The Yogi conquers the body by the practice of asanas, making the body a fit vehicle for the spirit. The Yogi knows that it is a necessary vehicle for the spirit, for a soul without a body is like a bird deprived of its power to fly.

Is it necessary to practice all these asanas, further and further? Is it necessary to develop scientific researches further and further? To a yogi, the body is a laboratory, a field of experiments and perpetual researches.

It is through the body that everything comes to the mind. It is through and with your body that you have to reach realization of being a spark of divinity. How can we neglect the temple of the spirit?

There is no progress toward ultimate freedom without transformation, and this is the key issue in all lives.

Relaxation: In. Every. Pose. There. Should. Be. Repose.

Penetration of our mind is our goal, but in the beginning to set things in motion, there is no substitute for sweat.

Change leads to disappointment if it is not sustained. Transformation is sustained change, and it is achieved through practice.
