I love the world, because I love the mind that created the world.
Byron Katie
Image
As long as we believe our thoughts, there will always be war.
Byron Katie
Image
I've heard people say that they cling to their painful thoughts because they're afraid that without them they wouldn't be activists for peace. If I feel peaceful, they say, why would I bother taking action at all?
Byron Katie
Image
You don't have to feel bad to act kindly. Love doesn't stand by, it moves with the speed of clarity.

Life is the constant opportunity to wake up.
Byron Katie

No one has ever been angry at another human being-we’re only angry at our story of them.

The Work: 1. Is it true? 2. Can you absolutely know that it’s true? 3. How do you react, what happens, when you believe that thought? 4. Who would you be without the thought?

Byron Katie

When you question what you believe, you leave the world, really, and what the world believes. It puts you in a very interesting position.
Byron Katie
Image
The miracle of love comes to you in the presence of the uninterpreted moment. If you are mentally somewhere else, you miss real life.
Byron Katie
Image
Fear is blind. There are some options in it, but they're very limited as compared to the options available to the fearless mind.
Byron Katie
Image
Who would you be without the thought that happiness depends on someone else?
Byron Katie
Image
For me, everything is God. Everything and everyone. So it was just, God needs me now, now, now.
Byron Katie
Image
I suffered from severe depression for over a decade. My condition deteriorated steadily. I was suicidal.
Byron Katie
Image
To think that I know what's best for anyone else is to be out of my business. Even in the name of love, it is pure arrogance, and the result is tension, anxiety, and fear. Do I know what's right for me? That is my only business. Let me work with that before I try to solve problems for you.
Byron Katie

Gratitude is what we are without a story.
Byron Katie
