When you’re focused outside and believe that your problem is caused by someone else, rather than by your attachment to the story you’re believing in the moment, then you are your own victim, and the situation appears to be hopeless.
Byron Katie
Image
I used to sleep on the floor next to the bed, because I believed that I didn't even deserve a bed to sleep in. And then, one morning, a cockroach crawled onto my leg. I looked at it, and suddenly I awoke from a kind of hypnotic trance in which I had been all my life.

Trauma is nothing more than being stuck in what you believe.
Byron Katie
Image
Without an uninvestigated story, there's only the perfection of life appearing as itself. You can always go inside and find the beauty that's revealed after the pain and fear are understood.
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

Questioning our stressful thoughts, we come to see they're not true.
Byron Katie
Image
When safety is our priority, we live our lives being very, very careful, and we wind up having no lives
Byron Katie
Image
If you want to enter a state of grace, question the assumption you’re defending right now.
Byron Katie
Image
Mind changes, and as a result, the world changes. A clear mind heals everything that needs to be healed.
Byron Katie
Image
I love what I think, and I'm never tempted to believe it. Thoughts are like the wind or the leaves on the trees or the raindrops falling. They're not personal, they don't belong to us, they just come and go. When they're met with understanding, they're friends.
Byron Katie
Image
Don't be careful. You could hurt yourself.
Byron Katie
Image
The way to truly help someone is for me to not get immersed in their suffering.
Byron Katie
Image
Once we begin to question our thoughts, our partners-alive, dead or divorced-are always our greatest teachers. There's no mistake about the person you're with he or she is the perfect teacher for you, whether or not the relationship works out, and once you enter inquiry, you come to see that clearly.
