Ramdev keen to introduce yoga in Pakistan

[pak-yes]

its for others.. you dont need to for gym either..

As you quoted me it means you are adressing me.

As far as Yoga is concerned you don't need to tell me what is good and what is wrong.keep your Hindu Opinion to yourself.If you don't know about Islam or don't wanna learn about Islam it's just good to keep quiet.

it doesn't really matter whether its Islamic or not islamic. The matter is under current circumstances Mr Ramdev should not travel to Pakistan and put his life in danger.

Its interesting to read the comments. The reason there is opposition to Ramdev in Islamic countries especially Pakistan is because it has 'potential' to generate huge followership just like its doing in the west.Any followership that starts touching spirituality even if its more a 'wellness' philiosophy rather than religion it will always prick the established religious leaders and they will oppose it.

Its possible that there will be opposition from Christian right, Jews and Muslims..Just like Ayurveda, Yoga is an integral part of Vedas and thus the Hindu philosophy (not religion), if these things catch up elsewhere its got to be considered a cultural export...

actually almost nobody in Pakistan knows about Mr Ramdev........... i would say out of 170 million peoples may be 0.5 peoples know him? So they will not pay attention to him in first place

Secondly those who pay attention, most of them will be sensitive about his activities and might try to harm him if ever found a chance that is because the way Yoga is performed it closely resembles the Hinduism, even though if it does not the Sadhu clothes he wears peoples in Pakistan may not like it.

There will be hardly any fan of him in Pakistan so why visit a country that is risking your own life?

The issue is on yoga and whether it is regarded as being unIslamic. You don't seem to know much about Islam yourself. I suggest that you change your mullah. The one you are using may soon receive a visit from ISI for preaching outcasted version of Islam which most Pakistanis are frowning upon. Or else you could just convert to Christianity or Hinduism and yet have a chance to save your bigoted soul.

Here's a disclaimer to start with...Im no fan of Ramdev and whether he goes to Pakistan or moon or not makes no difference to me...

However, I find your comments disturbing...here's why..

- You mention he is not known in Pakistan which is not a surprise and it should work in his favour as people dont know him. Building a fan base takes effort and thats why he wants to travel...in the first place.

- Whats wrong wearing 'sadhu' clothes? Why is it a problem? I understand its not everyday people see such attire in Pakistan but for it be a threat to his life is surprising.

- If he is not known and has no fans cannot mean he is under mortal threat or does it? If it does, then it alters my sense and understanding of Pakistan especially the urban & punjab part of it.

Is this 'reaction' reserved for hindus or extends to jews, Christians as well?

Instead to introduce yoga in Pakistan, they should STOP to make propaganda against Pakistan world wide.

This is what India need to present in Pakistan.

Mister.I have said that I have a better alternative to yoga and that is Namaz(Prayer)how Come this becomes Outdated.Read my Post before accusing.Yes i don't not know much about Islam but i know enough to Protect my Faith.

You Tried to Insult Islam and Prayer when i said that i have a better Alternative to Yoga you said that i also might not go for GYM.

And one thing More.There used to be more Muslims in Indian than Pakistan BUT now there are MORE Muslims in Pakistan than India.

you did not understand me

The common man in Pakistan is very emotional. It is not common to see Sadhu baba's in Pakistan. The common people does not even know about their own religion ISLAM but they do react when see something going unislamic. Now i personally believe Yoga is just a form of excercise and shall be allowed but what about the common man in Pakistan who are going to run after this Orange Dressed Sadhu Baba thinking he is preaching something unislamic?

I have no problem with Mr Ramdev he is most welcome to visit Pakistan but i am worried about the poor public of Pakistan who are little too emotional. Again all your 5 fingers are not of same size but there is a huge population in Pakistan who will not like him

Take a look at this

Baba Ramdev launches political party

Last Updated: 2010-03-16 17:59:24

New Delhi: Launching his own political party ‘Bharat Swabhimaan’, yoga guru Baba Ramdev on Tuesday said his candidates would contest all seats in the next Lok Sabha elections.

"Next Lok Sabha elections will have candidates from Bharat Swabhimaan contesting elections in all 545 Lok Sabha seats," Ramdev told reporters here.

Asked what made him foray into politics, Ramdev said he wants to ‘cleanse’ the system.

“Bharat Swabhimaan activists will cleanse the political system of India,” he said.

“Around Rs 300 lakh crore of black money should be brought back and invested in developmental activities. As soon as the black money stashed away comes back, India will become the second most powerful economy. We have to get the money back by 2020,” the yoga guru added.

However, Ramdev made it clear that he himself won’t contest any elections.

“I will not contest any elections or accept any political post. I am here to serve people and my party will act as a corrective force within the political system,” he said.

Baba Ramdev further said he plans to enroll 7-10 lakh members in every parliamentary constituency of India.

Don't play innocent when i said i would Prefer Namaz(Prayer) over Yoga for Meditation you said that I might not also go to GYM.Now what is that Supposed to mean that Islam and Prayers do not Provide Relaxation and Meditation.

 

[secularguy]

who is Baba Ramdev?
A Hindu Sage Who Become Famous due to his huge followers and fans(via TV programs of Yoga) especially due to His Propagation of Yoga to many.

Is Yoga connected to Hinduism?YES!!!!! That is Enough.Christians May not Dispel it.But ,Please don't expect too Much with all People.We ,in India are too used to Secularism and Appreciating Anything Useful to the Masses.It won't work everywhere.
