I am old, and death inevitably approaches. But both birth and death are beyond the will of a human being. They are not my domain. I do not think about it. Yoga has taught me to think of only working to live a useful life...I will never stop learning, and it have tried to share some lessons with you. I do pray that my ending will be your beginning. The great rewards and the countless blessings of a life spent following the Inward Journey await you.

The sleeping tortoise takes all its limbs into its carapace. So does the yogi: going back into himself he does not see anything worldly any longer, he makes peace in himself.

As breath stills our mind, our energies are free to unhook from the senses and bend inward.

The beauty of a lake reflects the beauty around it. When the mind is still, the beauty of the Self is seen reflected in it.

I can remain thoughtfully thoughtless, It is not an empty mind.

Asanas penetrate deep into each layer of the body and ultimately into the consciousness itself.

Your body exists in the past and your mind exists in the future. In yoga, they come together in the present.
