"As God Is"

[Guest guest]

In Meditations with Meister Eckhart, by Matthew Fox, Bear & Company, Inc. Santa

Fe, New Mexico, 1983, Meister Eckhart (1260 – 1329) says that:

 

"God is not found in the soul by adding anything,

but by a process of subtraction."

 

"How should you love God?

I will tell you.

Love God as God is –

This means: love God as God is

A not-God,

A not-mind,

A not-person,

A not-image.

More than this, Love God as God is

A pure, clear One

Who is separate from all twoness."

 

Although Martin Luther admired Meister Eckhart, unfortunately there is no

tradition, lineage or direct methods taught and Meister Eckhart was almost

ex-communicated from the church.

Hello Gloria,

 

Just love that side of Eckhart, no tradition,

lineage or direct method. Simply saying is

Name and listenning to the silence after is

enougth to open "something". But that is a

method....
