Meister Eckhart - A Mystic Warrior for Our Time

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 call ecology; and championed artistic creativity.

In a series of deeply inspiring and challenging metaphorical meetings, Matthew Fox introduces this pioneering medieval thinker to modern thought-leaders and activists including the Dalai Lama, Thomas Merton, Joanna Macy, Black Elk, Rumi, Adrienne Rich and others.
