Yoga is the settling of the mind into silence. When the mind has settled, we are established in our essential nature, which is unbounded Consciousness. Our essential nature is usually overshadowed by the activity of the mind.

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.

Yoga is the cessation of the movements of the mind. Then there is abiding in the Seer's own form.

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

The Yoga of action, leading to union with the soul is fiery aspiration, spiritual reading and devotion to Ishvara.

When you are inspired by some great purpose, some extraordinary project, all your thoughts break their bonds.

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