It is not for those looking for a simple path. These fresh, stunning renderings of Eckharts writings in poetic form bring life to one of the great spiritual voices of any age. They reveal what it means to love God and find meaning in darkness. Not darkness in general, but your darkness, because it is the one thing you know something about - without facing your darkness, youll never know what it means to desire the light. Only when you are in the darkness, Meister says, do you have even the possibility of seeing the light."What Coleman Barks has done for Rumi, Sweeney and Burrows have done for Eckhart-making his insight accessible and his wisdom sing." -Carl McColman, author of The New Big Book of Christian Mysticism and Eternal HeartSweeney and Burrows, in poems that are as elegant as they are scholarly, revoice Meister Eckharts grounding and expansive instructions to "seek the light that shines / out of the darkness". -Pdraig Tuama, poet and host of Poetry Unbound, from On Being Studios Author Biography Meister Eckhart (12601328) was a priest, a mystic, and nearly a heretic (he died before the Church courts verdict).
