Subject: [K-list] The amazing path of Byron Katie.
From: Mystress Angelique Serpent

>The Work is Katie's brilliant strategy to uncover and dissolve concepts
>which prevent us from living life as it arises and being our true nature,
>Love itself. In doing The Work, the truth of this is not only revealed but
>experienced. Katie is free of any belief (she defines a belief as thoughts
>we become attached to and identify with). She is at peace with herself and
>with existence. She is as content facilitating intensives as not doing so,
>as her fulfillment comes from the perpetual joy and peace of simply being,
>which is endlessly fascinating in its infinite dimensions. The deftness,
>clarity and natural compassion with which she manages the thorniest of
>problems people bring to her is truly akin to a magic show.
<...>
>Katie does not suggest trying to "kill" the mind. She uses it to do what
>it does best: judge and project outside itself. Katie urges us to do this
>as a child would - without editing itself - and to inquire as to its
>validity with 4 simple questions:
>Is it true?
>Can I really know that it's true?
>What do I get when I hold that belief?
>Who (or what) would I be without that belief?
>It is at this point that she suggests we turn our projections and
>judgments around. Thoughts in themselves are harmless, unless one becomes
>attached and believes them to be true. Katie discovered the The Work of
>Byron Katie in observing the mind and its attempts to distract her from
>abidance in joyous peace and awareness. What the ancients in the East
>termed "Sat, Chit, Ananda" (Being, Consciousness, Bliss). She discovered
>that the mind has a very limited agenda. It will do anything to keep us
>from knowing that what Is simply Is.
