“Without firm foundations a house cannot stand. Without the practice of the principles of Yama and Niyama, which lay down firm foundations for building character, there cannot be an integrated personality. Practice of asanas without the backing of Yama and Niyama is mere acrobatics.”

Yamas & Niyamas

The Yama and Niyama are moral trainings; without these as the basis no practice of yoga will succeed. As these two become established, the Yogi will begin to realise the fruits of his practice; without these a practice will never bear fruit.”
