Additional quotes by B. K. S. Iyengar
Yoga, as it was understood by its sages, is designed to satisfy all the human needs in a comprehensive, seamless whole.

We become the harmonious microcosm in the universal microcosm. Oneness, what I call integration, is the foundation for wholeness, inner peace, and ultimate freedom.
