Every Thursday at 6:30 the Consulate of India hosts a yoga class which is ongoing since the last edition of the Yoga Day. In a similar fashion Ananda Marga offered to have regular meditation classes free of costs at the Indian Consulate provided that there will be sufficient number of participants. Ananda Marga is committed to bring Yoga at his maximum acceptance in all the communities for its vast spectrum of beneficial effects on human body and mind.
