More quotes by Byron Katie
I havent had a single thought for 26 years. I have only understanding. Its somewhat complicated to understand that. Ive hardly ever spoken about it. Youre in a state of total peace of mind. A kind of nirvana.
Byron Katie
The more you reveal, the more you have to question and the freer you get. Until, finally, you're absolutely exposed. And that leaves you in a fearless position, because you can work in the world without the fear of being found out. That is freedom.
Byron Katie
Lack of understanding is always painful.
Byron Katie
Whenever you think that your needs are not being met, you’re telling the story of a future
Byron Katie
There is no peace in the world until you find peace within yourself in this moment.
Byron Katie
Your understanding of another person is limited by what you think you already know. So when you just listen, the person you meet won't match your preconception. The exciting thing is that you usually meet someone much wiser and kinder than you expected. You might also lose track of your ideas about who you are.
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
So what is it with your mother that you haven't worked out yet?
Byron Katie
That's where the fear comes from-from your uninvestigated thoughts.
Byron Katie
Life is the constant opportunity to wake up.
Byron Katie
When I turn the thought around - the thought that war, let's say war in Iraq, should stop - the turnaround is the war in myself should stop.
Byron Katie
Life just happens. It’s what you’re believing about life that makes you suffer.
Byron Katie
Stress is an alarm clock that lets you know you're attached to something not true for you.
Byron Katie
I don't let go of concepts -I meet them with understanding. Then they let go of me.
Byron Katie
All sadness is a tantrum.
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
I have discovered that in every language and every country I have visited, there are no new stories. They're all recycled. The same stressful thoughts arise in each mind one way or another, sooner or later.
Byron Katie
Everyone is a mirror image of yourself-your own thinking coming back to you.
Byron Katie
A mind that doesn't question its judgements, makes the world very small and dangerous.
Byron Katie
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?
