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.

Hatha Yoga teaches us to use the body as the bow, asana as the arrow, and the soul the target.

The yogi learns to forget the past and takes no thought for the morrow. He lives in the eternal present.

Life means to be living.Problems will always be there. When they arise navigate through them with yoga- don't take a break.

If you open the armpits, the brain becomes light. You cannot brood or become depressed.

I am standing on my own altar; The poses are my prayers.

The battle of yoga is with the body and with the ego. You must conquer your ego, or small self, so that you can let your soul, your big Self, be victorious.
