Patanjali described the point of the yoga path as “stilling the waves of the mind”—not as a vaguely spiritual aerobics. The Buddha practiced various yogas for six years before finally surrendering to the hardest, simplest practice of them all: meditation practice. Today—with yoga more accessible and popular than at any time in history—most of us are too speedy for savasana and too few teachers focus on breath and alignment, let alone intention.
