I had seen this statement regarding yoga practice in Sweden which is "From 2012 there has been an ongoing debate in Sweden about whether yoga may be taught in schools, as religious instruction is forbidden in the state schooling system."
Yoga is not seen as a religious practice at all. It is spiritual and is a form of flexibility and relaxation. Yoga purely concentrates on the mind and improving health and wellbeing. I don't know where this debate of it being religious came from. Sweden is a secular country - it only separates religion in politics and law. It does not forbid any religious matters for this would go against what secularism is.
There is a vast difference between religion and spiritual. Spiritual is mostly about focusing on your inner mind and strength. Religion is a following which abides by certain rules, which Spirituality does not have. Could someone please explain this statement above? MountainLaurel88 ( talk) 11:55, 17 June 2022 (UTC)
