βA vase, like a building, like a body, has two spaces β the one that it contains and the one that surrounds it. When we begin asana, we worry about the shape of the pose, that is how we look β¦ the space we exclude. By now we should be about the space we *include*, the space within, for it is largely that which gives true life and beauty to the asanaβ¦ yoga svarupaβ¦ That is achieved through the inner distribution of space. Essentially that is how yogasana becomes effortless, with the natural beauty of molten gold being poured from a vat. To reach the Infinite, we have to use finite means.β - BKS Iyengar Pg 203-204 #lightonlife πππ What an honor to be be illustrated by you @svenjakarstens (!!) in this beautiful asana calendar youβve created with such love and care.
