Surya Namaskar Yajna 2010 16th - 31st January
Hindu Swayamsevak Sangh (HSS) concluded its fourth year nation-wide Surya Namaskar Yajna starting from 16th to 31st January of this year to create awareness among the people about Yoga and its advantages in achieving a healthy body, mind and spirit. While we keep collecting the counts of participants attended in this unique event and the counts of Surya Namaskars done by each of them, please visit this page to get the updates from all around.
Each year Hindus worldwide celebrate January 14th as Makar Sankranti - a day that marks a change of season as the sun enters the sign of Capricorn or Makar. Makar Sankranti ushers in longer days; thus the festivity symbolizes sunshine in life. Therefore, to mark this occasion, HSS conducted a collective Surya Namaskar Yajna from January 16th to January 31st, 2010.
