"Byron Katie's workshops are riveting to watch, and not just because people
are baring their souls. Katie's laser-like tough love burns away all illusions."
— The Times (London)
WHO WOULD YOU BE
WITHOUT YOUR STORY?
This book is a collection of fifteen dialogues with Byron Katie that
occurred throughout the United States and Europe. Some of the people who
worked with Katie had painful illnesses, others were lovelorn or in messy
divorces, some were simply irritated with a co-worker or worried about money.
What they all had in common was a willingness to question, with Katie's help,
the painful thoughts that are the true cause of all suffering. In every case, we
see how Katie's acute mind and fierce kindness helped each person dismantle
for him- or herself what was 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 and ask themselves the questions the participant must
ask. The dialogue between Katie and these volunteers is an external enactment
of precisely the kind of dialogue all readers can have with their own thoughts.
The result, even in the seemingly most dire situation, can be an unimagined
freedom and joy.
Since 1986, Byron Katie has introduced The Work directly to millions of people
throughout the world at free public events; in prisons, hospitals, churches, corporations,
universities, and schools; at weekend intensives; and at her nine-day School for The
Work. She is the author of the best-selling books Loving What Is; I Need Your Love—Is That
Tiue?; A Thousand Names for Joy; and, with Hay House, Question Your "Illinking, Change the World.
