M aître Eckhart

   

« To surrender means you have to stop maintaining this hero at the centre of your own drama… And this hero is doomed because nobody can live at the centre of the drama thinging that he’s the hero and that everybody else has some kind of lesser role. So, that’s precisely the character we have to surrender when we move into that field of love. It’s always painful for him to take off his armour. He gets wounded immediately… He goes down with an arrow in his heart. »
