I've done a little yoga, not as a professional, and every time I have a good teacher I see the immense possibilities and subtleties in this discipline. It's a little bit like music.

Everything has to come through the senses, as though the soul is speaking out through the senses.

Healthy attention is to improve what can be improved and to accept what we cannot improve.

It is clear that our society can improve only if the next generation is given the chance, through loving and intelligent education, to be better developed than the present one.

There is light. There is darkness. There is high and there is low. But in the world now it seems to me this struggle between light and darkness is more evident than ever.

The practice of yoga certainly is a fantastic practice. I only wish I would do it more. I find I can do it alone but it is much better if I have some guidance. Although I can do it alone it is a little bit sloppy. Ultimately, all of those techniques try to bring more oxygen to the brain. We can think and love better if we have more oxygen.

Habitual caution ties and binds us; it is as if we were dressed always in clothes and shoes that were several sizes too small.
