We are a little piece of continual change, looking at an infinite quantity of continual change.

The aim of yoga is to calm the chaos of conflicting impulses.

The body is my temple, asanas are my prayers.

Death is unimportant to a yogi; he does not mind when he is going to die. What happens after death is immaterial to him. He is only concerned with life-with how he can use his life for the betterment of humanity. Having undergone various types of pain in his life and having acquired a certain mastery over pain, he develops compassion to help society and maintains himself in purity and holiness. The yogi has no interest beyond that.

You have to create love and affection for your body, for what it can do for you. Love must be incarnated in the smallest pore of the skin, the smallest cell of the body to make them intelligent so they can collaborate with all the other ones, in the big republic of the body. This love must radiate from you to others.

Yoga is a light, which once lit, will never dim. The better your practice, the brighter the flame.

Yoga allows you to rediscover a sense of wholeness in your life.
