Approach each asana with freshness every day.

The body is my temple, asanas are my prayers.

You cannot do yoga. Yoga is your natural state.

You are only as young as your spine is flexible.

Activity and passivity must go together in asanas.

The brain is the hardest part of the body to adjust in asanas.

Sirsasana the king of all asanas and the reasons are not hard to find.

Yoga is the fountain of youth. You're only as young as your spine is flexible.

The asanas are useful maps to explore yourself, but they are not the territory.

Each asana is like a piece of music that has a certain characteristic, a certain power.

Asana is perfect firmness of body, steadiness of intelligence, and benevolence of spirit.

The practice of 'asanas' and 'pranayama' wards off disease and helps to maintain alertness.

Asanas penetrate deep into each layer of the body and ultimately into the consciousness itself.

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

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

Yoga has expanded beyond asana for me. It's how I live my life and currently I'm throwing myself into a meditation practice.

The flexibility we gain in asana is the living symbol of the suppleness we gain in relation to life’s problems and challenges.

Do not allow past experiences to be imprinted on your mind. Perform asana each time with a fresh mind and with a fresh approach.

Asanas maintain the strength and health of the body, without which little progress can be made. Asanas keep the body in harmony with nature

You cannot do yoga. Yoga is your natural state. What you can do are yoga exercises, which may reveal to you where you are resisting your natural state.

When our minds are purified through karma (selfless action) and made single-pointed through up-asana (worship), we cannot remain satisfied with the small achievements in worldly life.

When the asana is correct, there is lightness, a freedom. Freedom comes when every part of the body is active. Let us be free in whatever posture we are doing. Let us be full in whatever we do.

You must fill every inch of your body with the asana from your chest and arms and legs to the tips of your fingers and toes so that the asana radiates from the core of your body and fills the entire diameter and circumference of your limbs. You must feel your intelligence, your awareness, and your consciousness in every inch of your body.
