Our number system was invented by the Hindus: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9. Do you use those evil Hindu numbers?

Apples and oranges.

Apples and oranges.

So, in other works, it doesn't matter that our numbers were invented by the Hindus, especially that great convenience, the number zero. Those Hindu numbers are simply very useful for calculating.

In the same way is yoga. It doesn't matter that it was invented by Hindus. It is a good discipline to keep the body supple even in old age.
