Spirituality is not some external goal that one must seek, but a part of the divine core of each of us, which we must reveal.

The art of teaching is tolerance. Humbleness is the art of learning.

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

The challenge of yoga is to go beyond our limits - within reason. We continually expand the frame of the mind by using the canvas of the body. It is as if you were to stretch a canvas more and create a larger surface for a painting. But we must respect the present form of our body. If you pull too much at once, we will rip the canvas. If the practice of today damages the practice of tomorrow, it is not correct practice.

Love begets courage, moderation creates abundance and humility generates power. Courage without love is brutish. Abundance without moderation leads to over-indulgence and decay. Power without humility breeds arrogance and tyranny.

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

Knowledge of yoga is no substitute for practice.
