You have to create love and affection for your body, for what it can do for you. Love must be incarnated in the smallest pore of the skin, the smallest cell of the body to make them intelligent so they can collaborate with all the other ones, in the big republic of the body. This love must radiate from you to others.
B.K.S. IyengarAsanas penetrate deep into each layer of the body and ultimately into the consciousness itself.
B.K.S. IyengarHappy is the man who knows how to distinguish the real from the unreal, the eternal from the transient and the good from the pleasant by his discrimination and wisdom.
B.K.S. IyengarYour body exists in the past and your mind exists in the future. In yoga, they come together in the present.
B.K.S. IyengarAs a mighty river which when properly harnessed by dams and canals, creates a vast reservoir of water, prevents famine and provides abundant power for industry; so also the mind, when controlled, provides a reservoir of peace and generates abundant energy for the human uplift.
B.K.S. Iyengar
