The physical body is not only a temple for our soul, but the means by which we embark on the inward journey toward the core.

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

We often fool ourselves that we are concentrating because we fix our attention on wavering objects.

The body is the prop for the soul. So why not let the body be propped by a wall or a block?

As a breeze ruffles the surface of a lake and distorts the images reflected therein, so also the chitta vrtti (fluctuations of mind) disturb the peace of the mind. The still waters of a lake reflect the beauty around it. When the mind is still, the beauty of the Self is seen reflected in it.

Words cannot convey the value of yoga - it has to be experienced.

There is no difference in our souls...That is what yoga teaches. When you and I meet together, we forget ourselves -- our cultures and classes. There are no divisions, and we talk mind to mind, soul to soul. We are no different in our deepest needs. We are all humans.
