Neither time nor…

Meister Eckhart (1260-1328), Page: Quotes, Quote Author

We feel an inkling of the perfection and stability of eternity, for there is neither time nor space, neither before nor after, but everything present in one new, fresh-springing now where millenniums last no longer than the twinkling of an eye.
–Meister Eckhart (1260-1328)

The quiet mind…

Abandonment (of self), Detachment, Meister Eckhart (1260-1328), Page: Quotes, Quote Author

The most perfect prayer, one well nigh omnipotent, and the worthiest work of all is the outcome of a quiet mind. The quieter it is, the more powerful, the worthier, the deeper, the more telling and more perfect prayer. The quiet mind is one which nothing weighs on, nothing worries, which is free from ties and all self-seeking, is wholly merged into the will of God and dead to its own.
–Meister Eckhart (1260-1328)

Be aware of God…

Meister Eckhart (1260-1328), Page: Quotes, Quote Author, Quote Topic, Spiritual (life)

A man may go into the field and say his prayer and be aware of God, or he may be in Church and be aware of God; but if he is more aware of Him because he is in a quiet place, that is his own deficiency and not due to God, Who is alike present in all things and places, and is willing to give Himself everywhere so far as lies in Him… He knows God rightly who knows Him everywhere.
–Meister Eckhart (1260-1328)

If you have failings…

Meister Eckhart (1260-1328), Page: Quotes, Quote Author, Quote Topic, Spiritual (life)

If you have failings, ask God often whether it be His honor and pleasure to take them away from you; for without Him you can do nothing. If he takes them away, thank Him; but if He does not do that, you will bear it no more, however, as the defect of a sin, but as a great trial with which you are to gain merit and practice patience. You should be content, whether or not He accords you His gift.
–Meister Eckhart (1260-1328)
