”Yoga cannot guarantee us this or that particular benefit if we practice diligently. Yoga is not a recipe for less suffering, though it can offer us help in changing our attitude so that we have less avidya (false understanding) and therefore greater freedom from dukha (discomfort). We can understand the whole practice of yoga as a process of examining our habitual attitudes and behaviors and their consequences.”
~ T.K.V. Desikachar
