The Ninth Annual International Yoga Day was celebrated in MAISM on Wednesday, June, 21st; 2023. The celebrations this year were with the official theme ‘Yoga for Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam’ which represents the concept of ‘One Earth, One Family, One Future.’ This theme lays emphasis on the healthy living of every human being irrespective of any discrimination with the regular practice of Yoga.

‘Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam’ is a Sanskrit phrase that literally means ‘the whole world is a single family’ or ‘the world is one family’. This phrase is derived from the ancient Indian scriptures called the Maha Upanishads. Also, this idea reflects the concept of all human beings being connected together in a thread and that everybody on earth should live in complete harmony . This will in turn transcend all boundaries of nationality, religion, race and any other form of division
