More quotes by Meister Eckhart
No man was ever lost except for one reason: having once left his ground he has let himself become too permanently settled abroad.
Meister Eckhart
A just person is one who is conformed and transformed into justice.
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
The price of inaction is far greater than the cost of making a mistake.
Meister Eckhart
For then I knew my soul - every soul - has always held Him.
Meister Eckhart
God wants nothing from you but the gift of a peaceful heart.
Meister Eckhart
The very best and highest attainment in this life is to remain still and let God act and speak in you.
Meister Eckhart
As long as I am this or that, or have this or that, I am not all things and I have not all things. Become pure till you neither are nor have either this or that then you are omnipresent and, being neither this nor that, are all things.
Meister Eckhart
The love by which we love God is the very same love with which God has first loved us.
Meister Eckhart
The outward work can never be small if the inward one is great, and the outward work can never be great or good if the inward is small or of little worth.
Meister Eckhart
What good is it to me that Mary gave birth to the son of God fourteen hundred years ago, and I do not also give birth to the Son of God in my time and in my culture? We are all meant to be mothers of God. God is always needing to be born.
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
When the Soul wants to experience something she throws out an image in front of her and then steps into it.
Meister Eckhart
You may call God love, you may call God goodness. But the best name for God is compassion.
Meister Eckhart
The more we have the less we own.
Meister Eckhart
God is at his greatest when I am at my least.
Meister Eckhart
The very best and noblest attainment in this life is to be silent and let God work and speak within. Therefore it is said: 'In the midst of silence the secret word was spoken to me'.
Meister Eckhart
Only those who have dared to let go can dare to re-enter.
Meister Eckhart
He who would be serene and pure needs but one thing, detachment.
Meister Eckhart
For the person who has learned to let go and let be, nothing can ever get in the way again.
Meister Eckhart
