This class has been named as \u2018Yoga and Good Health 12\u2019 and will consist of 120 hours of study of the subject consisting of learning principles and practice of Yoga, Pranayama, meditation, \u2018Yoga-sutras\u2019, <span class=\"explanatory-dictionary-highlight\">Sanskrut<\/span> definitions, spiritual benefits of meditation, recitation of \u2018mantras\u2019 and \u2018Yoga-sutras\u2019, <span class=\"explanatory-dictionary-highlight\">Ayurveda<\/span> etc. The curriculum also includes finding and expressing own self. (The drive of teaching \u2018Yoga\u2019 to students along with regular studies is most commendable and congratulations to Central Okanagan School for the same ! It is expected that the Central Government would at least now make study of Yoga compulsory by paying no heed to opposition of the so-called seculars and anti-Hindus since Yoga will help children in everything and is capable of bringing total change in their life ! )<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This article was originally published on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hindujagruti.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Hindu Janajagruti Samiti<\/a> .
