Yoga is the journey of the self, through the self, to the self. — The Bhagavad Gita
Working without attachments means we work without demanding or expecting a specific result, that we let go of the idea that we control the fruits (the outcome) of our work.
Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom. – Viktor E. Frankl

Through practice, I’ve come to see that the deepest source of my misery is not wanting things to be the way they are. Not wanting myself to be the way I am. Not wanting the world to be the way it is.

You are now at a crossroads. This is your opportunity to make the most important decision you will ever make. Forget your past. Who are you now?

“Look at a stone cutter hammering away at his rock, perhaps a hundred times without as much as a crack showing in it. Yet at the hundred-and-first blow it will split in two, and I know it was not the last blow that did it, but all that had gone before.” – Jacob A. Riis
