Meister Eckhart is one of the mystics who shows us God is within ourselves, and that we are always connected to Him and the power of loving consciousness, if we remain willing and open to it.

In this article, I’ve collected three short and insightful Eckhart quotes to share with you. If we really meditate on these ideas, our spiritual life will blossom into something real and blissful.

Gratitude Is The Heart of Spirituality

“If the only prayer you said in your whole life was, “thank you,” that would suffice.” — Meister Eckhart

The whole purpose of being spiritual is to ground us in wise actions and blissful feelings. We want to live life, be successful at it, and feel good about the journey. Spirituality is taking the practice of those things seriously, and making them a part of our every day life.

If we were to only include one spiritual practice in our life, one thing that has the greatest impact — gratitude is that practice.

When we say “thank you” to God or the universe for something we honestly appreciate, we are met with a wave of peace and joy. The appreciation we already have is amplified, and made to include our whole life.
