“Breath is the king of mind.”

I always tell people, live happily and die majestically.

I don’t stretch my body as if it is an object. I do yoga from the self towards the body, not the other way around.

The aim of yoga is to calm the chaos of conflicting impulses.

When stability becomes a habit, maturity and clarity follow.

Yoga allows you to rediscover a sense of wholeness in your life.

Love begets courage, moderation creates abundance and humility generates power

It is through the alignment of the body that I discovered the alignment of my mind, self, and intelligence.

Yoga allows you to find a new kind of freedom that you may not have known even existed.

Move from the known to the unknown.

Yoga is when every cell of the body sings the song of the soul.

Fear and fatigue block the mind. Face both, then courage and confidence flows into you.

While doing the postures, your mind should be in half-consciousn ess, which does not mean sleep. It means silence, emptiness, space, which can then be filled with an acute awareness of the sensations given by the posture. You watch yourself from inside. It is a full silence.

Yoga is firstly for individual growth, but through individual growth, society and community develop.

A yogi’s brain extends from the bottom of the foot to the top of his head

Balance in the body is the foundation for balance in life.

There is no progress toward ultimate freedom without transformation, and this is the key issue in all lives.

What can a pencil do for all of us? Amazing things. It can write transcendent poetry, uplifting music, or life-changing equations

There is nothing more inspiring than having a mind unfold before you. Let people teach who have a calling. It is never just a job.

To create is, first and foremost, to create time.

Wonder rather than doubt is the root of all knowledge.

You feel your strength in the experience of pain.

It is a sad commentary of our times when our young must seek advice and counsel from ‘Dear Abby’ instead of going to Mom and Dad.

Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever… it remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything.

It is yet a fact that today, as in the past, the most inspiring and provocative works in photography come as much (and probably more) from those who are in the first place artists.
