There is always a light within us that is free from all sorrow and grief, no matter how much we may be experiencing suffering.

Be happy for those who are happy, have compassion towards the unhappy, and maintain equanimity towards the wicked.

Where the heart is full of kindness which seeks no injury to another, either in act or thought or wish, this full love creates an atmosphere of harmony, whose benign power touches with healing all who come within its influence. Peace in the heart radiates peace to other hearts, even more surely than contention breeds contention.

Yoga is a practical method for making one's life purposeful, useful and noble.

When there is firm conquest over covetousness, they who have conquered it wake up to the how and why of life.

Just as the pure crystal takes color from the object which is nearest to it, so the mind, when it is cleared of thought-waves, achieves sameness or identity with the object of its concentration.

Undisturbed calmness of mind is attained by cultivating friendliness toward the happy, compassion for the unhappy, delight in the virtuous, and indifference toward the wicked.
