The beauty of a lake reflects the beauty around it. When the mind is still, the beauty of the Self is seen reflected in it.

When you see a mistake in somebody else, try to find if you are making the same mistake.

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.

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

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 practice of yogasana for the sake of health, to keep fit, or to maintain flexibility is the external practice of yoga. While this is a legitimate place to begin, it is not the end.

The aim of yoga is to calm the chaos of conflicting impulses.
