Greetings to All:

 

Someone on another list I belong to found an interesting quote from the

writings of the German mystic Meister Eckhart. It parallels a Saying

from the Gospel of Thomas!

 

Godspeed,

James

" God is nearer to me than I am to my own self, my life depends upon God's

being near me. He is also present in a stone, or a log of wood, only

they do not know it. "

 

-- Meister Eckhart

 

" Jesus said, 'I am the Light that is over all things. I am all: from

me all came forth, and to me all attained. Split a piece of woodl I am

there. Lift up the stone, and you will find me there.' "

 

-- Jesus, Gospel of Thomas, Saying 77
