THIS BOOK IS ABOUT one of the most profound mystics and philosophers of the Middle Ages, the German Dominican monk Eckhart von Hochheim, better known as Meister Eckhart , who near the end of his life was accused of heresy and convicted by the Inquisition.

There is no greater obstacle to God than time: and not only time but temporalities, not only temporal things but temporal affections, not only temporal affections but the very taint and smell of time." **CONTENTS PART 1: A MEDIEVAL MYSTIC AHEAD OF HIS TIME PART 2: SERMONS & MEDITATIONS (ANNOTATED) I - The Nearness of The Kingdom II - The Angel's Greeting III - True Hearing IV - The Self-Communication of God V - Sanctification VI - Outward and Inward Morality VII - The Attractive Power of God **OTHER BOOKS BY THE SAME AUTHOR: +THE NEW AGE CHRISTIAN SCROLLS VOLUME 1: MEISTER ECKHART Life and Legacy VOLUME 2: JESUS IN INDIA: The Lost Years of The Son of God VOLUME 3: THE SECRET TEACHINGS OF JESUS +THE SECRET OF NOW SERIES (7 VOLUMES) VOLUME 1: Living in "The Now" in Easy Steps VOLUME 2: Buddhist Meditation For Beginners VOLUME 3: Spiritual Hindu Tales to Calm Your Mind VOLUME 4: Christian Meditation in Easy Steps VOLUME 5: Meditation in 7 Easy Steps VOLUME 6: Stop Negative Thinking in 7 Easy Steps VOLUME 7: Understanding Eckhart Tolle: The Power of Living in The Now VOLUME 8: Eckhart Tolle: His Life & Quest for The Power of Now VOLUME 9 Understanding Eckhart Tolle 2: In Search of The Power of Now VOLUME 10 DALAI LAMA, His Magical Childhood and Teenage Years
