Who would you be if you didn't believe this lie?
Byron Katie
Image
The power of one! If I can't stop war in my life, how can I expect politicians to stop war in the world? I can't. And we all have equal wisdom, so if I can do it then I know that anyone can do it if their mind is open to answering just four simple questions and beginning there.

What is perfect health? The unraveling of all imagined states of mind
Byron Katie
Image
Nothing belongs to me. Everything comes and goes. Serenity is an open door.
Byron Katie
Image
Until the mind is open, the heart stays closed. The open mind is the key to the open heart.
Byron Katie
Image
The mind's job is to validate what it thinks.
Byron Katie
Image
For me, everything is God. Everything and everyone. So it was just, God needs me now, now, now.
Byron Katie
