There is no substitute for yoga in any religion. Thus, yoga has emerged as a robust therapeutic system for general well-being (“ >Yoga is unacceptable: Muslim body ”, June 25). One must always be open to adapting the good things espoused by other religions. It is absolutely not fair to consider yoga as depicting a particular religion.

Yoga should not be seen though the prism of religion. It is a form of exercise which relaxes the mind and body. However, the BJP’s attempts to saffronise it should not be allowed. Likewise, if a Muslim wishes to practise yoga from the point of view of enhancing his/her health, why should he or she be stopped?
