India shouts against patent of Yoga in USA

Its really unfair, who dont know anything about Yoga can get patent of Yoga and related matters. Member of parliaments and and Yog Guru Shri Baba Ramdevji express their strong anger against this wrong move by USA Patent Office.
Actully Yog is come in to existance in India. Patanjali Yog Shastra is written before 5000 years in India. Today which all Yog Asans are performed, has mentioned in Patanjali Yog Shastra. That means Yog originate is in India. India must take steps against this movement and USA Patent office should stop giving patents of Yoga.
According to a report, USA Patent and Trademark office has given 150 copyrights related to Yoga not only that but also have given trademarks related to 134 instruments of Yoga and 2,315 Yog trademark.
Evevery one knows Yoga is a part of India. This movement by USA Patent office is really not fair. Either you are an American or an Indian. Please help to stop this movement by USA Patent Office. Spread this post in your blog or any webiste.. Digg this also please.

Did not watch that movie. I have not seen Katrina Kaif movies. She got only looks but she is useless actress.

Thats y she was given the role of an NRI in that film?

I saw that filum and I appreciate the answer given by Akki to Europeans.great!!!I think no one will say new india as a land of snake charmers?'d they? :-|

Can someone explain to me why everyone calls "Americans" fools but still follow their lifestyles and habits? This issue is not new. Most of the scientific inventions and mathematics which U.S claims to have invented were found out much earlier in India. The problem is that we people were very narrow-minded during ancient period and kept all the knowldege to ourselves. But the Americans proclaimed their invention to the world and got credit. If the Americans obtain patent for yoga, they will proclaim it as their invention to the world and popularise it.
Rmember in the 90's when the U.S created problems when they attempted to patent Basmati Rice?
Why are Americans who live in other parts of the world called 'Americans' while Indians who live in U.S called half-Indians?
Also can you just tell the source form where you obtained this news?

Like the song by Red Hot Chili Peppers (Californication) go:
"It's the edge of the world
And all of western civilization
The sun may rise in the East
At least it settles in the final location
It's understood that Hollywood
sells Californication"

Oh My GOD! Now I need to pay up each time I connect my digicam or my SE W810i or my iPod to the PC. You see my PC, has 8 USB ports but all of them are situated in the rear of the cabinet. So each time I have to connect these equipments, I have to to try various yoga positions to reach the back of the cabinet.

see guys

You people are a bit late to the patent raping of India...

*www.globalissues.org/EnvIssues/GEFood/FoodPatents.asp

And you know what? There's jack-all that the common person can do about it, apart from signing petitions to let the concerned people know how you think they are bad guys and maybe make them feel a bit guilty.

The only way India can fight these things is through appealing to the judicial body concerned and filing for a patent on the grounds of this being indigenous knowledge. Furthermore, we should demonstrate that there is no way this Baba Ramdev dude came up with Yoga in the first place.

Having said that, India should also immediately patent all these things if they want to protect this kind of problem in the future, and allow their use without having to pay royalties. But knowing India...none of this is going to happen. After all, the west has been raping India even after Independence.

I find is ridiculous that an art and science developed in India should be patented in US. It is sad actually that Basmati rice had been an incident and we are still to open our eyes...

americans r morons. You can't patent yoga. firstly as people say it was created in india secondly thats like saying i wanna patent kung fu.i think americans want to believe that they r the best. the average american person is a moron who lives in his/her own narrow minded world. i think they also had tried to patent basmati rice. which everyone knows was first cultivated from india. Also americans have never had a war on their own soil after their civil war. thats y they're goin crazy over OBL.

may be we should patent 'the art of attacking as many countries as possible at once' which i believe is the sovereign right of the US, as revenge.

US of A cant patent Yoga its a part of a culture that is 5000 years old.

Patent should be canceled without a doubt.

i'm gonna patent breathing

We are gonna patent giving birth to babies, cause Indians are best at it. And refuse licencing to USA and enforce this patent, this would eliminate US totally without wars.

europe has a lower population density than asia coz of many reasons (black death, two world wars, several smaller wars, migration).

and consider north america, in 1750 there would have been only a few lakhs of native americans, but now due to migration and a SPECIAL TALENT of the people over there, its population is 30 - 35 crores.

and dont forget CHINA, where the govt fines people to restrain them from using their SPECIAL TALENT.

hence, we are not THE best but among the best.
