Summary edit

Media data and Non-free use rationale
Description	Sample of Swami Vishnu-devananda's "Soorya Namaskar", described by Elliot Goldberg as a "new utilitarian conception of Surya Namaskar".
Author or copyright owner	Swami Vishnu-devananda
Source (WP:NFCC#4)	Original publication: The Complete Illustrated Book of Yoga Immediate source: Own scan of book
Date of publication	1960
Use in article (WP:NFCC#7)	Surya Namaskar
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8)	Illustrate what Elliott Goldberg calls the "new utilitarian conception of Surya Namaskar" introduced by Vishnu-devananda, devoid of spiritual content, and "not treatment for a host of diseases but fitness exercise"
Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1)	It is this exact sequence, performed by Vishnu-devananda himself and included in his book, that is the subject of discussion, so no free alternative is possible.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3)	This is the only image anywhere on Wikipedia of Vishnu-devananda's Surya Namaskar sequence. It is used at extremely poor resolution, and it represents only one third of the whole sequence. It is used only in this one article.
Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2)	Some 60 years have elapsed since the book's publication, with the images at far better resolution than the small multiple-image thumbnail shown here.
