Yoga is the cessation of mind.

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.

Success is nearest to those whose efforts are intense and sincere.

In deep meditation the flow of concentration is continuous like the flow of oil.

Perfection in asana is achieved when the effort to perform it becomes effortless and the infinite being within is reached.

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

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