(Formerly "A Brief Anthology")"The Work always brings us back to who we really are. Each belief investigated to the point of understanding allows the next belief to surface. You undo that one. Then you undo the next, and the next. And then you find that you are actually looking forward to the next belief. At some point you may notice that you are meeting every thought, feeling, person, and situation as a friend. Until eventually you are looking for a problem. Until, finally, you notice that you haven't had one in years." - Byron Katie
Byron Katie Boeken
Byron Katie is een Amerikaanse spreker en auteur die een methode van zelfonderzoek genaamd "The Work" heeft opgericht. Haar methode komt voort uit een diepgaande persoonlijke realisatie waarbij ze ontdekte dat lijden voortkomt uit het geloven in iemands eigen gedachten. Katie biedt een manier om deze gedachten te bevragen, wat leidt tot innerlijke rust en vrijheid. Haar leringen, vergeleken met de Sokratische methode en Zen-meditatie, hebben miljoenen mensen wereldwijd bereikt en diepgaande transformaties geïnspireerd.







Byron Katie speaks about Relationships: "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. There's never a mistake in the universe. So if your partner is angry, good. If there are things about him that you consider flaws, good, because these flaws are your won, you're projecting them, and you can write them down, inquire, and set yourself free. People go to India to find a guru, but you don't have to: You're living with one. Your partner will give you everything you need for your own freedom." BK.

"The fear of death is the last smokescreen for the fear of love. We think that we're afraid of the death of our body, though what we're really afriad of is the death of our identity. But through inquiry, as we understand that death is just a concept and that our identity is a concept too, we come to realize who we are. This is the end of fear."--Byron Katie, from the back cover.
This book is a collection of 15 dialogues that occurred throughout the United States and Europe with Byron Katie. Some of the people who worked with Katie have painful illnesses, others are lovelorn or in messy divorces. Some are simply irritated with a co-worker or worried about money. What they all have in common is a willingness to question, with Katie’s help, the painful thoughts that are the true cause of their suffering. In every case we see how Katie’s acute mind and fierce kindness helps each person dismantle for themselves what is felt to be unshakable reality.Although these dialogues make fascinating reading—some are both hilarious and deeply moving at once—they are intended primarily as teaching tools. Each took place in front of an audience, and Katie never lost connection with that audience, repeatedly reminding each person in the room to follow the dialogues inwardly, asking themselves the questions the participant must ask. The dialogue between Katie and these volunteers is an external enactment of precisely the kind of dialogue each person can have with their own thoughts. The results, even in the seemingly most dire situation, can be unimagined freedom and joy.
