The motto of enlightenment is therefore: Sapere aude! Have courage to use your own understanding!

IN THE following book I attempt to call the listener's attention to the closeness of Meister Eckhart's way of thinking to that of Mahāyāna Buddhism, especially of Zen Buddhism.

At birth you received a certain vibration consisting of the combination of ethereal vibrations existing at the moment. This vibration was impressed upon you very much as a note from an orchestra maybe transmitted by the stylus of a phonograph to the sensitive wax receiver with every single note and every shade of tone intact.
