Spirituality is war. You are being trained to fight and win. Neither can you abandon this battle, nor can you make peace with the enemy. The war has to be fought.
But if you can fight the war and win it, then, I tell you, the body is a useful slave, a very good slave, if t starts obeying your commands. But you will have to domesticate it. Till the point you have not domesticated it, it’s a wild threat. You will have to turn the wild wolf into a pet dog; you will have to render it useful, and that is Yoga.
Yoga is about domesticating the body. That is the only way there can be harmony. Harmony cannot come by shaking hands with the enemy.
