More DescriptionTo live has never been easy. Thus ethics is born as the art of being, thinking, loving and doing.Meister Eckhart´s teachings reveal a concept of duty absolutely different from the current concept, and even from the concept of duty in most systems throughout the history of philosophy. In his view, duty is moved by freedom and pure love toward God, the human race and the world. Freedom and love are the most powerful tools to think, decide, and act with, at any time in lifetime, in all respects.The deepest comprehension of one´s own story is fundamental, and Meister Eckhart also explains how to transfigure suffering and take consolation from it.In the eckhartian ethics all events and things find their meaning within the greatest unity of sense, where God´s will and man´s will interact unceasingly.Meister Eckhart discovers the divine uncreated essence deeply concealed in man´s nature. But to follow this way will imply the acceptance, the disposition, and the personal effort on your part.
