“ Yoga is the art and science of disciplining the body-mind.
Yoga is an art, because we need to approach the practice of Yoga as a good painter will approach a painting, with inspiration, clarity, deeps of feeling and determination.
Yoga is a science, because its overall effects are predictable, at least as we follow the rules.
Precisely how and when these effects will manifest in each case is not that predictable because every person is a little different.”
