You are the cause of your own joy or your own misery. You hold that power. You are your own friend and your own enemy.

[C]ontinence is a very important part of yoga. If a handful of people come forward with strong wills, nothing is impossible. One Buddha changed half the globe; one Jesus, three quarters of the world. We all have that capacity. (140)

Yoga is not only learning to stand on your head but also learning to stand on your feet.

The light is within. It is already there. Take your time to see it.

Don't give up your power to change things. Negativity and unhappiness are caused by you. You can change your attitude.

Peace comes not from doing, but from undoing; not from getting, but from letting go.

God knows your breaking point. You simply don’t know your own strength.
