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

Health is not a commodity to be bargained for. It has to be earned through sweat.

It is through the body that everything comes to the mind. It is through and with your body that you have to reach realization of being a spark of divinity. How can we neglect the temple of the spirit?

You must fill every inch of your body with the asana from your chest and arms and legs to the tips of your fingers and toes so that the asana radiates from the core of your body and fills the entire diameter and circumference of your limbs. You must feel your intelligence, your awareness, and your consciousness in every inch of your body.

The supreme adventure in a man’s life is his journey back to his Creator. To reach the goal he needs well developed and co-ordinated functioning of his body, senses, mind, reason and Self.

Live before you die, so that death is also a lively celebration.

What I was is unimportant, what I am now is important.
