A Mind at Home with Itself: Finding Freedom in a World of Suffering Paperback – September 7, 2017

I have loved katie's work for a very long time, done many hours of The Work, and read all her books to help me understand who I am. However, this gem of a book helped me to crack open the dream world I have been living in. Stephen Mitchel's beautiful translation of the diamond sutra accompanied by Katie's own interpretation is so rich and powerful. I was lucky enough to do it with my partner. If one approaches it with the Heart, the mind will enlighten. It was an amazing and beautiful experience to awaken from the dream I lived for 53 years. Our gratitude to Katie and Stephen.

If you're not in a place to get real with yourself, this book is NOT for you. If you're ready, this is a great place to be. Enjoy

Byron Katie never misses. This is one of Byron Kate's best books, with the foundation being about the "Buddha." This book continues with inquiry while infusing it with deeper concepts and meanings.

Unfortunately, I think I might be the only person who did not find this illuminating. Her works are great though and it seems a lot of people are helped by this but I wish she would mention that what she went through is exactly what siddhartha is talking about. these are not her ideas, it is just a process of discovery. I discovered the same thing Katie did while suffering for a long time. I had a spiritual awakening as well but my path led me to Tibetan Buddhism. I worked at a retreat center where monks came from nepal to do teachings here in the us. then, later I married a Man from Mumbai, India. He reads the Sanskrit texts and in India there was a class of people and it was their role to read and interpret the texts as others did not have this wisdom. The culture has deeper meanings and many words that we do not have in english. They have various words for love and we only have one. That is also why it is hard to translate these texts properly. That is also why I am hesitant to dive into works that align with Buddhism but do not follow it and just draw small pieces off of it. Nothing wrong with helping others but do be careful because the true learnings of buddhists say you must have a teacher to help you meditate and most especially if you have been through trauma. I've tried many methods over the years and read many books, there are only a couple that work for me: the Green Tara mantra, thich nhat hanh's teachings, and self compassion for healing. Trauma and suffering are not things that can be fixed easily and you will be hit with waves of emotions and if you aren't careful you will get suck in them. Your emotions do not disappear but you will learn to work with them. Just a word of caution for new folks to this kind of stuff. It is all well meaning but do not do this stuff in isolation.

It is a very beautiful book and it has helped me to understand and clarify my beliefs and to know myself

This book is a winner. If you are familiar with Katie's work you will be pleased with her continued insight into your spiritual aware4.

Enjoy rereading frequently
