"As animals, we walk the earth. As bearers……" — B.K.S. Iyengar
"As animals, we walk the earth. As bearers of divine essence, we are among the stars. As human beings, we are caught in the middle, seeking to reconcile the paradox of how to make our way upon earth while striving for something more permanent and more profound."
