B.K.S. Iyengar Quotes About Heart

• You must do the asana with your soul. How can you do an asana with your soul? We can only do it with the organ of the body that is closest to the soul - the heart. So a virtuous asana is done from the heart and not from the head. Then you are not just doing it, but you are in it. Many people try to think their way into an asana, but you must instead feel your way into it through love and devotion

  Corazón, Pensamiento, Gente

• He who has learnt to control his tongue has attained self-control in a great measure. When such a person speaks he will be heard with respect and attention. His words will be remembered, for they will be good and true. When one who is established in truth prays with a pure heart, then things he really needs come to him when they are really needed: he does not have to run after them. The man firmly established in truth gets the fruit of his actions without apparently doing anything. God, the source of all truth, supplies his needs and looks after his welfare.

• As long as you do not feel the serenity in the body, in each and every joint, there is no chance for emancipation. You are in bondage. So while you are sweating and aching, let your heart be light and let it fill your body with gladness. You are not only becoming free, but you are also being free. What is not to be glad about? The pain is temporary. The freedom is permanent.

• El yoga es el libro de reglas para jugar al juego de la Vida, pero en este juego nadie necesita perder. Es duro y hay que entrenarse duro. Requiere la voluntad de pensar por uno mismo, de observar y corregir, y de superar los reveses ocasionales. Exige honestidad, aplicación sostenida y, sobre todo, amor en el corazón.

• In Savasana or in meditation, the light of the eyes is drawn towards the lotus of the heart, so that the seat of the intelligence of the head is brought into contact with the seat of the intelligence of the heart, which is called the mind. Thus one passes from the individualistic state of consciousness to the universal state of consciousness. It is the merging of the intellect of the brain with the intellect of the soul.

  B.K.S. Iyengar

  Corazón, Ojo, Luz

• Asana done from the brain makes one heavy and done from the heart makes one light.
