More quotes by 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
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 safety is our priority, we live our lives being very, very careful, and we wind up having no lives
Byron Katie
Fear is always the result of an unquestioned past imagined as a future.
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
If you want reality to be different than it is, you might as well try to teach a cat to bark.
Byron Katie
As long as we believe our thoughts, there will always be war.
Byron Katie
You don't have to feel bad to act kindly. Love doesn't stand by, it moves with the speed of clarity.
Byron Katie
Stress never feels as natural as peace does
Byron Katie
No one has ever been angry at another human being-we’re only angry at our story of them.
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
Any stressful thought that you have about the planet, for example, shows you where you are stuck, where your energy is being exhausted in not fully meeting life as it is, without conditions.
Byron Katie
There is no mistake in nature.
Byron Katie
I was clinically depressed. I was paranoid. I was agoraphobic. I would have days at a time of not being able to even bathe or brush my teeth.
Byron Katie
You can't drop concepts. You can only shine a little flashlight on them as you do inquiry, an you see that what you thought was true wasn't. And when the truth is seen, there's nothing you can do to make the lie true for you again.
Byron Katie
Fear is blind. There are some options in it, but they're very limited as compared to the options available to the fearless mind.
Byron Katie
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
Peace doesn't require two people it requires only one. It has to be you. The problem begins and ends there.
Byron Katie
Until we question our stressful thoughts, we remain victims of the images in our head.
Byron Katie
The person who finds peace inside and lives it, is the one who teaches what true peace is.
Byron Katie
