Yoga is not done by man but by the Divine in him. What is needed is to collaborate with the Divine working within us. All restlessness, impatience, excitement, haste and agitation, the storms of passion and the torment of lust; the clouds of doubt and despair impede the working of the Grace. But once our being and nature have become tranquil and quiet then the Divine Presence emerges as naturally as the flower from a bud or the sun at daybreak and the yoga is done for us. To stay quiet and remain open to the Grace with a complete trust is the art of yoga, of an increasing union with the Divine.
