Produktbeschreibung
pMeister Eckhart (12601328) was a priest, a mystic, and nearly a heretic (he died before the Church courts verdict). In the 20th century, the Roman Catholic Church rehabilitated him and the late Pope John Paul II spoke of his work with fondness./ppHowever, what makes him of particular interest is the fact that he has influenced a wide range of spiritual teachers and mystics both inside and outside the Christian tradition. Erich Fromm, Eckhart Tolle, Richard Rohr, D. T. Suzuki, and Rudolf Steiner have all credited Eckhart as being an important influence on their thought. In addition, his work has influenced the development of 20th century American Buddhism and the Theosophical tradition./ppEckhart wrote at a timemuch like our ownwhen society appeared to be coming apart at the seams. In the midst of all that chaos and uncertainty, he captured the many forms and stages of the love of God, the mystic path, and the journey of transformationin language so startling that he, too, was often accused of heresy./ppNow, seven centuries later, this fresh, stunning rendering of his work translates the essence of one of Christianitys greatest poetic and spiritual voices. Here is a book that conveys the heart of Eckharts teaching on what it means to love God and embark on an authentic spiritual journeya journey that is characterized by mystery, paradox, and an embrace of the unknown./p
