Yoga gave me clarity, inner maturity, says Pawan Kalyan
On International Yoga Day, the Jana Sena leader shared his thoughts on the social media platform ‘X’.
The actor-politician revealed that he began his journey with yoga at a young age.
“Yoga is an integral part of Bharat’s civilisational ethos and a timeless gift that Bharat has offered to the world. It promotes physical well-being, mental clarity, inner balance, and a healthier way of life. May everyone embrace yoga as a way of life and make it a part of their daily routine,” he said.
“I began my journey with yoga at a young age. At a time when my mind was filled with many questions, yoga gave me not just answers, but a deeper sense of clarity and inner maturity that profoundly shaped my journey,” said Pawan Kalyan.
“Practices such as Kriya Yoga, Ashtanga Yoga and the Art of Living’s Sudarshan Kriya continue to remain an integral part of my daily life,” he added.
