Yoga teaching is that you're not your dark side or your woo-woo, you're pure awareness. Our job is to begin to gain that discrimination and insight so we can separate from our identification.

I have a son, and I was married for twenty years, and I got divorced, and there's a new woman in my life, and my son is 18, and I'm interested to see how he's growing.

It's going to be over fairly soon; it goes by quick. Even if I live till I'm one hundred, it's quick.

I just think that the reality of life is impermanence. That's the foundation of understanding what Yoga is, and we're here for however long we're here, and then it's over. And I've known this since I was a kid.

Your experience is nutrition. You digest your experience and you grow from it.

When I was twenty, and my family were business people, and I had disappeared to India and they were like, "What are you doing?" I had a good relationship with them, and it wasn't like a rejection or anything, but they couldn't understand why I was going to India.

We all have a dark side, and we have to confront our dark side. That's pop American psychology.
