Quotes to help explain

Meister Eckhart 14th c German mystic.

"There's a place in the soul that neither time, nor space, nor no creative thing can touch."

Irish Poet John O'Donohue:
What that means is there's "a place where there is a tranquility in you. And I think the intention of prayer, and spirituality and love, is now and again to visit that kind of inner sanctuary."

Eckhart:
Gd becomes, and Gd unbecomes.

John O'Donohue explains: Gd is only our name for it. And the closer we get to it, the more it ceases to be Gd.
