Meister Eckhart's Sermons
First Time Translated into English
Read by Eric Metzler
In Meister Eckhart's Sermons, the profound insights of a medieval philosopher-theologian come to life through a collection of seven thought-provoking sermons. Meister Eckhart, known for his unique blend of Christian mysticism and scholastic philosophy, invites listeners to explore the depths of spiritual awareness and the nature of God.
These sermons, translated by Claude Field, delve into themes of divine presence and the relationship between humanity and the divine. Eckhart's eloquent reflections challenge conventional notions of spirituality, encouraging a deeper understanding of joy and fulfillment in the presence of God.
Published in the early 20th century, this collection remains a significant work for those interested in medieval thought and Christian mysticism. With Eric Metzler's narration, listeners can engage with Eckhart's timeless wisdom and contemplate the transformative power of spiritual awareness.

Thank you to the reader and translator of these words. Meister Eckhart has a beautiful way with analogy that warrants multiple readings. the simplicity of the analogies cuts to the heart of the ideas and leaves a lasting impression to ponder regardless of your faith tradition.
