“A natural talent is required; for, when Nature opposes, everything else is in vain; but when Nature leads the way to what is most excellent, instruction in the art takes place, which the student must try to appropriate to himself by reflection, becoming an early pupil in a place well adapted for instruction.

“I am fond of reminding my yoga students of the saying "It takes one to know one" when they become lost I condemnation and judgment of others.
