Byron Katie

“But “no beings to liberate” is the simple truth, and the truth is what sets us free. Far from making us passive and self-absorbed, it leads to generosity. If we truly understand that the self isn’t real, how can we act selfishly? And if there is no self, how can there be others that you can oppose? All beings are simply me, and it would be as crazy to hurt another human being as to purposely break my own leg. The Golden Rule isn’t a should. It’s not a matter of ethics; it’s a matter of fact. I do unto others as I do unto myself, because I realize that others are myself.”
