Spending money to publicize any
exercise or yoga is of no value till the stomach is half filled or empty. Such
stomachs are interested in food (including water), clothing and shelter. These
are the basic needs of life. Publicity of any exercise by ministers and other
persons through media can only be considered as photo session only. Those in
power are expected to focus more on the lower needs. We must keep it in mind
that a starved body eats its own defenses.
There are many fields like
sanitation, education, Job training, child care, elder care etc which are
crying for our attention. Skilled people should be brought to Self sufficient
level and only then we can think about higher growth needs. There is no second
opinion that exercise or yoga purify the soul and are beneficial for the health
but basic needs which are the oxygen of life must be given priority.
