My Legacy

Patanjali’s thoughts on the creative potential of human

consciousness.

‘When you are inspired by some great purpose, some

extraordinary project, all your thoughts break their

boundaries. Your mind transcends limitations, your

consciousness expands in every direction, and you find

yourself in a new, great and wonderful world. Dormant

forces, faculties and talents come alive, and you discover

yourself to be a greater person by far than you dreamed

yourself to be.”
