Beauty Quote by B.K.S. Iyengar

“As a breeze ruffles the surface of a lake and distorts the images reflected therein, so also the chitta vrtti (fluctuations of mind) disturb the peace of the mind. The still waters of a lake reflect the beauty around it. When the mind is still, the beauty of the Self is seen reflected in it.” quote by B.K.S. Iyengar — Download Open image
