June 30, 2018
I’m sharing with you the highlighted thoughts, insights, realizations, and Katie’s words that I collected during Byron Katie’s Euro Tour — in Vienna, Amsterdam, and Paris 😍😍😍😍
Wishing you many insights too ☀️☀️☀️
Part 4 - Paris
🔸 You’re punishing him for what you were believing about him.
🔸 Reality is a gift — a flawless gift!
🔸 You never have to guess. Just ask and wait in stillness for the answer to come.
🔸 Me taking responsibility for how I see things doesn’t require other people in my life to change. But the clearer I get, the more I see how perfect they are.
🔸 There’s a way to wake up!
🔸 The mind that wrote it isn’t the same mind that is reading it now. It’s progressing. It sees more, clearer now.
Katie said this to a woman who was reading the continuation of her worksheet and laughing at her own written thoughts. After she inquired into some of them and saw the situation more clearly, she laughed at her remaining thoughts — realizing how absurd they were.
🔸 Can you realize what you don’t realize?
Can you make yourself do what you can’t do? — He’s just like you.
🔸 We’re all addicted to someone or something. Free is free.
🔸 3 sons!
He has a son. You have a son. His son isn’t yours. Your son isn’t his. You have a relationship with your son, he has a relationship with his son. Those two sons never met. He shouldn’t accept your son.
This was such a powerful moment. Katie was working with a woman who had problems with her ex-husband. Their shared child was at the center of their conflict. Katie explained it this way:
Yes, they have one child, but in reality there are three “children”:
The child as the father tells his story about him — his image of the child.
The child as the mother tells her story about him — her image of the child.
And the real, living child beyond both stories — whom they don’t even truly know, hidden behind their images.
Katie helped her see that her ex-husband doesn’t have to accept the “child” that exists only in her story about him.
🔸 Ego is identifying who you are — if you’re alone and don’t like this company.
💛 I hope you enjoyed reading my notes and insights.
P.S. 🌸 Sharing some photos from my Paris tour with Byron Katie ✨🦋☀️
Paris and the French audience outshone everyone 😍😍😍 From 1,300 to 1,600 participants today 😍😍😍🎉🎉🎉✨✨✨ — all sitting in awe, deeply engaged, as together we learn how to free ourselves from stressful thoughts and live a happier, freer life. A life in full alignment and harmony with ourselves and the whole universe, with inner peace at the very center of our being ✨✨✨☀️☀️☀️✨✨✨
In Amsterdam, there were around 750 participants, in Vienna about 900 on the first day and more than 1,000 on the second 😍😍😍✨✨✨✨ It’s truly fascinating to be an assistant at such a large-scale training and get a peek behind the scenes of how it all works 🧚🏻♀️🦋☀️🌈🎉🍭✨
