In whatever you are doing, be one: body, soul, mind. Do it beautifully and with purity.

As long as the body is not in perfect health, you think about it, and that prevents you from thinking of the mind. The sound mind is a sound body.

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.

I think many of my students have followed the advice I gave years ago, to give more than you take.

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

Yoga is a mirror to look at ourselves from within.

If you have the right mind, your body can do anything.
