More quotes by Byron Katie
Seeking love keeps you from the awareness that you already have it—that you are it.
Byron Katie
What's happening in the world is a natural course of events.
Byron Katie
If your happiness depends on your children being happy, that makes them your hostages. So stay out of their business, stop using them for your happiness, and be your own happiness. And that way you are the teacher for your children: someone who knows how to live a happy life.
Byron Katie
You move totally away from reality when you believe that there is a legitimate reason to suffer.
Byron Katie
Happiness is a clear mind. A clear and sane mind knows how to live, how to work, what emails to send, what phone calls to make, and what to do do to create what it wants without fear.
Byron Katie
We suffer only until we realize that we can't know anything.
Byron Katie
Any thought of discomfort or stress is an alarm that lets you know you're believing an untrue thought
Byron Katie
Our parents, our children, our spouses, and our friends will continue to press every button we have, until we realize what it is that we don't want to know about ourselves, yet. They will point us to our freedom every time.
Byron Katie
Life is simple. Everything happens for you, not to you. Everything happens at exactly the right moment, neither too soon nor too late. You don't have to like it... it's just easier if you do.
Byron Katie
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
We cannot see what we don't believe.
Byron Katie
The world will be at war as long as the mind is at war with itself.
Byron Katie
That's what I love about integrity. Each time we go inside, that's where it is.
Byron Katie
I can find only three kinds of business in the Universe: mine, yours, and God's.
Byron Katie
I realized that it's insane to oppose it. When I argue with reality, I lose-but only 100% of the time. How do I know that the wind should blow? It's blowing!
Byron Katie
All I have is all I need and all I need is all I have in this moment.
Byron Katie
The mind usually says, “I know, I know, I know.” But the “don’t-know mind” is where wisdom lives.
Byron Katie
Thinking that what you want equals what's best for you is a dead end.
Byron Katie
I don't let go of concepts -I meet them with understanding. Then they let go of me.
Byron Katie
If you put your hand into a fire, does anyone have to tell you to move it? Do you have to decide? No: When your hand starts to burn, it moves. You don’t have to direct it the hand moves itself. In the same way, once you understand, through inquiry, that an untrue thought causes suffering, you move away from it.
