Everyone has equal wisdom. It is absolutely equally distributed. No one is wiser than anyone else.
Byron Katie
Image
We never make a decision. When the time is right, the decision makes itself.
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
Image
I'm not in Iraq. I'm here in California. Have I had an argument with my husband today? Have I been at war with someone in my life today - or with myself? Let me work on that. That way war is ending somewhere in the world.

Who would you be without the thought I need more money to be safe? You might be a lot easier to be with. You might even begin to notice the laws of generosity, the laws of letting money go out fearlessly and come back fearlessly. You don't ever need more money than you have.
Byron Katie
Image
If you argue against reality you will suffer.
Byron Katie
Image
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
Image
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
Image
The way to truly help someone is for me to not get immersed in their suffering.
Byron Katie
Image
An unquestioned mind is the world of suffering.
Byron Katie
Image
'I don't know' is my favorite position.
Byron Katie
Image
The person who finds peace inside and lives it, is the one who teaches what true peace is.
Byron Katie
Image
The nightmare always becomes laughter, once it's understood.
Byron Katie
Image
When we question our thoughts, we see that the craziness was never in the world, but in us.
