Power of Yoga

A few skeptics say that Yoga is slowly dying out in India, its birthplace. Maybe those skeptics have never traveled in a peak hour local train. Our fore fathers would have been amazed at the ingenious use of the Yoga Asanas ! Try standing on one foot, with one arm extended backwards and the other arm extended forwards. Now, maintain this position for 20 minutes. I am sure, even the Baba from Rishikesh will be impressed.

Even Tom Cruise in Mission Impossible was hanging on to a train for dear life. However, our guys are so highly trained that they can hang with their fingers and a singled wedged toe, for more than an hour.
All this calls for a high degree of coordination of hand-leg-eye movement starting from the time one jumps on to the running train, to the time he/she gets off. Ah well, maybe the Army can recruit these skilled chaps to bolster their decreasing strength!!!
