Today we share again n astounding bit of poetry from Meister Eckhart (1260–1327), the wonderful German Dominican mystic:
Do you want to know
what goes on in the core of the Trinity?
I will tell you.
In the core of the Trinity
the Father laughs
and gives birth to the Son.
The Son laughs back at the Father
and gives birth to the Spirit.
The whole Trinity laughs
and gives birth to us.
The contemplative journey of welcome and detachment is multifaceted, but one of it’s deepest and most abiding fruits is the JOY of the Trinity! May that joy be yours today!
