I recently began reading, at the inspiration of the post by my friend here, Meister Eckhart (Meister is German for Master - just read that today in the introduction to the Complete Mystical Works of Meister Eckhart). (Interesting side note - Meister is not his first name. In the Eckhart book, which is an older work, the translator said that after the title of Meister was given to Eckhart, he was then known (from that time on) as Meister. My observation is I am not aware of any other individual known by that title from antiquity.)
Anyway, I first purchased the older work and its first chapter is a series of talks. The main emphasis just in this chapter alone that is very challenging is to see God in everything, and Eckhart means everything.
So I also purchased and read On Becoming a Mystical Christian. I read this before I got the Eckhart book. So I am reading English's book and he references this song. Not even a Christian band, but wow what a work of Art. It took me a few times to "get" the whole video, but God is there in it.
So I am going to post a few posts of various things that draw me to God. Right now it is going to be new songs/music that God comes through to me.
