More quotes by Byron Katie
If people are living their lives for security and comfort and pleasure, then mind's every waking moment will be plotting those things. That's how it stays identified - as a body, as a you.
Byron Katie
I've heard people say that they cling to their painful thoughts because they're afraid that without them they wouldn't be activists for peace. If I feel peaceful, they say, why would I bother taking action at all?
Byron Katie
If something happens to your son, your thoughts about not having him in your life is what your terror is. It's not about his life.
Byron Katie
Who cares if you're enlightened forever? Can you just get it in this moment, now?
Byron Katie
When you realize that every stressful moment you experience is a gift that points you to your own freedom, life becomes very kind.
Byron Katie
I think our children are afraid to die because we're afraid to die.
Byron Katie
There is no peace in the world until you find peace within yourself in this moment.
Byron Katie
Thinking that people are supposed to do or be anything other than what they are is like saying that the tree over there should be the sky. I investigated that and found freedom.
Byron Katie
Every mind deserves to be free. When the mind is free, that's the end of suffering.
Byron Katie
The voice within is what I'm married to. All marriage is a metaphor for that marriage. My lover is the place inside me where an honest yes and no come from. That's my true partner. It's always there. And to tell you yes when my integrity says no is to divorce that partner.
Byron Katie
Realizing that people should lie when they do makes me a little more open-minded, a little more tolerant, when my child or my partner lies.
Byron Katie
The world is perfect. As you question your mind, this becomes more and more obvious. Mind changes, and as a result, the world changes. A clear mind heals everything that needs to be healed. It can never be fooled into believing that there is one speck out of order.
Byron Katie
'I don't know' is my favorite position.
Byron Katie
Lack of understanding is always painful.
Byron Katie
Here's what I would want for humanity, because this is what I have come to see is true: it's so simple when we listen to people.
Byron Katie
The mind usually says, “I know, I know, I know.” But the “don’t-know mind” is where wisdom lives.
Byron Katie
Trauma is nothing more than being stuck in what you believe.
Byron Katie
Your parents are your projection-nothing more.
Byron Katie
Until we know that death is equal to life, we live in fear.
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.
Byron Katie
