“Health is not a commodity to be bargained for. It has to be earned through sweat.”

Breath is the vehicle of consciousness and so, by its slow measured observation and distribution, we learn to tug our attention away from external desires toward a judicious, intelligent awareness.

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.

The art of teaching is tolerance. Humbleness is the art of learning.

To be dull is easy, to be active requires tremendous work.

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

The lotus grows in muddy waters but this flower does not show any trace of it: So we have to live in the world.

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

The pose begins when you want to leave it.

Awareness must be like the rays of the sun: extending everywhere, illuminating all.

Yoga is an art, a science and a philosophy. It touches the life of man at every level, physical, mental, and spiritual. It is a practical method for making one’s life purposeful, useful and noble.

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.

Health is a state of complete harmony of the body, mind and spirit.

The needs of the body are the needs of the divine self, which lives through the body.

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.

Yoga is effort. Only practice is important. The rest of knowledge is only theory.

How can you know God if you don’t know your big toe?

Social order at the expense of liberty is hardly a bargain.

If I were God – and I never understand why I’m not – I should say, “Shop around, I don’t think you’ll find a better bargain than here.”

A bargain is something you don’t need at a price you can’t resist.

I said we are Ghodratis and there’s nothing that Ghodratis like more than a bargain.

Experience is never at bargain price.

When you experience loss, people say you’ll move through the 5 stages of grief: Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression, Acceptance. What they don’t tell you is that you’ll cycle through them all every day.

This climate law is surrender – because nature doesn’t bargain and you cannot make ”deals” with physics. And we will not allow you to surrender on our future.

The only thing better than finding something you are looking for is finding something you weren’t looking for at a great bargain!
