"The highest spiritual practice is self-observation without judgment. -Swami Kripalu

"The word Kripalu means "being compassionate" in Sanskrit, the native language of the yoga tradition, and Swami Kripalu's emphasis on self-acceptance and compassion for others is what lies at the core of our spiritual heritage. More than an or guru, Swami Kripalu saw himself as a student dedicated to self-inquiry and learning through direct experience. That same focus on inquiry sand openness remains the foundation of the Kripalu approach to yoga, health, growth and transformation." "Kripalu" winter 2012
