Focus on keeping your spine straight. It is the job of the spine to keep the brain alert.
B.K.S. IyengarIn whatever you are doing, be one: body, soul, mind. Do it beautifully and with purity.
B.K.S. IyengarThe hardness of a diamond is part of its usefulness, but its true value is in the light that shines through it.
B.K.S. IyengarFor me there were only two ways on the precipice - either I have to fall in or I have to fall out, to accept or say good-bye. The moment I crossed the precipice, it no longer was a discipline - it became a passion, an urge to pursue. Then I experienced freedom. Freedom comes when the discipline revolutionizes the discipline as a passion for the art.
