“It is never too late in life to practice yoga”

There is no difference in souls, only the ideas about ourselves that we wear.

The yogi cannot be afraid to die, because he has brought life to every cell of his body. We are afraid to die, because we are afraid we have not lived. The yogi has lived.

When you are practicing, do not just do that for the sake of doing. Learn to reflect while you are practising. Make your mind and brain observe and relearn what you are doing. Doing is mechanical; learning is dynamic.

It is through the body that everything comes to the mind. It is through and with your body that you have to reach realization of being a spark of divinity. How can we neglect the temple of the spirit?

If you open the armpits, the brain becomes light. You cannot brood or become depressed.

Savasana is being without was, being without will be. It is being without anyone who is.

Do not aim low, you will miss the mark. Aim high and you will be on a threshold of bliss.

Do not stop trying just because perfection eludes you.

Sirsasana the king of all asanas and the reasons are not hard to find.

I don’t bring yesterday’s poses to today’s practice. I know yesterday’s poses, but when I practice today I become a beginner. I don’t want yesterday’s experience. I want to see what new understanding may come in addition to what I felt up to now.

The flexibility we gain in asana is the living symbol of the suppleness we gain in relation to life’s problems and challenges.

Yoga is more than physical. It is cellular, mental, intellectual and spiritual-it involves man in his entire being

Asanas penetrate deep into each layer of the body and ultimately into the consciousness itself.

When your body, mind and soul are healthy and harmonious, you will bring health and harmony to the world- not by withdrawing from the world, but by being a healthy, living organ of the body of humanity.

You must purge yourself before finding faults in others.

Yoga is a way of life; it is an art, a science, a philosophy.

Yoga is the music of the soul. So do continue, and the gates of the soul will open.

Yoga is the golden key that unlocks the door to peace, tranquility and joy.

Yoga is like music: the rhythm of the body, the melody of the mind, and the harmony of the soul create the symphony of life.

If you practice yoga every day with perseverance, you will be able to face the turmoil of life with steadiness and maturity.

The highest point of yesterday should be the lowest point of today

The pose begins when you want to leave it.

Healthy plants and trees yield abundant flowers and fruits. Similarly, from a healthy person, smiles and happiness shine forth like the rays of the sun.

The light that Yoga sheds on life is something special. It is transformative. It does not just change the way we see things; it transforms the person who sees.
