More quotes by Meister Eckhart
What we plant in the soil of contemplation, we shall reap in the harvest of action.
Meister Eckhart
Wisdom consists in doing the next think you have to do, doing it with your whole heart, and finding delight in doing it.
Meister Eckhart
No-one knows what the soul is. But what we do know is, the soul is where God works compassion
Meister Eckhart
Where intuition finds, love follows, and memory and all the soul as well.
Meister Eckhart
There is something in the soul that is so akin to God that it is one with Him... It has nothing in common with anything created.
Meister Eckhart
There is no greater valor nor no sterner fight. He who would be what he ought to be must stop being what he is.
Meister Eckhart
And suddenly you know: It's time to start something new and trust the magic of beginnings.
Meister Eckhart
I am what I wanted and I want what I am.
Meister Eckhart
It is a fair trade and an equal exchange: to the extent that you depart from things, thus far, no more and no less, God enters into you with all that is his, as far as you have stripped yourself of yourself in all things. It is here that you should begin, whatever the cost, for it is here that you will find true peace, and nowhere else.
Meister Eckhart
Spirituality is not to be learned by flight from the world, or by running away from things, or by turning solitary and going apart from the world. Rather, we must learn an inner solitude wherever or with whomsoever we may be. We must learn to penetrate things and find God there.
Meister Eckhart
People who have let go of themselves are so pure that the world cannot harm them.
Meister Eckhart
In this breaking-through, I receive that God and I are one. Then I am what I was, and then I neither diminish nor increase, for I am then an immovable cause that moves all things.
Meister Eckhart
In my breaking through...I transcend all creatures and am neither God nor creature...for in this breaking through I find that God and I are both the same.
Meister Eckhart
Truth is something so noble that if God could turn aside from it, I could keep the truth and let God go.
Meister Eckhart
The outward man is the swinging door the inner man is the still hinge.
Meister Eckhart
To walk on not wondering am I right or doing something wrong.
Meister Eckhart
Truly, it is in darkness that one finds the light, so when we are in sorrow, then this light is nearest of all to us.
Meister Eckhart
It is in the darkness that one finds the light.
Meister Eckhart
Grace pours all beauty into the soul ... The soul means the world.
Meister Eckhart
I maintain that all sorrow comes from love of those things of which loss deprives me.
Meister Eckhart
