  • Inhale, and God approaches you. Hold the inhalation, and God remains with you. Exhale, and you approach God. Hold the exhalation, and surrender to God.

  • Nowadays, the practice of yoga stops with just asanas. Very few even attempt dharana and dhyana (deeper meditation) with seriousness. There is a need to search once more and reestablish the practice and value of yoga in modern times.

  • Let your speech be true and sweet.

  • Rid your body of its impurities, let your speech be true and sweet, feel friendship for the world, and with humility seek wealth and knowledge.

  • In the practice of Yoga one can emphasize the body, the mind or the self and hence the effort can never be fruitless.

  • Master your breath, let the self be in bliss, contemplate on the sublime within you.

  • Meditation results in marvels.

  • No one is wise by birth, for wisdom results from one own's efforts.

  • Regulate the breath, be happy, link the mind with the Lord in your heart.

  • Knowing all objects to be impermanent, let not their contact blind you, resolve again and again to be aware of the Self that is permanent.

  • Never be in debt. Never reside near enemies. Never trap your body through disease. Never forget the Lord with his consort who resides in the heart.

  • Teach what is inside you. Not as it applies to you, to yourself, but as it applies to the other.

  • Where is the delusion when truth is known? Where is the disease when the mind is clear? Where is death when the Breath is controlled? Therefore surrender to Yoga.

  • Why do we need money beyond a point? If we are free of ill health, enmity, and debt, is that not enough? Too much money only leads to less peace.
