‘Anyone who actively practises yoga be he young, old or even very old, sickly or weak can become a siddha [obtain yoga benefits and powers]. Anyone who practises can acquire siddhis, but not he who is lazy. Yoga siddhis are not obtained by merely reading textbooks.

‘Nor are they reached by wearing yoga garments, or by conversations about yoga, but only through tireless practise. This is the secret of success. There is no doubt about it.’
