Truly, it is in darkness that one finds the light, so when we are in sorrow, then this light is nearest of all to us

Truly, it is in darkness that one finds the light, so when we are in sorrow, then this light is nearest of all to us

Meister Eckhart, a German theologian, philosopher, and mystic from the 13th century, is known for his profound teachings on spirituality and the nature of God. One of his most famous quotes is, “Truly, it is in darkness that one finds the light, so when we are in sorrow, then this light is nearest of all to us.” This quote encapsulates Eckhart’s belief in the transformative power of suffering and the importance of embracing the darkness in order to find true enlightenment.

Eckhart believed that suffering and sorrow were not to be avoided or suppressed, but rather embraced as opportunities for growth and spiritual awakening. He saw darkness as a necessary part of the human experience, a place where we confront our deepest fears and insecurities, and ultimately find the light of divine truth within ourselves.

In Eckhart’s view, it is only through facing our darkest moments that we can truly understand the nature of God and our own inner light. He believed that God was present in all things, even in the midst of suffering and despair, and that it was in these moments of darkness that we could most clearly see and feel the presence of the divine.

For Eckhart, sorrow was not something to be feared or avoided, but rather a gateway to a deeper understanding of ourselves and our connection to the divine. He believed that by embracing our sorrow and allowing ourselves to fully experience it, we could transcend our pain and suffering and find true peace and enlightenment.
