Description

Join us in a dialogue with CCARE’s founder and director, Dr. James Doty, who will ask Katie about her life’s amazing work and how compassion has played a role. This evening will begin with a short conversation, followed by The Work with Katie, and end with a book signing, which will be available for purchase by the Stanford Bookstore at the event. The talk will be recorded and posted to CCARE’s YouTube Channel and website several weeks after the event.

Step into an evening of radical self-inquiry with Byron Katie, as she launches her new book, A Mind at Home with Itself. The book weaves the brilliant clarity of the Diamond Sutra with the power of The Work, her method of self-inquiry. Katie will engage participants, using The Work, which is so sharp that it can cut through the most obstinate stressful thought and lead you to the freedom that is your birthright.

“Byron Katie gives you the how of enlightenment.” —Eckhart Tolle

“A truly illuminating and lively hookup of revered ancient Zen Diamond Sutra teachings and a wild and clear-eyed modern sage. It will help you to question deeply, inspire your spirit, and awaken your understanding.” - Jack Kornfield

“A Mind At Home With Itself—the words of an ancient spiritual master illuminated by the words of a modern one—shows us that life beyond suffering is possible, and can take each reader’s mind home to its singular, unique, immeasurably precious self.” - Martha Beck

“Byron Katie has rocked my world and shaken loose my mind more thoroughly than any other spiritual teacher I’ve ever encountered. I would recommend A MIND AT HOME WITH ITSELF to anyone like me—to anyone who has ever felt like her own mind was a very dangerous neighborhood.” - Elizabeth Gilbert

“I think Byron Katie is just a real thing. I love her to death. She’s pure and her intent is only to serve and she brings people back to reality so quickly. Teaches them not to believe their limiting thoughts and to question them and find the real truth.” - Tony Robbins

“A Mind at Home with Itself points directly to the wisdom within us, the ultimate treasure that resides in the open heart and quiet mind—and it shows us exactly how to access it. Its insights sparkle and shimmer from every page.” - Paul Hawken
