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.

When I practice, I am a philosopher. When I teach, I am a scientist. When I demonstrate, I am an artist.

Yoga allows you to find an inner peace that is not ruffled and riled by the endless stresses and struggles of life.

There is no difference in souls, only the ideas about ourselves that we wear.

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.

Yoga releases the creative potential in life.

We have two physical eyes, but every pore of the body is also an eye.
