World Day of Yoga 世界瑜伽日


I received an email from Archbishop of Kuala Lumpur, His Grace Julian Leow, forwarding an invitation from Brahma Kumaris Malaysia in conjunction with the celebration of the first United Nation proclaimed International Day of Yoga on June 21.

He knew that I was  practicing Yoga exercise until my leg replacement operation a few years ago.

My wife and I, together with few Yoga enthusiasts, attended this event as the official representatives of the Catholic Church, and received warm welcome from the organiser.

The celebration was graced by the Commissioner of India to Malaysia, and featuring a talk by a world renowned Yogi from Europe.

It was a refreshing and enriching session.

我收到一通來自吉隆坡廖炳坚总主教的电邮,转达了一份马来西亚古传瑜伽协会的请柬,出席在六月二十一日举行的联合国第一次宣认的“世界瑜伽日”。

总主教知道我在动脚膝盖骨手术前,喜欢瑜伽运动,所以就询问我是否能够出席。

我与太太及数位瑜伽运动朋友,以天主教会的代表身份,出席了这些历史性的庆典,受到主办当局热情的接待。

庆典在靠近布城的龙溪镇郊外亚洲退省中心举行。

大会的开幕嘉宾是印度驻马来西亚最高专员,并且邀请了一位来自欧洲的著名瑜伽师傅做专题演讲。

这讲座对我们是一个非常充实及新颖的体验。
