Be it the 'naan roti' or 'turmeric latte', the West has a knack for stealing things from our culture, westernising it and giving it a new name. And each time, the internet has fun trolling them unabashedly.

Seems like, politician Shashi Tharoor is the newest person to school the West. A US website recently took to Twitter, to publish one of their articles talking about 'Cardiac Coherence Breathing' or in simpler words the age-old technique Pranayama.

The article said, "Cardiac coherence breathing exercises can stabilize the heartbeat and have a powerful ability to dampen anxiety." Which is basically what we have all been doing our entire life whenever we practice yoga.

After seeing the article, Tharoor tweeted it with the caption, "Detailed description of the benefits of the 2500-year-old Indian technique of pranayama, dressed up in 21st c. scientific language as "cardiac coherence breathing"! It's taking the West a few millennia to learn what our ancients taught us millennia ago, but hey, you're welcome..."

And obviously, the tweet has been going viral ever since, with people trolling the website for stealing a 2,500-year-old Indian technique and giving it a western name.

While one Twitter user called cardiac coherence breathing the next turmeric latte, another user said Indians should start copyrighting all their age-old techniques. Internet truly had the best reaction to the thread:

Cardiac coherence breathing is the next turmeric latte ?? #pranayama zibi (@zibijamal) January 29, 2019

Not a bad suggestion, though.

Ahoy! Pranayama rechristened to cardiac coherence breathing...Time to copyright ©?all our ancient techniques??????? January 29, 2019

When will they understand?

This is not cardiac coherence breathing. Its Anulom Vilom Pranayama. Just like "that" was not Super Brain Yoga. It was Uthak Baithak. ?? @sciam #scam Aniket Gune (@AniketGune) January 29, 2019

True that, what a name!
