It was a rare sight -
after a brief speech to inaugurate International Yoga Day on Sunday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi descended from
a huge stage in front of the presidential palace and took off his glasses and
his shoes. He quietly took his place before a sea of schoolchildren and others,
mats neatly arranged in a checkerboard as far as the eye could see, to begin
what was billed as the largest yoga demonstration in a single venue in history.
"I believe that from the 21st of June, through the International Day of Yoga, it is not just the beginning of a day but the beginning of a new age through which we will achieve greater heights of peace, good will and train the human spirit," Modi said in his speech.
