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.
B.K.S. IyengarWhile doing the postures, your mind should be in half-consciousn ess, which does not mean sleep. It means silence, emptiness, space, which can then be filled with an acute awareness of the sensations given by the posture. You watch yourself from inside. It is a full silence.
B.K.S. IyengarAs breath stills our mind, our energies are free to unhook from the senses and bend inward.
