Thoughts of God

Constantly, sincerely thinking about God are superior to thoughts on perfecting our asana practice.
We need to try and go above the body consciousness. This is only possible by His grace and we need to make efforts for that. Merely spending hours on hata yoga is not adequate. We have to pray to Him to grant us that divine perception which takes is above the body. This sadhana is superior to body sadhana.

Patanajli did not stop at asana if he felt that asana alone would suffice- which is obviously not possible. Hence Dharana & Dhyana were given.
