Meister Eckhart · c. 1260–1328

Who this is
“He held the most prestigious chair in Christian theology — twice — and he is the only master in this book put on trial by the Inquisition for his sermons. He died with the verdict still pending, and his ideas spent six centuries circulating under other people's names.”
The big idea, in the book's words:
“Beneath everything you think of as "you" lies a ground where the soul and God are not two things — and God must be born there, in you, now.”
