Many ask me whether pranayama ... postpones old age. Why worry about it? Death is certain. Let it come when it comes. Just keep working. The soul has no age. It doesn't die. Only the body decays. And yet, we must never forget the body, since it is the garden we must cherish and cultivate.

The light that Yoga sheds on life is something special. It is transformative. It does not just change the way we see things; it transforms the person who sees.

If you practice yoga every day with perseverance, you will be able to face the turmoil of life with steadiness and maturity.

Extension brings space, space brings freedom, freedom brings precision. Precision is truth.

Pranayama teaches the aspirant to regulate his breathing and thereby control the mind.
