The world is nothing but my perception of it. I see only through myself. I hear only through the filter of my story.

More quotes by Byron Katie
When you realize that every stressful moment you experience is a gift that points you to your own freedom, life becomes very kind.
Byron Katie
The world is what you believe it to be, and it changes as you change.
Byron Katie
Happiness is a clear mind. A clear and sane mind knows how to live, how to work, what emails to send, what phone calls to make, and what to do do to create what it wants without fear.
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
How do you react when you think you need people's love? Do you become a slave for their approval?
Byron Katie
I believe in the power of every human being to end suffering.
Byron Katie
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
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
The world is perfect. As you question your mind, this becomes more and more obvious. Mind changes, and as a result, the world changes. A clear mind heals everything that needs to be healed. It can never be fooled into believing that there is one speck out of order.
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
When you don't believe something, you can't make yourself believe it. There's nothing you can do to believe it again. You either believe it or you don't.
Byron Katie
You are the effect of your story, that's all.
Byron Katie
If we are in silence - in absolute silence with no thoughts - for 10 minutes, it's only a thought that tells us we were silent for 10 minutes. Our only proof is a thought.
Byron Katie
A thought is harmless unless we believe it.
Byron Katie
I am never unhappy, you can achieve that as well.
Byron Katie
If you want a little fear and terror because your life is dull, get a future. Terrifying!
Byron Katie
A mind that doesn't question its judgements, makes the world very small and dangerous.
Byron Katie
What would it be like to let go of wanting things to be other than they are?
Byron Katie
Who would you be without your story?
Byron Katie
You're never given more pain than you can handle. You never, ever get more than you can take.
Byron Katie
