He taught that to truly experience God, you have to empty yourself—let go of your ego, desires, and even your ideas about God. The more you cling to “me, my wants, my thoughts,” the more you block the divine.

Instead of chasing God like something far away, Eckhart says God is already within you—you just have to be still enough to realize it. It’s not about rituals or fancy prayers; it’s about surrendering, letting go, and simply being.

Stop overthinking, step out of your own way, and experience the divine directly.
