I am very happy
Because I have conquered myself
And not the world.
I am very happy
Because I have loved the world
And not myself.

I shall now call myself;
I shall now call.
In the forest of my heart, seeing myself,
I shall love myself and love myself.
I shall be my own quest,
My absolute wealth.
The journey of light supreme will commence
In the heart of freedom.

Yoga is self-conquest. Self-conquest is God-realisation. He who practises yoga does two things with one stroke: he simplifies his whole life, and he gets free access to the Divine.

Smile, smile, smile at your mind as often as possible. Your smiling will considerably reduce your mind's tearing tension.

No matter how fleeting
Your smile is,
Your smile is the very beginning
Of your wisdom-light.

Look at your heart-flower and smile.
You will be able to solve your most pressing problems.
