Namaste to all,
I had the wonderful opportunity to attend and represent Oman as the Vice President of Global Yoga for Peace and Prosperity at the Global Yoga Summit held in Bengaluru on the 6th and 7th of this month.
The summit was truly inspiring, with more than 5000 attendees, 42 countries represented, and many renowned yoga teachers and wellness experts from around the world.
There were speakers from various countries, each an expert in their field. Their depth of knowledge and passion made every session enriching and engaging.
In today’s world, people are connected globally through technology, yet many are disconnected within themselves. This inner disconnection is causing rising stress, anxiety, and emotional imbalance.
Therefore, the theme of Mental Health at the Global Yoga Summit 2025 felt like the need of the hour.
I was honoured to be part of the panel discussion on Mental Health, focusing on the Yogic Concept of Well-being. We explored how the ancient wisdom of yoga—especially the foundational practices of Yama and Niyama—is the highest and most essential discipline for every human being, irrespective of caste, creed, nationality, or religion. These universal values form the true backbone of holistic mental health and inner peace.
Another important session was the panel discussion on Vegetarianism, where experts highlighted how a plant-based lifestyle supports physical health, mental clarity, and compassionate living.
I express my heartfelt gratitude to Devraj Guruji, Sai Kumar Ji, Sandhya Ji, and all the organisers for giving us this wonderful opportunity and for creating such a powerful global platform.
Overall, the experience was deeply meaningful and reaffirmed the universal message of yoga — peace, harmony, and inner transformation.
