About Letting Go: The Teachings of Meister Eckhart

The 14th century Christian mystic Meister Eckhart asks, What is the joy that death does not have power to destroy and how can I discover it? In this retreat we will allow Eckhart to guide us toward this deathless joy in which we come to a profound experience of God as the reality of ourselves, others and all things.

Time will be given for group meditation, personal reflection and there will be discussion of these themes:

- Who was Meister Eckhart and what are the guiding principles of his teachings
- Setting out on the path of detachment: Dying to the illusions that imprison us
- The Birth of the word in the soul: As detachment deepens we discover God to be the reality of ourselves, others, and all things.
- Breakthrough into the Godhead: Passing into the infinite emptiness that we and God and all things manifest.

Caroline Myss on James Finley:

There are many compliments that I can pay James in my introduction of him to you, but of these, the highest is that I have never witnessed another teacher captivate his audience more profoundly than James Finley. The combination of his mastery of the of mysticism along with his style - that of a well-seasoned and astute spiritual director and psychologist - allows James to create an unparalleled atmosphere of receptivity, essential for piercing the depths of the human soul.
