Image
Where intuition finds, love follows, and memory and all the soul as well.
Meister Eckhart
Image
Your own efforts did not bring it to pass, only God-but rejoice if God found a use for your efforts in His work.
Meister Eckhart
Image
The soul does not grow by addition but by subtraction.
Meister Eckhart
Image
He is conscious only of God...To be conscious of knowing God is to know about God and self.
Meister Eckhart
Image
God is bound to act, to pour himself out (into thee) as soon as ever he shall find thee ready.
Meister Eckhart
Image
This much is certain: when a man is happy, happy to the core and root of beatitude, he is no longer conscious of himself or anything else.
Meister Eckhart
Image
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
Image
It is in the darkness that one finds the light.
Meister Eckhart
Image
The soul must long for God in order to be set aflame by God's love but if the soul cannot yet feel the longing, then it must long for the longing. To long for the longing is also from God.
Meister Eckhart
Image
A pure heart is one that is unencumbered, unworried, uncommitted and which does not want its own way about anything but which, rather, is submerged in the loving will of God.
Meister Eckhart
Image
For the person who has learned to let go and let be, nothing can ever get in the way again.
Meister Eckhart
Image
And suddenly you know: It's time to start something new and trust the magic of beginnings.
Meister Eckhart
Image
God is at home. We are in the far country.
Meister Eckhart
Image
There is nothing so much like God in all the universe as silence.
Meister Eckhart
Image
The love by which we love God is the very same love with which God has first loved us.
Meister Eckhart
Image
People who have let go of themselves are so pure that the world cannot harm them.
Meister Eckhart
Image
The soul loves the body. And consider too how it is that the body is more in the soul than the soul is in the body.
Meister Eckhart
Image
Jesus might have said, I became man for you. If you do not become God for me, you wrong me.
Meister Eckhart
Image
The most important hour is always the present. The most significant person is precisely the one sitting across from you right now. The most necessary work is always love.
Meister Eckhart
Image
He who would be serene and pure needs but one thing, detachment.
Meister Eckhart
