B.K.S. Iyengar
In your discipline, if doubt comes, let it come. You do your work and let doubt carry on with its work. And let us see which gives up first!
B.K.S. Iyengar
Yoga is the rule book for playing the game of Life, but in this game no one needs to lose. It is tough, and you need to train hard. It requires the willingness to think for yourself, to observe and correct, and to surmount occasional setbacks. It demands honesty, sustained application, and above all love in your heart.
B.K.S. Iyengar
Don't practice for cosmetic beauty, practice for cosmic beauty. Practice for inner beauty and inner light.
B.K.S. Iyengar
Awareness must be like the rays of the sun: extending everywhere, illuminating all.
B.K.S. Iyengar
The supreme adventure in a man’s life is his journey back to his Creator. To reach the goal he needs well developed and co-ordinated functioning of his body, senses, mind, reason and Self.
B.K.S. Iyengar
Feeling the movement of movements is wandering to the past or future. Living in the movements of movement is being in the present.
B.K.S. Iyengar
There is only one reality, but there are many ways that reality can be interpreted.

We are a little piece of continual change, looking at an infinite quantity of continual change.
