When you inhale, you are taking the strength from God. When you exhale, it represents the service you are giving to the world.

The yogi cannot be afraid to die, because he has brought life to every cell of his body. We are afraid to die, because we are afraid we have not lived. The yogi has lived.

A stable mind is like the hub of a wheel. The world may spin around you, but the mind is steady.

The decision to relax rather than to grip, even in the face of impatience or fear, is a conscious and brave choice.

The cure to combat the three Ss- stress, strain, and speed- can be found in three Ws- the work of devoted practice, the wisdom that comes of understanding the self and the world, and worship because ultimately surrendering to what we cannot control allows the ego to relax and lose the anxiety of its own infinitesimally small self in the infinitude of the divine.

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

Life itself seeks fulfillment as plants seek sunlight.
