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

Focus on keeping your spine straight. It is the job of the spine to keep the brain alert.

Intellectuals tend to be arrogant. Intelligence, like money, is a good servant but a bad master. When practicing pranayama, the yogi [makes] himself humble and without pride in his intellectual attainments.

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.

Learning is as much an art as teaching

Where does the body end and the mind begin? Where does the mind end and the spirit begin? They cannot be divided as they are inter-related and but different aspects of the same all-pervading divine consciousness.

I can remain thoughtfully thoughtless, It is not an empty mind.
