He mentioned that Yoga is a timeless tradition that transcends boundaries and is not subject to copyrights, patents, or royalty payments.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore, Yoga can be practiced by individuals of all ages, genders, and fitness levels, and its portability makes it accessible to everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To commemorate the 9th edition of the International Day of Yoga, Prime Minister Modi personally led a special Yoga session on the lawns of the UN headquarters.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This remarkable accomplishment was celebrated by Amit Shah, who took to Twitter to express his admiration for PM Modi&#8217;s efforts. Shah stated that the Guinness World Record achieved by Yoga enthusiasts from various parts of the world, in the presence of PM Modi, is a testament to the inclusive spirit of Yoga and a tribute to India.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>PM Modi\u2019s Global Promotion of Yoga Showcased India\u2019s Cultural Power<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Shah, PM Modi&#8217;s global promotion of Yoga not only showcased India&#8217;s cultural power but also instilled a sense of unity and a fresh perspective on a global scale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He tweeted, \u201cA landmark day for India. The world witnessed the power of India&#8217;s culture as PM @narendramodiJi practised Yoga at the UN HQs on #InternationalDayofYoga today. Modi Ji not just promoted Yoga on a global platform but reclaimed India&#8217;s glory by gifting a new worldview of unity.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Michael Empric, the official adjudicator from Guinness World Records, confirmed the successful attempt to set a new record. He revealed that the goal was to have participants from 140 nationalities, and although they fell slightly short with 135 nationalities represented, it still secured a new Guinness world record title.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Empric expressed his delight in seeing people of diverse nationalities coming together once again, reminiscent of their collective support for India&#8217;s proposal to celebrate 2023 as the &#8216;International Year of Millets&#8217; last year. This achievement serves as a testament to the power of Yoga in bringing people together across borders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.opindia.com\/2023\/06\/yoga-day-celebration-at-un-headquarters-create-a-guinness-world-record\/\">Image<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Prime Minister Narendra Modi&#8217;s leadership in organizing a Yoga celebration at the United Nations headquarters in New York on Wednesday resulted in a historic achievement.\u00a0 The event set a new Guinness World Record for the highest number of nationalities participating in a Yoga session.&nbsp; Yoga World Record Created At UN Headquarters in New York During [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":25,"featured_media":1246804,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21],"tags":[1915,1916],"class_list":["post-1246788","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-business","tag-international-yoga-day","tag-yoga"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>International Yoga Day Celebrations Create Guinness World Record: Citizens From 135 Nations Perform Yoga With PM Modi!
