Pondering How Words Work the Mind

"When I seek God
with something in mind,


the best I get is
the something I had

in mind."


Meister Eckart, circa 1305 CE, was a Dominican clergyman, scholar, and teacher.  His theological and mystical poems, and his sermons are still read today.

Zen also tries to enlighten us to the levels of consciousness, mind, and non-verbal paths to right living.
