On 19th October 2024, the 2nd Bihar State Yoga Sports Championship was organized by the Universal Yoga Sports Federation in association with Bihar Vidyapith Deshratna Rajendra Prasad Shikshak Prashishan Mahavidyalaya. A heartfelt thanks to Swami Santoshanand for gracing the event with his august presence. Throughout the day, his inspiring words and charming voice kept motivating the young participants from various schools and colleges across the state.
Special thanks are also due to Dr. Ashwini Singh for his tireless efforts in organizing the event. Typically, we organize yoga camps where Yoga and Pranayama are taught, but this event was unique in that it featured Yoga as a competitive sport. With Yoga now recognized as a demonstrative sport in the Asian Games and ongoing efforts to include it in the Olympics, this initiative aims to nurture a cadre of Yoga athletes for international competitions.
The question that arises is: Can we popularize Yoga Sports in rural areas by establishing Yoga Sports Clubs?
