Lucknow, Feb 20 (SocialNews.XYZ) Renowned Vedic scholar Dr. David Frawley met Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath at his official residence on Friday.
Though it was a courtesy meet, the renowned Vedic scholar sought to impress upon the Chief Minister about various advantages and merits of Yoga and Ayurveda, in pursuance of a happy and healthy life.
The Chief Minister's office (CMO) shared a picture of the meeting, in which the duo discussed and deliberated on various aspects of Yoga, Ayurveda, and Sanatan culture.
"Renowned American Vedic scholar David Frawley met Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath in Lucknow and had a detailed discussion on Yoga, Ayurveda and Sanatan culture," the CMO said in a post on X.
Dr Frawley, an American citizen, is a recipient of Padma Bhushan, India’s third highest civilian honour, for his wide-ranging contributions and commendable work in the field Yoga, Ayurveda and Astrology.

"Today, the world is gradually losing its spiritual consciousness. In such a situation, innovation and revitalisation of the Vedas, Yoga, Ayurveda, and other Indian traditions are extremely necessary in the current environment. At such a time, leadership like Yogi Ji's is a blessing not only for India but for the entire world," he stated.
