Byron Katie Quotes
Best 18 Other Quotes by Byron Katie
“All I have is all I need and all I need is all I have in this moment.”
“An unquestioned mind is the world of suffering.”
“Don't be careful. You could hurt yourself.”
“Don't believe every thing you think.”
“How do you react when you think you need people's love? Do you become a slave for their approval? Do you live an inauthentic life because you can't bear the thought that they might disapprove of you? Do you try to figure out how they would like you to be, and then try to become that, like a chameleon? In fact, you never really get their love. You turn into someone you aren't, and then when they say "I love you," you can't believe it, because they're loving a facade. They're loving someone who doesn't even exist, the person you're pretending to be. It's difficult to seek other people's love. It's deadly. In seeking it, you lose what is genuine. This is the prison we create for ourselves as we seek what we already have.”
“It's not your job to like me - it's mine.”
“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.”
“Nothing comes ahead of its time, and nothing ever happened that didn't need to happen.”
“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.”
“Placing the blame or judgment on someone else leaves you powerless to change your experience; taking responsibility for your beliefs and judgments gives you the power to change them.”
“Seeking love keeps you from the awareness that you already have it—that you are it.”
“Since the beginning of time, people have been trying to change the world so that they can be happy. This hasn’t ever worked, because it approaches the problem backward. What The Work gives us is a way to change the projector—mind—rather than the projected. It’s like when there’s a piece of lint on a projector’s lens. We think there’s a flaw on the screen, and we try to change this person and that person, whomever the flaw appears on next. But it’s futile to try to change the projected images. Once we realize where the lint is, we can clear the lens itself. This is the end of suffering, and the beginning of a little joy in paradise.”
“The miracle of love comes to you in the presence of the uninterpreted moment. If you are mentally somewhere else, you miss real life.”
“The only way I can be angry at you is when I have thought, said, or done something that is unkind in my own opinion.”
“There is nothing that isn't true if you believe it; and nothing is true, believe it or not.”
“When they attack you and you notice that you love them with all your heart, your work is done.”
“When we stop opposing reality, action becomes simple, fluid, kind, and fearless.”
“When you argue with reality, you lose, but only 100% of the time.”
