Famous Quotes & Sayings

Byron Katie

Inquiry appears to be a process of thinking, but actually it's a way to undo thinking. Thoughts lose their power over us when we realize that they simply appear in the mind. They're not personal. Through The Work, instead of escaping or suppressing our thoughts, we learn to meet them with unconditional love and understanding.

Deb Caletti

Unconditional love is like a contry of two with no laws and no government. Which is all fine if everyone is peaceful and law abiding.

Carl Jung

May you bring unconditional love and infinite peace.
