Whenever asana is done mechanically from the front brain, the action is felt only on the peripheral body, and there is no inner sensation, there is no luminous inner light. If the asana is done with continual reference to the back of the brain, there is a reaction to each action, and there is sensitivity. Then life is not only dynamic, but it is also electrified with life force.

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

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.

Asana done from the brain makes one heavy and done from the heart makes one light.

The pose begins when you want to leave it.

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

Yoga is the method by which the restless mind is calmed And the energy directed into constructive channels.
