"This Desert is the God" - Meister Eckhart

Posted on 00:04 by Unknown
This desert is the God

That no foot ever trod,
Creating meaning
Never went there:
That is, but nobody knows what.
It is here, It is there,



It is far, It is near,
It is deep, It is high,
Thus, It is
Neither this or that.



It is light, It is clearness,
It is darkness,
It is unnamed,
It is unknown,
Free from the beginning and the end,
That stands still,
Naked, without cloth.
