More quotes by Byron Katie
How do I know it was meant to happen this way? Because it did.
Byron Katie
I know that even at moments of apparent danger, nothing is out of order or lacking, other than our own unquestioned thoughts about those moments.
Byron Katie
The world is nothing but my perception of it. I see only through myself. I hear only through the filter of my story.
Byron Katie
The Work always leaves you with less of a story. Who would you be without your story? You never know until you inquire. There is no story that is you or that leads to you. Every story leads away from you. Turn it around undo it. You are what exists before all stories. You are what remains when the story is understood.
Byron Katie
When you believe that your problem is caused by someone or something else, you become your own victim.
Byron Katie
I'm the one who changes the world if I can follow what I think should and shouldn't be lived in this world.
Byron Katie
To me, health is a balanced mind. A balanced mind knows how to get enough rest, how to eat properly, how to exercise. I have come out as just a balanced human being, and I don't know anything finer than that.
Byron Katie
My life is a contribution.
Byron Katie
It's very benign, it seems, to think, There's a tree. In fact, it's a very beautiful thought. If someone chops down all the trees, then we think, Oh, my goodness, something is out of order in my world. We begin to think, Who am I in a world without trees?
Byron Katie
Self-realization is not complete until it lives in action.
Byron Katie
Some of us are returning to sanity, because we're tired of the pain. We're in a hurry. No time to mess around.
Byron Katie
The world is as you perceive it to be. For me, clarity is a word for beauty. It’s what I am. And when I’m clear, I see only beauty. Nothing else is possible.
Byron Katie
It's not possible to have a problem without believing a prior thought. To notice this simple truth is the beginning of peace.
Byron Katie
You might believe that it's only for their own good, but how does it feel when you try to manipulate the people you love? Are you teaching them that your love is conditional? Maybe through inquiry we can find another way.
Byron Katie
Life is simple. Everything happens for you, not to you.
Byron Katie
Here’s how a child listens: you tell him something, and he puts his own interpretation on what you said. That’s what he hears. No one has ever heard you.
Byron Katie
A thought is harmless unless we believe it.
Byron Katie
One morning in February 1986, out of nowhere, I experienced a realization. In an instant, I discovered that when I believed my stressful thoughts, I suffered, but when I questioned them, I didn't suffer.
Byron Katie
The teacher you need is the person you're living with.
Byron Katie
To exclude anything that appears in your universe is not love. Love joins with everything. It doesn't exclude the monster. It doesn't avoid the nightmare - it looks forward to it.
Byron Katie
