Mysuru: Yoga, the ancient art of India that is Bharat, has gone international and the whole world is celebrating International Day of Yoga tomorrow. Our city has a rich tradition of this practice and hence it is also called the Yoga Capital of the world.
The credit for this goes to our rulers the Wadiyar dynasty and, therefore, it is right to say that Yoga has a ‘Royal Touch’ to it. Mummadi Krishnaraja Wadiyar (1798-1868) was an authority on Yoga as he has clearly depicted the importance of it in his nine volume works Sritatvanidhi.
