Light on Yoga

This morning I am reviewing my readings for assessment.  (which is in 2 weeks)  Starting with Light on Yoga written by BKS Iyengar in 1966.  Some say this is the 'bible',  I use this word loosely,  for all yoga practioners to read.   In the introduction  it begins with, "What is Yoga?"  I love this next part,"....the yoking of all the powers of the body, mind, the emotions, the will, which that Yoga presupposes;  it means a poise of the soul which enables one to look at life in all its aspects  evenly."

As you go through your day,  think on this when doing your practice,  while driving, while talking,  when you are being still.  Anytime you begin to let your emotions dominate what is reality of your life,   know you are in control and by the practice of this yoga,  you can be closer to your own inner light.
