Page 3 Yet understand me well- To live the life of pure mind though you have lapsed from knowing Is the true adventure All is given and all will be received Pay attention to nature See there the operation of the cosmos- In the shell, the cone, the seed that breaks its mould to be what it in its essence is Yes This much and no less Bewilderment confronting and delighting you And understanding growing with the moment Until at last you come to Love- Previous Page / First / Next * * * Cf. by Martin Burke : Reading Meister Eckhart II - This Singing Ground More works inspired by Eckhart ||| Eckhart Home
Yet understand me well-
To live the life of pure mind though you have lapsed from knowing
Is the true adventure
All is given and all will be received
Pay attention to nature
See there the operation of the cosmos-
In the shell, the cone, the seed that breaks its mould to be what it in its essence is
Yes
This much and no less
Bewilderment confronting and delighting you
And understanding growing with the moment
Until at last you come to Love-
