Invocation before practice

Invocation to Sage Patanjali

yogena cittasya padena vacam
malam sarirasya ca vaidyakaena
yopa karot tam pravaram muninum
patanjalim pranjalir anato smi
abahu - purusakaram
sankha - cakrasi - dharinam
sahasra - sirasam svetam
pranamami patanjalim

I am a deep bow with hands folded to Patanjali, the most excellent of Sages, who removed impurity of consciousness through yoga, impurity of speech through word, and impurity of body through medicine.

Where there is yoga, there is prosperity, success, freedom and contentment.

To the magnificent, endless One, Salutations, Salutations, Salutations.

Yoga Sutras of Patanjali

Yoga Sutra 1:14

sa tu dirghakala nairantarya satkara asevitah drdhabhumih

Practice for a long time with devotion and enthusiasm

To achieve a strong foundation in our practice, we must practice over a long period of time, without interruption, believing in it and looking forward to it, with an attitude of service

Abhyasa

"To get established in that abhyasa, in the practice, you have to be like a child. We have to have innocence – not ignorance. Understand the difference. We have to have innocence in the beginning to know how we can proceed for the practice." Geeta. S.Iyengar 2009
