Quote by Deep A Yogi Friend

“Yoga is freedom—the stillness beyond thoughts and emotions. For just five minutes, watch every thought and feeling that arises. See them as passing clouds, not yours to hold. In this awareness, taste the profound freedom that is already within you.”

“The way I touch earth and heaven at once, stretching from soil to sky. The way the mat holds my feet and my feet hold me. The way it seems so simple, something to be brushed off as ‘too easy,’ and the way it is actually foundational. The way I know that when I am in it, I am it— unshakeable no matter what winds blow or rains pour down. It is as if I remain, eternal, undaunted, majestic. —mountain pose”

“We are nature. Our bodies carry its swimming waters. We are made of the soil and eat the plants that grow from it. From dust to dust we come and go. Each time I bring my hands to my heart in prayer, flowing my body with my breath, it is devotional, a dance with the earth and of the earth. I dance with every tree, sway with the wind, bloom with every flower in my being. My breath, Mother Earth, is yours. —the whole planet is in me”

“Life on the Mat “I roll it out and step inside a world of self-discovery, mine. Here is where I challenge myself, to learn just how to be myself… to grow and reach and stretch and sweat, I push my boundaries, no regrets. For this is where I seem to be, a stronger, better newer me. And when my body’s fully spent, my spirit takes a forward step, I contemplate the wisdom’s known, relinquished now, in Child’s pose.”

“When I learned about santosha, yoga's version of contentment, it seemed right up there with enlightenment in terms of what I could accomplish in this lifetime. Cultivate a sense of being all right with who I was and what I had? Impossible. To me, contentment was fleeting and based on whether I'd gotten what I wanted, usually from some outside source. But santosha proposed a contentment that could be intentionally cultivated, independent of the external sources of happiness and value we usually count on and measure ourselves by. Santosha is being okay with what we have and who we are, right now.”

“It is recorded in the two Sahihs that the Prophet, God grant him blessing and peace, said: “Shun the seven destroyers.’’ They said, “What are they?’’ He said, “Ascribing partners to God, sorcery, killing a soul that God has forbidden except justly, consuming usury, consuming an orphan’s property, fleeing from the battlefield, and slandering chaste, innocent believing women.”
