Every moment a gift: are you unwrapping yours now, and now, and now?

Do you want to be right more than you want to know the truth? It's the truth that set me free. Acceptance, peace, and less attachment to a world of suffering are all effects of doing The Work. They're not the goals. Do The Work for the love of freedom, for the love of truth.
Byron Katie
Image
A teacher of fear can't bring peace on earth. We have been trying to do it that way for thousands of years. The person who turns inner violence around, the person who finds peace inside and lives it, is the one who teaches what true peace is. We are waiting for just one teacher. You're the one.
Byron Katie
Image
The ability to understand the cause of your own suffering gives you the ability to understand ours.
Byron Katie
Image
Until you look forward to all criticism, your Work's not done.
Byron Katie

The nightmare always becomes laughter, once it's understood.
Byron Katie

I have had the privilege of losing everything.
Byron Katie

If your happiness depends on your children being happy, that makes them your hostages. So stay out of their business, stop using them for your happiness, and be your own happiness. And that way you are the teacher for your children: someone who knows how to live a happy life.
Byron Katie
Image
We don't attach to people or to things we attach to uninvestigated concepts that we believe to be true in the moment.
Byron Katie
