How to Meet the Ego with Understanding—The Work of Byron Katie®

Byron Katie talks with a woman from Serbia who asks, “Do we all have ego?” “What is an ego to you?” Katie says. “To me, the I that believes is the ego: the you that you believe to be you, the one you think is the thinker, the false self.” “Sometimes ego seems useful and constructive,” says the woman, “but sometimes it’s not useful. I don’t know how to question that part of me. How can I be at peace with that part of me?” “As you do the turnarounds of The Work, you begin to experience your true nature where you are at peace. Eventually, even that becomes not true. Then you're left happy for no reason. That’s the end of duality. For me, happiness just is. I can’t even claim it as peace of mind. When we continue to question our thoughts, we’re left with the positive, and there’s nothing we can do about that. It’s the song that matches our true nature.” The ego is the you that you believe you to be. —Byron Katie Website: http://www.thework.com Webcasts: http://www.livewithbyronkatie.com Subscribe:    / theworkofbk   Facebook:   / theworkofbyronkatie   Twitter:   / byronkatie   © 2018 Byron Katie International, Inc.
