B.K.S. IyengarAs a mighty river which when properly harnessed by dams and canals, creates a vast reservoir of water, prevents famine and provides abundant power for industry; so also the mind, when controlled, provides a reservoir of peace and generates abundant energy for the human uplift.
B.K.S. IyengarKeep your attention internal, not external, not worrying about what others see, but what the Self sees.
