I consider this as an important recognition of the global influence of Indian culture, especially Yoga and Ayurveda.
This wax figure symbolizes much more than my personal journey. It represents the ancient and spiritual wisdom of India which is based on the principles of 'Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam' and "Sarve Bhavantu Sukhinah, Sarve Santu Niramaya” which present the ideal of life.
Furthermore, I would like to express my gratitude to Madame Tussauds for this honor and all those who have embraced the teachings of Yoga and Ayurveda. Let us continue to share this Indian heritage with the world, and foster a healthier and more harmonious global community.”
