'Yoga and ayurveda are wellness therapies that find their origins in ancient India. So this museum will act as a one-point source centre for those interested to know about the art of healing,' Azad told reporters at the inauguration.
The museum displays various yoga mudras and forms of performing arts through digital media. It also houses a learning recourse centre that provides literature on Ayurveda and naturopathy.
