Liber Positionum - Meister Eckhart - Bog

Liber Positionum is a philosophical and theological treatise written by the German mystic and theologian Meister Eckhart. The book is a collection of sermons and lectures delivered by Eckhart, in which he explores the nature of God, the soul, and the relationship between the two. Eckhart's teachings are rooted in Christian theology, but he also draws on the works of ancient philosophers such as Aristotle and Plato. The book is divided into two parts. The first part focuses on the nature of God and the soul, and Eckhart argues that the soul is capable of union with God through a process of detachment from worldly desires and a deepening of one's spiritual awareness. The second part of the book explores the practical implications of this union, including the importance of humility, detachment, and love for others. Throughout the book, Eckhart emphasizes the importance of direct experience of God, rather than relying solely on the teachings of the Church or scripture. He also challenges traditional Christian teachings on sin and redemption, arguing that true spiritual growth requires a radical transformation of the self, rather than simply following a set of rules or doctrines. Overall, Liber Positionum is a deeply philosophical and spiritual work that continues to be studied and debated by scholars and theologians. It offers a unique perspective on Christian mysticism and the nature of God, and remains a significant contribution to the history of Christian thought.THIS 48 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Works of Meister Eckhart, by Meister Eckhart.
