अन्ताराष्ट्रीयः योगदिवसः
प्रतिवर्षं “२१ जून्” इति दिने “अन्ताराष्ट्रीयः योगदिवसः” अस्ति। भारतस्य प्रयासेन संयुक्तराष्ट्रसङ्घः इदं दिनम् अघोषयत्।
अधुना बहुषु देशेषु योगदिवसः आयुज्यते। अस्मिन् दिने सर्वे जनाः सम्मिल्य योगाभ्यासं कुर्वन्ति। भारतदेशे अपि भव्यं आयोजनं क्रियते। देशेभ्यः विदेशेभ्यः च नेतरः साधारणाः जनाः च आगच्छन्ति, योगासनानि कुर्वन्ति च।
जनाः शरीरस्य चित्तस्य च स्वास्थ्यं प्रति उदासीनाः सन्ति। तेषां शरीरे मनसि च विभिन्नाः रोगाः जायन्ते। भारतवर्षे गुरुकुलेषु सूर्यनमस्कारः शिष्याणां पाठ्यक्रमस्य अङ्गम् आसीत्। योगासनानां नैके प्रकाराः सन्ति। यथा – शीर्षासनं, पद्मासनं, शवासनम् आदीनि च। शीर्षासनेन बुद्धिः तीव्रा भवति। प्राणायामेन श्वासप्रक्रिया नियन्त्रिता भवति। ध्यानेन कार्येषु कुशलता वर्धते।
योगासनेन शरीरं सुदृढं निरामयं च भवति। योगासनेन शरीरे चित्ते च स्फूर्तिः जायते। योगासनेन उत्साहः वर्धते। जनाः कार्यप्रवीणाः भवन्ति। जनाः रोगरहिताः अपि भवन्ति। योगासनार्थं कस्यापि साधनस्य आवश्यकता नास्ति।
सत्यमेव उक्तं – योगः कर्मसु कौशलम्।

अंतरराष्ट्रीय योग दिवस पर निबंध
हर साल 21 जून इस दिन को अंतरराष्ट्रीय योग दिवस होता है। भारत के प्रयत्नों से संयुक्त राष्ट्र संघ ने इस दिन की घोषणा की थी।
अब बहुत देशों में योग दिवस का आयोजन किया जाता है। इस दिन, सारे लोग एकत्रित होकर योगाभ्यास करते हैं। भारत में भी भव्य आयोजन किया जाता है। देश-विदेश के नेता और लोग आते हैं और योगासन करते हैं।
लोग शरीर और मन के स्वास्थ्य के प्रति उदासीन हैं। उनके शरीर और मन में विविध रोग होते हैं। भारत में गुरुकुल में सूर्यनमस्कार शिष्यों के पाठ्यक्रम का भाग था। योगासनों के अलग-अलग प्रकार हैं। जैसे – शीर्षासन, पद्मासन, शवासन इत्यादी।शीर्षासन करने से बुद्धि तीव्र हो जाती है। प्राणायाम से श्वास की क्रिया नियंत्रित हो जाती है। ध्यान करने से सारे कार्यों मे कुशलता बढ़ती है।
योगासन से शरीर सदृढ और निरामय होता है। योगासन से शरीर और चित्त में स्फूर्ति आती है। योगासन से उत्साह बढ़ता है। जनाः कार्य में कुशल होते हैं। लोग निरोगी होते हैं। योगासन के लिए कोई साधन की भी आवश्यकता भी नहीं होती।
सच कहते हैं – योग से ही कर्मों में कुशलता आती है।
