Case against Modi, Shah, RSS chief over 'religious colour' to yoga


Patna, Jun 20 (IANS): A case was filed on Saturday against Prime Minister Narendra Modi, BJP president Amit Shah and RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat in a court in the Bihar capital for giving a "religious colour" to yoga, thereby hurting people's sentiments.

"We have filed a case against Modi, Shah and Bhagwat in the chief judicial magistrate's court in Patna for defaming yoga by giving it religious colour that has hurt the sentiments of people," said Shruti Singh, the lawyer of petitioner social activist Dev Kumar Singh.

The case was filed on charges of committing deliberate and malicious acts intended to outrage religious feelings, and criminal conspiracy, the lawyer said.

The petitioner prayed to the court to order the filing of a first information report (FIR) against the three leaders.

The court will hear the case on June 22.

    The first job this government should have concentrated (After stunning majority in LS.) was, control the prices of basics like Dal, Rice, Veggies, Potato, Tomato and Onions. Our country is full of villages and lower middle class. They don't care for Headline News or Universal popularity. Now, who will answer for Shushma, Vasundara and The Police commissioner who helped Lalit Modi.? It is crystal clear that Lalit had funded Modi during Gen.Election in crores.
    And again, BJP leader Subramanian Swamy is fighting for the bail of Asaram Toku. Asaram Lalit can easily make 3000 plus crores or more.
    Enough is enough, the people of this country are "No more Fools.".
    We voted BJP not because we supported it, but because we were fed up of Congress. Now its time for BJP to behave secularly or face Ghar Vapsi.

    Yoga and Ayurveda are greatest gift by India to the world.Both are essentially Hindu representations originated by ancient Sages for the benifit of humanity.Giving religious color ot these two sciences does not arise at all.People get confused by applying their mean mentality.Yogic asanas are also part of Namaaz and christian prayers in every sense.Those who do not want to get benifit from above two treasures are free to abndon it.

    Mr. Prabhu: Your comments are not to hurt anybody but you speak in a very mild and courteous manner which I greatly respect.

    If some Christians are preaching about the love of GOD and forgiveness of sins through believing in CHRIST, is it good for the listeners? Why then the BJP Government started talking about an anti-conversion bill? Why six States have anti-conversion laws? I had calls from my friends in India that they are afraid of praying in the Churches since BJP came into power.

    Swami Vivekandanda whom I greatly respect was serving food to his disciples at the last days of his life. When they asked him, Guruji, why you are doing this. He replied, JESUS washed the feet of HIS disciples before HIS death, let me at least feed you with some food.

    Gujarat is the leading State in beef export. But if somebody is handling beef in Maharastra and Haryana, they will be faced with prison terms in various level along with monetary penalty.

    How you can explain this total paradox of India?

    MInister Anjeneya rightly said whom Yoga is required Building of peace and harmony is reuired in the society and not yoga. It is a form of exercise and there are many alternative system for body and mind exercise freely and easily practiciable.Minister statement not accepted because of business involved in yoga and who practice yoga belonged to class the minister referred. The foreigners accept any thing Indians say because india biggest market to sell their commodities. If yoga business is stopped and free yoga training is given then it is okay Now it is a political game also.

Only difference is now is we have 6 different religion.

    some scientific findings on OM:

    1:OM or AUM is considered as the sound of Cosmic Energy and contains all the sounds in itself.
    2:The spiritual efficacy of Om is heard, not by the ears but by the heart . OM surcharges the innermost being
    of man with vibrations of the highest reality.
    3:The earth vibrates at 7.83 Hz and so does OM. The primordal vibrations of atoms and molecules is thus represented by OM. When 2 vibrating systems
    are in resonance with each other, a rise in the amplitude of the waves take place. etc
    there are many more but space here is short.

    Mr. Ramesh, "yoga" is practiced by many non-Hindus, some of my Christian friends do, it is good for the mind and body, it is a Hindu based practice.

    If I preach the gospel of JESUS CHRIST in an open place, which will transfer human lives. You simply go to the google search engine and read about the prominent people of India converted to Christian faith. If I preach the same message in an open ground in many parts of India, I can get a stone showering and beating so easily. Do you agree with my personal right to preach the goods news or not?

    Do you remember what happed in your own city in the month of September 2008, when Mr. Yeddyurappa began to rule Karnataka? How many Churches were attacked in a single day?
    What justification you have? While those people were worshipping inside their places of worship, some jobless street goons entered and attacked the praying people, then followed by the police not to stop the attackers but to give extra support to them.

    Well, those events are not buried chapters. Why there is no attacks on the Churches now? The Hindu based "yoga" will be getting a religious color and it was a great blunder for the BJP Government jumping into this "yoga", instead of concentrating on the economic issues to reduce hunger and massive unemployment. Since the BJP Government has no formula or solution to those problems, diverted the focusing to "yoga".

    ..court will throw out this case..YOGA came from a religion, then what is there to colour it..YOGA came from Hinduism..there is such thing like secular YOGA or communal YOGA..But one can practice it as per his convenient..can skip SURYANAMASKAR..can skip OM & chant Gods(as per faith)..

    Ramesh you have little knowledge of hinduism in spite of being a hindu, you learn your sanatana dharma first, then open your mouth least you remove all doubts. modi, shah, have no development platform so they are diverting the mind of people with unwanted "Yoga" where 80% of population is working class , yoga is for the rich and fat. The common man wants ROTI , KAPDA, AUR MAKAN. tHIS three jokers cant fulfill.
