Here is, in truth, the whole secret of Yoga, the science of the soul. The active turnings, the strident vibrations, of selfishness, lust and hate are to be stilled by meditation, by letting heart and mind dwell in spiritual life, by lifting up the heart to the strong, silent life above, which rests in the stillness of eternal love, and needs no harsh vibration to convince it of true being.

Undisturbed calmness of mind is attained by cultivating friendliness toward the happy, compassion for the unhappy, delight in the virtuous, and indifference toward the wicked.

A mind free from all disturbances is Yoga.

There is always a light within us that is free from all sorrow and grief, no matter how much we may be experiencing suffering.

The heart and mind can find peace and harmony by contemplating the transcendental nature of the true self as supreme effulgent life.

The longest journey begins with a single step.

Progress is mediation comes swiftly for those who try their hardest.
