Everybody is in the waiting room of life. Yoga is not a waiting. It is a doing, today.

It is best to think of karma, not so much in terms of physical action, but as waveforms of vibratory energy.

Many of the people I work with I've worked with in other lifetimes. I moved to California because I knew that many of my students from past lives were in California.

I respect self-giving and I've tried to lead my life with that as the ideal. But real self-giving is when we take our being, that which is most precious to us, and we throw it into eternity with a total sense of offering.

You've gained some powers by your entrance into other dimensions and you use them to attack others or to make others miserable, then power reverses on you and it pulls you apart because it's not supposed to be used that way.

The world is wonderful. It is beautiful when you are in a correct level of attention.

What makes us happy is to have a spiritual experience ... that experience of ecstasy in the deepest meditation; that's happiness.
