People who dwell in God dwell in the eternal now.
Meister Eckhart
Image
There is nothing so much like God in all the universe as silence.

Meister Eckhart
Image
What we plant in the soil of contemplation, we shall reap in the harvest of action.
Meister Eckhart
Image
I need to be silent for awhile, worlds are forming in my heart.
Meister Eckhart
Image
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
Image
The soul will bring forth Person if God laughs into her and she laughs back to him. To speak in parable, the Father laughs into the Son and the Son laughs back to the Father and this laughter breeds liking and liking breeds joy, and joy begets love, and love begets Person, and Person begets the Holy Ghost.
Meister Eckhart
Image
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
Image
I may err but I am not a heretic, for the first has to do with the mind and the second with the will!
Meister Eckhart
Image
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
Image
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
Image
People should not worry so much about what they do but rather about what they are.
Meister Eckhart
