More quotes by Byron Katie
Every mind deserves to be free. When the mind is free, that's the end of suffering.
Byron Katie
Once the mind is met with understanding, it can always find its way home.
Byron Katie
Any stressful thought that you have about the planet, for example, shows you where you are stuck, where your energy is being exhausted in not fully meeting life as it is, without conditions.
Byron Katie
The Work always leaves you with less of a story. Who would you be without your story? You never know until you inquire. There is no story that is you or that leads to you. Every story leads away from you. Turn it around undo it. You are what exists before all stories. You are what remains when the story is understood.
Byron Katie
Everyone in your life is a figment of your imagination--ev en you.
Byron Katie
I love being free enough that I can be so intimate with people, and that people are free enough that we can all be intimate with each other!
Byron Katie
I am a lover of what is, not because I'm a spiritual person, but because it hurts when I argue with reality. We can know that reality is good just as it is, because when we argue with it, we experience tension and frustration. We don't feel natural or balanced. When we stop opposing reality, action becomes simple, fluid, kind, and fearless.
Byron Katie
The way to truly help someone is for me to not get immersed in their suffering.
Byron Katie
When you act like a teacher, it's usually because you're afraid to be the student.
Byron Katie
I was clinically depressed. I was paranoid. I was agoraphobic. I would have days at a time of not being able to even bathe or brush my teeth.
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 sadness is a tantrum.
Byron Katie
all the advice you ever gave your partner is for you to hear
Byron Katie
Judge your neighbor, write it down. Ask four questions, turn it around.
Byron Katie
Your most intimate relationship is the one you have with your thoughts.
Byron Katie
I invite everyone to question their thoughts about their children and allow their children to be free. That's when we stop teaching our children fear.
Byron Katie
Life is simple. Everything happens for you, not to you.
Byron Katie
I'm most inspired whenever I hear of even the smallest act of human kindness.
Byron Katie
Place only your kindest thoughts on everything you experience today. Meet yourself.
Byron Katie
Nothing terrible has ever happened except in our thinking. Reality is always good, even in situations that seem like nightmares. The story we tell is the only nightmare that we have lived.
Byron Katie
