Where Two are to Become One': Mysticism and Monism

Royal Institute of Philosophy Supplement 25:147-166 (1989)

Abstract

If you would know God, you must not merely be like the Son, you must be the Son yourself. With these words Meister Eckhart encapsulates the aim of Christian mysticism as he understood it: to know God, and to know God in such a way that the knower is not merely like Christ but actually becomes Christ, taken into the Trinity itself. Eckhart speaks frequently of this in his sermons.
