Meister Eckhart is one of the most enigmatic and influential mystics of the Western spiritual tradition. Throughout his writings he emphasizes each person's God-given potentiality for knowing God and becoming one with the divine spark in the depths of their being. This mystical understanding of the self-birthing God within the human soul transcends Eckhart's own time and remains as vital today as it was to those who first heard him speak in fourteenth-century Germany.
As with all the books in this series, the extracts gathered here are arranged under thirty headings, providing daily meditations for a month.
