Eckhart's Four-Part Teaching
- Eckhart's teaching has four aspects: our divine nature, our estrangement from it, the path of detachment, and the birth of the word in the soul.
- These represent the mystical spiritual worldview within Christian traditions and other world religions.
The Gift of the Dilemma
- The seeker's dilemma, the estrangement from our divine nature, is a gift.
- This dilemma motivates us to seek God and discover the path back to our true selves.
Ultimate Reality
- In the fullest sense of reality, only God is truly real.
- We are not real in this ultimate sense because we are not the infinity of reality itself.
