“In Bhekasana the abdominal organs benefit from the exercise as they are pressed against the floor. The knees become firmer and the pose relieves pain in the knee joints due to rheumatism and gout. It also gives relief when there is any internal derangement of the knee joints. The pressure of the hands on the feet creates a proper arch and so cures flat feet. It helps sprained ankles and strengthens them. The pose also relieves pain in the heels. By continued practice of this asana, the heels become softer. Persons suffering from calcaneal spurs in the heels benefit from it as well as Virasana.”

"The decision to relax rather than to grip, even in the face of impatience or fear, is a conscious and brave choice."

You want to improve.
You want to go further.
Deeper. Stronger. Clearer.

But something keeps repeating.
The same difficulty.
The same resistance.
The same limitation.

Not because you cannot change.
But because you have not fully seen it.

“We can rise above our limitation,
only once we recognize them.” — B.K.S. Iyengar

Recognition is not intellectual.
It is honest.
Uncomfortable.
Precise.
Undeniable.

Until then—
you are not working on the limitation.
You are working around it.

💬 What is one limitation you’ve been avoiding seeing?

"In vernacular language, performing an asana is expressed as laying an asana and not as being done or performed. Every asana is a seat, and a seat is always well laid. Laying is done with some skill and tenderness like you lay the bed for a restful sleep. Asana too should be laid. It is a misleading expression in English that asanas are done. The process of laying an asana is very different from the process of doing an asana. The very mode, mindset, drive and approach towards laying an asana would be different from doing it. Analyse an action, any action. We require a cognitive act. That is called as karmendriya kriya. Karmendriya kriya is of a different fabric for doing an asana. A conative act is a major component of an asana. Sensory forces, judments and mind must be involved in the dexterous act of laying an asana."

“A person in ill health willingly turns to asana practice, lured by its therapeutic potential.

However, it is the responsibility of the practitioner to continue the practice after health is restored to endeavour to attain self-realisation through the study of asana and pranayama.

Health and wellbeing is a derivative of Yoga practice. It should not be the sole reason for establishing it.
As the practice of asana and pranayama deepens and the practitioners make the transition from the gross to the subtler aspects of the self, their consciousness enters a completely new level - one that is beyond the senses. They discover that each cell in the body is replete with divine, life-giving energy. This new-found knowledge, along with the
the meditative mind.
enlightened citta (consciousness) empowers them to attain dhyana or the meditative mind.”
