A Thousand Names for Joy: Living in Harmony with the Way Things Are

by Byron Katie

A Thousand Names for Joy: Living in Harmony with the Way Things Are Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

“Byron Katie is one of the truly great and inspiring teachers of our time. I encourage everyone to immerse themselves in this phenomenal book.” –Dr. Wayne W. Dyer

In her first two books, Loving What Is and I Need Your Love–Is That True? Byron Katie showed how suffering can be ended by questioning the stressful thoughts that create it. Now, in A Thousand Names for Joy, she encourages us to discover the freedom that lives on the other side of inquiry.

Stephen Mitchell–the renowned translator of the Tao Te Ching–selected provocative excerpts from that ancient text as a stimulus for Katie to talk about the most essential issues that face us all: life and death, good and evil, love, work, and fulfillment. With her stories of total ease in all circumstances, Katie does more than describe the awakened mind; she lets you see it, feel it, in action.

Review:

“Byron Katie is one of the truly great and inspiring teachers of our time. She has been enormously helpful to me personally. I love this very wise woman, and I encourage everyone to immerse themselves in this phenomenal book.”

Dr. Wayne W. Dyer

Review:

“Byron Katie’s Work . . . acts like a razor-sharp sword that cuts through illusion and enables you to know for yourself the timeless essence of your being.”

Eckhart Tolle, author of The Power of Now

From the Hardcover edition.

Synopsis:

This unusual collaboration brings together the Way (the Tao) and the Work, Katie's form of self-inquiry and path to joy. In each chapter, Mitchell presents Katie with a passage from the Tao and she offers an exposition on that theme.

As a Psychiatrist for 23 years who now does and shares The Work of Byron Katie with patients, I cherish anything Katie writes with her gifted author husband. This book transported me into a wonderful place that is available to all of us. Byron Katie experiences life with no fear and no attachment or identifcation with thought. This book is an amazing translation of the Tao written by Stephen Mitchell using Katie's words in a way that brings us into her experience of being at peace with what is 24/7. It is a gorgeously written book. I highly recommend it!
