艾克哈特大師

艾克哈特大師(德語:Meister Eckhart),本名艾克哈特·馮·霍赫海姆(德語:Eckhart von Hochheim),或稱約翰尼斯·艾克哈特(德語:Johannes Eckhart),是一位德國神學家哲學家和神秘主義者,出生在神聖羅馬帝國圖林根州的Landgraviate。十多歲時便加入道明會並任高級職務。作為佈道者他效力極高,其講道方法給同時代人和後來者留下了極深刻的印象。對於德語哲學術語的創製也作出重大貢獻。其關注的最主要問題是日常生活中持續精神實踐的原理的傳播。他非傳統的,有時甚至是挑釁性的言論常常與當時的普遍信仰相牴觸,故而引起了轟動。比如他認為,「靈魂的根基」不像所有的動物是被上帝所創造的,但是神聖的,非受造的。靈的的原因即神性,是瞬間表現的。[note 1]
