of The World.

Shiva Is Believed To Be The Origin Of Yoga, He Is The Adiyogi, The First Yogi (Adi ="First"). Summer Solstice Holds Significance In The Yogic Culture As It Is Considered To Be The Very Beginning Of The Yoga. Yoga Was Brought To The People By The Saptarishis - Story Says That Shiva Was Sitting In Blissful Meditation For Years, Many People Flocked To Him Out Of Curiosity, But Left As He Never Paid Attention To Anyone. But Seven People Stayed, They Were So Determined To Learn From Shiva, That They Sat Patiently For 84 Years. After This, On The Day Of Summer Solstice, When The Sun Was Shifting From The Northern To The Southern Run, Shiva Took Notice Of These 7 Beings - He Could No Longer Ignore Them. The Next Full Moon, 28 Days Later, Shiva Turned Into The Adiguru (The First Guru), And Transmitted The Science Of Yoga To The Saptarishis.
