You wake making some reference to attribution. You didn't clarify what would be appropriate attribution in this case though.

> registering the name of a cultural item from another culture as your own trademark in another countries.

Which is an entirely different issue. Let me remind you the discussion was originally about people from other countries practicing Yoga.

> I never said one should give up any cultural artifact.

But you did say that cultural appropriation was not ethical. So, we can continue with it as long as we feel bad about it?

> Which is an entirely different issue.

Registering a trademark is a by-the-book example of claiming ownership of something. Especially when it goes together with introducing something to a population largely unaware of it.

> But you did say that cultural appropriation was not ethical.

Yes.

> So, we can continue with it as long as we feel bad about it?

No, and again, I never said that. I very clearly said that once attribution is given properly and mashups/variations are clearly identified there is no problem.

At this point I can't imagine that the attempts at arguing I'm reading are written in good faith and without an agenda.

I'm asking for the third time: What would be appropriate attribution for Yoga?

> At this point I can't imagine that the attempts at arguing I'm reading are written in good faith and without an agenda.

And what agenda would that be?
