Yoga is like music: the rhythm of the body, the melody of the mind, and the harmony of the soul create the symphony of life.

When an asana is done correctly the body movements are smooth, there is lightness in the body and freedom in the mind.

Regarding perfection, that's a very difficult question. I can say that I have superseded most in my sadhana [practice]. I am in it, and my mind and my intelligence gets better in my sadhana, and it reaches a certain place. When I stretch, I stretch in such a way that my awareness moves, and a gate of awareness finally opens... My body is a laboratory, you can say. I don't stretch my body as if it is an object. I do yoga from the self towards the body, not the other way around.

Why think of liberation at some future time? Liberation is in the little things, here and now.
