One has to see oneself through one's actions, works, and mind. Knowing the Self by the self is not as easy as writing that line. A #‎ yogi sees things in every movement he makes, maybe when practicing, maybe when teaching, or maybe when talking to people. You should have courage in your convictions and pursue what is dear to you all these years.

Training of the mind and body leads to awareness of the soul

When the mind is controlled and still what remains is the soul

Anything physical is always changing, therefore, its reality is not constant, not eternal.

Extension brings space, space brings freedom, freedom brings precision. Precision is truth.

Mind is the king of the senses; breath is the king of the mind; and the nerves are king of the breath.

Yoga is an interior penetration leading to integration of being, senses, breath, mind, intelligence, consciousness, and Self. It is definitely an inward journey, evolution through involution, toward the Soul, which in turn desires to emerge and embrace you in its glory.
