More quotes by Byron Katie
Forgiveness is discovering that what you thought happened, didn’t.
Byron Katie
Im very clear that everyone in the world loves me. I just dont expect them to realize it yet.
Byron Katie
Everyone in your life is a figment of your imagination--ev en you.
Byron Katie
Every mind deserves to be free. When the mind is free, that's the end of suffering.
Byron Katie
I suffered from severe depression for over a decade. My condition deteriorated steadily. I was suicidal.
Byron Katie
A thought is harmless unless we believe it. It’s not our thoughts, but our attachment to our thoughts, that causes suffering. Attaching to a thought means believing that it’s true, without inquiring. A belief is a thought that we’ve been attaching to, often for years.
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
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
Your nature is truth, and when you oppose it, you don't feel like yourself. Stress never feels as natural as peace does.
Byron Katie
No one told me that you could be alive and be happy. No one told me, and if someone had I wouldn't have believed them. I thought that you had to die - physically die - to escape.
Byron Katie
Once the mind is met with understanding, it can always find its way home.
Byron Katie
Rather than understand the original cause-a thought-we try to change the stressful feelings by looking outside ourselves.
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
I am a lover of what is, not because I'm a spiritual person, but because it hurts when I argue with reality.
Byron Katie
When we work with our thinking, then to have great wealth is the same as to have nothing. That's the only freedom.
Byron Katie
My happiness isn't dependent on anyone else's.
Byron Katie
Fear is always the result of an unquestioned past imagined as a future.
Byron Katie
If you argue against reality you will suffer.
Byron Katie
And as long as we believe what we believe - until that is questioned - there's no progress as a human race. Again, we still have war. So, effective rehabilitation is to question what we believe. When that happens, everyone gets out of prison.
Byron Katie
Who would you be without your story?
