🦂 “The head which is the seed of knowledge and powers also the seat of pride, anger, hatred, jealousy, intolerance, and malice. These emotions are more dangerous than the poison, which the scorpion carries in its sting. The Yogi by stamping on his head with his feet, attempts to eradicate his self destroying emotions and passions. By kicking his head, he seeks to develop humility, calmness, and tolerance, and thus be free of ego. Subjugation of the ego leads to harmony and happiness.” - B.K.S Iyengar, Light on Yoga 🧘🏽‍♂️ #scorpionpose #sunlotusyoga #scorpion #bksiyengarquotes #hathayoga
