More quotes by B.K.S. Iyengar
Yoga allows you to find an inner peace that is not ruffled and riled by the endless stresses and struggles of life.
B.K.S. Iyengar
I also say with backbends, you have to be cautiously bold. Not carelessly bold. You have to descend to the dictation of the spine. You cannot command from the brain to do the poses. As you play with a child, guarding the child from injuries, similarly you have to play in backbends, guarding your spine.
B.K.S. Iyengar
A good teacher helps you explore the maximum.
B.K.S. Iyengar

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
As the trunk is one but the branches are many, yoga is one but adaptations may vary.
B.K.S. Iyengar
Do not aim low, you will miss the mark. Aim high and you will be on a threshold of bliss.
B.K.S. Iyengar
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.
B.K.S. Iyengar
Yoga has a threefold impact on health. It keeps healthy people healthy, it inhibits the development of diseases, and it aids recovery from ill health.
B.K.S. Iyengar
Is it necessary to practice all these asanas, further and further? Is it necessary to develop scientific researches further and further? To a yogi, the body is a laboratory, a field of experiments and perpetual researches.
B.K.S. Iyengar
