You have to create love and affection for your body, for what it can do for you. Love must be incarnated in the smallest pore of the skin, the smallest cell of the body to make them intelligent so they can collaborate with all the other ones, in the big republic of the body. This love must radiate from you to others.
B.K.S. IyengarThe breath must be enticed or cajoled, like catching a horse in a field, not by chasing after it, but by standing still with an apple in oneโs hand.
B.K.S. IyengarIf the foundation is firm the building can withstand calamities. The practice of yoga is the foundation so that the self is not shaken under any circumstances.
