Jewish & Christian Spirituality

Though he lived in the 13th century, Meister Eckhart is in many ways modern. His thinking was deeply ecumenical, encompassing not just Judaism, Buddhism, and Hinduism but also shamanism and indigenous spirituality. He advocated for social, economic, and gender justice; taught about what we now call ecology; and championed artistic creativity.

Born into Spanish nobility in 1515, Teresa entered the monastic life at age 20 and was eventually guided to reform the Carmelite Order, where she introduced the practice of meditation.

The spirit of one of the most revered figures of the 20th century is revealed in this unique blend of memories, reflections, and prayers.
