A thought is harmless unless we believe it.
Byron Katie
Image
Everyone has equal wisdom. It is absolutely equally distributed. No one is wiser than anyone else.

If you are mentally somewhere else, you miss real life
Byron Katie
Image
People don't need sudden revelations. They get what they need when they need it, thought by thought by thought. It's a constant thing when the mind starts to wake up to itself.
Byron Katie
Image
I live in a state of grace, where I don't have to know.
Byron Katie
Image
If you knew how important you are, you would fragment into a billion pieces and just be light.
Byron Katie
Image
Place only your kindest thoughts on everything you experience today. Meet yourself.
Byron Katie
Image
Spare yourself from seeking love, approval, or appreciation-from anyone. And watch what happens in reality, just for fun.
Byron Katie
Image
To understand our own thinking is to understand all thinking.
Byron Katie
Image
The world will be at war as long as the mind is at war with itself. If we can't find peace within ourselves, where is the hope for peace in the world?
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.
