Meister Eckhart - Selected Verses and Teachings for Meditation (1) - Christian Mystics

Johannes Eckhart was one of the greatest of Christian mystics. He was born at Hochheim in Thüringen, Germany, in 1260 and died c.1327. He entered the Dominican order when he was 15. Later he became a distinguished professor and taught at different universities. His direct and accessible teachings of a person's closeness to God inspired many people and he became well known throughout Europe. He was later summoned to an inquisition for heretical teachings, at which he vigorously defended himself. 🙏 May whatever goodness arises from these readings/offerings be for the benefit of all sentient beings.
