More quotes by Byron Katie
Until we question our stressful thoughts, we remain victims of the images in our head.
Byron Katie
Thinking that people are supposed to do or be anything other than what they are is like saying that the tree over there should be the sky. I investigated that and found freedom.
Byron Katie
The miracle of love comes to you in the presence of the uninterpreted moment. If you are mentally somewhere else, you miss real life.
Byron Katie
A thought is harmless unless we believe it. It’s not our thoughts, but our attachment to our thoughts, that causes suffering. Attaching to a thought means believing that it’s true, without inquiring. A belief is a thought that we’ve been attaching to, often for years.
Byron Katie
Place only your kindest thoughts on everything you experience today. Meet yourself.
Byron Katie
Just because we love someone, we begin to notice that love is an experience and we have to do something with it. We don't have to marry people or date them because we care about them very deeply. It's an experience.
Byron Katie
I'm not in Iraq. I'm here in California. Have I had an argument with my husband today? Have I been at war with someone in my life today - or with myself? Let me work on that. That way war is ending somewhere in the world.
Byron Katie
You would be amazed at who people are once you know yourself.
Byron Katie
Gratitude is what we are without a story.
Byron Katie
How do I know it was meant to happen this way? Because it did.
Byron Katie
Any story that you tell about yourself causes suffering. There is no authentic story.
Byron Katie
I don't let go of concepts -I meet them with understanding. Then they let go of me.
Byron Katie
I am a lover of what is, not because I'm a spiritual person, but because it hurts when I argue with reality.
Byron Katie
Whatever it takes for you to find your freedom, that's what you've lived.
Byron Katie
All I have is all I need and all I need is all I have in this moment.
Byron Katie
Discomfort is the call to set yourself free.
Byron Katie
Everyone wants peace, inside and outside, and we would all have it if we knew how. Now we know how. It begins with you.
Byron Katie
When a thought appears such as Do the dishes and you don't do them, notice how an internal war breaks out... The stress and weariness you feel are really mental combat fatigue.
Byron Katie
The teacher you need is the person you're living with.
Byron Katie
The mind's job is to validate what it thinks.
