In his inaugural address, Heggade said, "Health is the form of wealth that multiplies when it is given. Yoga, one of the most ideal means of sustaining health is a gift given to the world by India. It is Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s efforts that yoga has got international recognition and June 21 is celebrated as International Yoga Day. Today, in this fast paced competitive world the pursuit for worldly desires and momentary happiness has led to a host of lifestyle related diseases like diabetes, heart disease, stroke and cancer. People are taking recourse to naturopathy and yoga in big way for health promotion or wellness, prevention and cure. Naturopathy teaches us to live in tune with nature adopting minimalistic living which is in line with the yogic wisdom of shunning materialistic pursuits and happiness."
