Death is unimportant to a yogi; he does not mind when he is going to die. What happens after death is immaterial to him. He is only concerned with life-with how he can use his life for the betterment of humanity. Having undergone various types of pain in his life and having acquired a certain mastery over pain, he develops compassion to help society and maintains himself in purity and holiness. The yogi has no interest beyond that.

The brain is the hardest part of the body to adjust in asanas.

Extension brings space, space brings freedom, freedom brings precision. Precision is truth.

We have two physical eyes, but every pore of the body is also an eye.

Anything physical is always changing, therefore, its reality is not constant, not eternal.

The practice of asanas purges the body of its impurities, bringing strength, firmness, calm, and clarity of mind.

Yoga teaches us to cure what need not be endured and endure what cannot be cured.
