Fortunately, deep within us, there is a direct connection to the Divine. There is a part of our being that is beyond the personal self. You can consciously choose to identify with that part, rather than with the psyche or the body. When you do this, a natural transformation begins to take place within.

- Michael Singer

A single event can awaken within us a stranger totally unknown to us. To live is to be slowly born.

Today, look at every person as an individual manifestation of the one whole Life.​

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

- T. Krishnamacharya

If you want the moon, do not hide at night. If you want a rose, do not run from the thorns. If you want Love, do not hide from yourself.

The happiness which comes from long practice, which leads to the end of suffering, which at first is like poison, but at last like nectar - this kind of happiness arises from the serenity of one's own mind.
