Do not stop trying just because perfection eludes you.

Yoga is a way of life; it is an art, a science, a philosophy.

By drawing our senses of perception inward, we are able to experience the control, silence, and quietness of the mind.

The ribs are the wings of the body. Open your wings.

The whole thrust of yogic philosophical and scientific inquiry has therefore been to examine the nature of being, with a view to learning to respond to the stresses of life without so many tremors and troubles.

While doing the postures, your mind should be in half-consciousn ess, which does not mean sleep. It means silence, emptiness, space, which can then be filled with an acute awareness of the sensations given by the posture. You watch yourself from inside. It is a full silence.

There must be relaxation in full extension.
