Image
We are celebrating the feast of the Eternal Birth which God the Father has borne and never ceases to bear in all eternity... But if it takes not place in me, what avails it? Everything lies in this, that it should take place in me.
Meister Eckhart
Image
The soul does not grow by addition but by subtraction.
Meister Eckhart
Image
Time is what keeps the light from reaching us. There is no greater obstacle to God than time: and not only time but temporalities, not only temporal things but temporal affections, not only temporal affections but the very taint and smell of time.
Meister Eckhart
Image
Through the higher love the whole life of man is to be elevated from temporal selfishness to the spring of all love, to God: man will again be master over nature by abiding in God and lifting her up to God.
Meister Eckhart
Image
To the quiet mind all things are possible.
Meister Eckhart
Image
There are plenty to follow our Lord half-way, but not the other half. They will give up possessions, friends and honors, but it touches them to closely to disown themselves.
Meister Eckhart
Image
The man who has submitted his will and purposes entirely to God, carries God with him in all his works and in all circumstances.
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
Let God operate in thee Hand the work over to Him and do not disquiet thyself as to whether or no He is working with nature or above nature, for His are both nature and grace.
Meister Eckhart
Image
You will have peace to the extent that you have God, and the further you are away from God the less you will be at peace... Thus you may measure your progress with God by measuring your peace or the lack of it.
Meister Eckhart
Image
God is not good, or else he could do better.
Meister Eckhart
Image
If you seek the kernel, then you must break the shell. An likewise, if you would know the reality of Nature, you must destroy the appearance, and the farther you go beyond the appearance, the nearer you will be to the essence.
Meister Eckhart
Image
God wants nothing from you but the gift of a peaceful heart.
Meister Eckhart
Image
God is at his greatest when I am at my least.
Meister Eckhart
Image
Where intuition finds, love follows, and memory and all the soul as well.
Meister Eckhart
Image
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
Image
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
Image
The more deeply we are our true selves, the less self is in us.
Meister Eckhart
Image
Therefore, look only for this fishhook, and you will be happily caught. The more you are caught, the more you will be liberated.
Meister Eckhart
Image
God is at home. We are in the far country.
