Yoga is not just an exercise system. Yoga is the science of obliterating the boundaries of individuality to know the universality of one's existence.

Yesterday lives only in your mind.

With yoga, people can be totally drunk all the time, but one hundred percent stable and alert. This cannot happen by drinking something or taking in a chemical. This can happen only if you are producing and consuming your own narcotic! And nature has given you this possibility. There has been a lot of research in the last couple of decades, and a particular scientist found that in the human brain, there are millions of cannabis receptors. If you simply keep your body in a certain way, the body will produce its own narcotic, and the brain is waiting to receive it. It is only because the human body produces its own narcotic that feelings of peace, pleasure and joy can happen within you without any stimulus from outside. When the scientist wanted to give this chemical an appropriate name, he went through various scriptures around the world and could not find anything that he was satisfied with. Then he came down to India and found the word ananda, or bliss. So he called it Anandamide. If you generate a sufficient amount of Anandamide in your system, then you can be drunk all the time, but fully awake, wide awake.

When you experience life just the way it is, you're naturally in union, It's not that right now you are not in union but you are unconsciously in a state of union but if you become consciously in that state, if you experience the union or the oneness of the existence consciously, if you experience the entire cosmos as a part of yourself, then we say you are in yoga or you are a yogi.

When conclusions are destroyed, confusion happens. Being joyfully confused about everything in the universe is a good state to be in. This means you are constantly paying attention to everything.

Consciousness gives you the possibility to become free from your tendencies. Even if you have been ruled by all kinds of tendencies until this moment, if you respond fully consciously now, there will be a distance between you and the accumulated tendencies that you have.

Truth is not in the words you speak, it is in the way you hold the life within you.

Never look up to anyone – never look down on anyone. When you see all the way they are, you shall navigate life effectively.

The body is like an antenna – if you hold it in the right position it can just grasp everything in existence.

Science looks outward for its knowing. But mysticism looks inward for this knowing.
