Johannes Tauler Quote

It is certain that if God is to be
born in the soul
it must turn back to eternity….
It must turn in toward itself with all
its might, must recall itself,
and concentrate all its faculties within itself,
the lowest as well as the highest.
All its dissipated powers must be gathered up into one,
because unity is It is certain that if God is to be born in the soul it must turn back to eternity strength.
