Abstract: At the present time while the paradigm shift in respect to human health is directed to maintain wellness rather than treating illness, popularity of yoga as a means of ensuring wellness of human health is universally accepted. It is not as if international community has become aware of the benefits of yoga as a means of holistic health care only after Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s appeal to international bodies for a International Yoga Day, but they were used to it even before this; - and International Yoga Day has only given them an opportunity to share what they find to be the best among the existing health care practices. While the world community felt the need of yoga in restoration of health, promotion of human values, no significant efforts are made to include it into curriculum of formal education. The objective of the present paper is to see whether such global popularity is motivated merely by some underlying perceptions with regard to benefits of yogic practice or there are some scientific/experimental evidences. The authors also want to visualize the prospects of yoga education, especially in India which is assumed on the ground that India is the motherland of yoga and learning it in its motherland itself is naturally a dominant inclination within the minds of all human beings.
