Peace Tree planting in Voderady
A tree is blessed for peace and wishes on the International Day of Yoga.
Yoga is for the environment, not just humans. This tree symbolizes peace, like the Vṛkṣāsana posture derived from trees. The ceremony involves circling the tree with positive wishes. Attendees are given instructions for photos and seating, with a focus on children. Sanskrit prayers are chanted for peace. A welcoming ceremony includes the singing of a Slovak folk song. The event involves distributing items, primarily to children, and concludes with a call for everyone to perform their ceremony.
"Yoga is not only for humans but also for the environment, this tree will do its duty."
"This tree stands here for peace, harmony, and love. Those who have a wish, come to this tree... and state your wish."
