Bikram on Yoga

”An induvidual operates on three levels on existence - physical, mental and spiritual. In India we concentrate on the physical first. You cannot become spiritually enlightened if you do not have the physical discipline.”

”Exercising alone is not enough. Some types of exercise destroy the body so you can not use your brain and mind… if you run or jog you just dig your grave faster. You are gaining maybe 5 percent in your legs -thats good- but internally you are hurting yourself. these exercises destroy the bones, joints, ligaments, everything. You become stiffer and stiffer. Most of the internal organs will not work well. That is why everyone is the victim of chronic diseases.”
”The United States has 5% of the world’s population. That 5% has more back problems that the rest of the world combined. Every day doctors write half a million prescriptions for mental disease, but few of these people are mentally sick. The physical body is destroyed so they cannot use their brain and mind. The spine is ruined and the nervous system doesn`t work anymore”
”My yoga system covers all of the body, from bone to skin and hair to toes. Each of the internal organs, glands, nerves, ligaments, veins and tissues are used.”
”Western people do not have the time to learn and perfect hundreds of poses, so I designed a routine of 26 postures that improve the hole body. The key to life is balance, if you are balanced, stress can´t touch you. My routine develops balance, strength and flexibility, and works equally well for beginning and advanced students.”
”These 26 poses go through the whole body, relieving stress, balancing and strengthening the glands, organs, circulation, digestion, nervous system, rejuvenates tissue, reverses the aging process, reshapes muscles, tendons and builds willpower, self-control and patience.”
