With inquiry, every painful story unravels. Freedom is possible in every moment.
Byron Katie
Image
Life just happens. It’s what you’re believing about life that makes you suffer.
Byron Katie
Image
When a thought appears such as Do the dishes and you don't do them, notice how an internal war breaks out... The stress and weariness you feel are really mental combat fatigue.
Byron Katie
Image
You are the effect of your story, that's all.
Byron Katie
Image
The person who finds peace inside and lives it, is the one who teaches what true peace is.
Byron Katie
Image
What we believe, we see.
Byron Katie
Image
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
Image
There is no peace in the world until you find peace within yourself in this moment.
Byron Katie
Image
The world is what you believe it to be, and it changes as you change.
Byron Katie
Image
There's no way that a clear mind can live an unhappy life.
Byron Katie
Image
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 have had the privilege of losing everything.
Byron Katie
Image
Just because we love someone, we begin to notice that love is an experience and we have to do something with it. We don't have to marry people or date them because we care about them very deeply. It's an experience.
Byron Katie
Image
Lack of understanding is always painful.
Byron Katie
Image
No one has ever been able to control his thinking, although people may tell the story of how they have. I don't let go of my thoughts-I meet them with understanding. Then they let go of me.
Byron Katie
Image
Every mind deserves to be free. When the mind is free, that's the end of suffering.
Byron Katie
Image
You don’t experience anxiety unless you’re attached to a thought that isn’t true for you. It’s that simple.
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
Image
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
Image
No one can hurt me - that's my job.
