Stop Calling it 'Yoga'! How Western Marketing is Re-Branding India
Ever noticed how our ancient traditions are coming back to us with fancy new names?
This video is a real eye-opener!
From Pilates (which actually has roots in Yoga and Kalaripayattu) to "Box Breathing" (which is just our Samvritti Pranayam), the West is masters at re-packaging our culture and selling it back to us.
Even Yog Nidra has been renamed as "Non-Sleep Deep Rest" (NSDR) by experts like Dr. Andrew Huberman just to make it sound "scientific."
But here’s the problem-if we don't speak up, in 100 years, the world will think these are Western inventions.
They’ve already turned our Makhana into "Lotus Seeds" and Yog into "Yoga."
It’s time we take pride in our roots and call things by their original names.
Let’s not let marketing erase our heritage!
