Only yoga can take us forward on the road to world's welfare, said the chief minister who also performed yoga on the occasion.
Adityanath said yoga dates back to thousands of years and is a part of India's heritage and tradition.
Today, yoga is visible on the global stage and attracts the whole world. We should be proud of this achievement, he said.
For a 'yogi', yoga is a way to enter the spiritual realm which leads to a wider dimension of consciousness, he said.
