After a session of yoga, the mind becomes tranquil and passive.

The body is your temple. Keep it pure and clean for the soul to reside in.

Do not think of yourself as a small, compressed, suffering thing. Think of yourself as graceful and expanding, no matter how unlikely it may seem at the time.

Yoga is a light, which once lit, will never dim. The better your practice, the brighter the flame.

Hatha Yoga teaches us to use the body as the bow, asana as the arrow, and the soul the target.

Life without tapas, is like a heart without love.

The study of asana is not about mastering posture. It's about using posture to understand and transform yourself.

In an asana, the mind has to reach inside the body to find a quiet space until a point comes where perfect balance is felt.

Knowledge has a beginning but no end.

The primary aim of yoga is to restore the mind to simplicity, peace, and poise, to free it from confusion and distress.

I'm bad at letting go of things.

Every year I'm doing different projects, concerts, touring, open-air festivals.

I like globalization; I want to say it works, but it is hard to say that when six hundred million people are slipping backwards.

The stitch of a book is its words.

Now, if you don’t mind, I’m going to sit over here with my throbbing feet and bleed in silence until we get to our destination. (Syn)

People don't listen to understand. They listen to reply. The collective monologue is everyone talking and no one listening.
