The miracle of love comes to you in the presence of the uninterpreted moment. If you are mentally somewhere else, you miss real life.

Image
The moment it begins to question itself, the mind becomes so clear that it starts working with itself rather than with the body's identification.
Byron Katie
Image
Everything that happens is God's will. When you realize that, you're home free.
Byron Katie
Image
Trauma is nothing more than being stuck in what you believe.
Byron Katie
Image
Who cares if you're enlightened forever? Can you just get it in this moment, now?
Byron Katie
Image
If I'm okay with dying, my son is at least as enlightened as that. If I'm okay with my cancer, my son is at least as enlightened as I am.
Byron Katie
Image
With inquiry, every painful story unravels. Freedom is possible in every moment.
Byron Katie
Image
I love what I think, and I'm never tempted to believe it. Thoughts are like the wind or the leaves on the trees or the raindrops falling. They're not personal, they don't belong to us, they just come and go. When they're met with understanding, they're friends.
Byron Katie
Image
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

So what is it with your mother that you haven't worked out yet?
Byron Katie
Image
Never be fooled into believing that there is one speck out of order.
Byron Katie
Image
Stories are the untested, uninvestigated theories that tell us what all these things mean. We don’t even realize that they’re just theories.
Byron Katie
Image
We don't attach to people or to things we attach to uninvestigated concepts that we believe to be true in the moment.
Byron Katie
Image
Any story that you tell about yourself causes suffering. There is no authentic story.
Byron Katie
Image
I love being free enough that I can be so intimate with people, and that people are free enough that we can all be intimate with each other!
Byron Katie
Image
Look at your life without the thought Something terrible is going to happen.
Byron Katie
Image
Once we begin to question our thoughts, our partners-alive, dead or divorced-are always our greatest teachers. There's no mistake about the person you're with he or she is the perfect teacher for you, whether or not the relationship works out, and once you enter inquiry, you come to see that clearly.
Byron Katie
Image
Your most intimate relationship is the one you have with your thoughts.
Byron Katie
Image
I am a lover of what is, not because I'm a spiritual person, but because it hurts when I argue with reality. We can know that reality is good just as it is, because when we argue with it, we experience tension and frustration. We don't feel natural or balanced. When we stop opposing reality, action becomes simple, fluid, kind, and fearless.

'I don't know' is my favorite position.

Whenever you think that your needs are not being met, you’re telling the story of a future
