I love to not defend ever and to open my mind and take in what can always add to me, not take away from me.
Byron KatieA thought is harmless unless we believe it. Itโs not our thoughts, but our attachment to our thoughts, that causes suffering. Attaching to a thought means believing that itโs true, without inquiring. A belief is a thought that weโve been attaching to, often for years.
Byron KatieIf you put your hand into a fire, does anyone have to tell you to move it? Do you have to decide? No: When your hand starts to burn, it moves. You donโt have to direct it; the hand moves itself. In the same way, once you understand, through inquiry, that an untrue thought causes suffering, you move away from it.
