Many ask me whether pranayama ... postpones old age. Why worry about it? Death is certain. Let it come when it comes. Just keep working. The soul has no age. It doesn't die. Only the body decays. And yet, we must never forget the body, since it is the garden we must cherish and cultivate.
B.K.S. Iyengar

I don't stretch my body as if it is an object. I do yoga from the self towards the body, not the other way around.
