Inspiring Quotes by Iyengar That Will Transform Your Life

5 inspiring B.K.S. Iyengar’s quotes about life

Bellur Krishnamachar Sundararaja Iyengar (14 December 1918–20 August 2014), better known as B.K.S. Iyengar was an Indian Yoga teacher, and he was one of the most crucial modern yoga teachers. He published many books about yoga practice and philosophy, and especially his book ‘Light on Yoga’ has become the cornerstone of Yoga teacher training.

The book was published in 1966, translated 18 languages to explain more than 200 asanas. Iyengar demonstrated many yoga postures by his pictures to make them explicit.

Consider that there was no internet at that time, by showing each yoga posture separately with explanations distinguished this book from others.

Iyengar taught Hatha Yoga and focussed on breath and meditation techniques to relax and develop mind, body, and spirit.

To facilitating my physical practice with his step-by-step explanations, he has been a light to my life with words. Some of his quotes ease my Yoga practice but the others are like a guide.

Here are 5 inspiring Iyengar’s quotes about life:

“The longest journey of any person is the journey inward.”

I always loved traveling and exploring new places in the world. The final point is not a target for me because I know how to enjoy the journey itself.

But Iyengar reminds me that the most enjoyable and longest journey is the journey I make within myself. As I practice on it, I encounter different selves.

“There is no difference in souls, only the ideas about ourselves that we wear.”

This sentence advises me that I should be compassionate and understanding of myself and others.

Souls are the same, and human beings generate thoughts based on past experiences, so we create our expectations, values, and rules. Before being judgemental, I need to rethink where their ideas might becoming.

“The body is your temple. Keep it pure and clean for the soul to reside in.”

Taking care of my body seems to show my gratitude for it. After starting yoga, I try to pay more attention to my body. For instance, I am eating a balanced, colorful diet, staying active at least one hour during the day, avoiding tobacco and alcohol, and getting the right amount of sleep.

Having a clean body increase confidence, which feels good. So I am the one who has witnessed this body all day, and I deserve to see myself as a well-groomed lady.

The critical thing is I am doing it for myself, not others.

“All games are meaningless if you do not know the rules.”

Doing everything according to the book, decrease the mistake chance. Without knowing the rules, the action is a waste of time.

I generally remember this quote for a professional working environment.

If you start a new sector, check market dynamics. Who are the market players/makers?

The answer will clarify the market rules so you can take a step prudently.

“Change is not something that we should fear. Rather, it is something that we should welcome. For without change, nothing in this world would ever grow or blossom, and no one in this world would ever move forward to become the person they’re meant to be.”

I think all the changes in which you are developing is impressive. Every day I try to learn new things. While practicing to give up something, I try to make room for new ones.

Start with small ones. Change the book genres that you usually read, change your work route and explore new streets, change the restaurants that you go regularly and try different cuisines, and modify your sentences and observe the impact on your relationships.

Unfortunately, If there is no change, there will be no progress. Humans fall in repetition in their actions, and they condemned to disappear.

Namaste.
