Theologia Germanica

Theologia Germanica is a spiritual text from the 14th century, often associated with the German mystics, particularly Eckhart. It focuses on the nature of God, the human soul, and the path to spiritual enlightenment. The work emphasizes inner transformation, the importance of love and humility, and the idea that true knowledge of God comes from a direct, personal experience rather than intellectual understanding. It encourages readers to seek a deeper relationship with the divine, transcending religious dogma and intellectualism to achieve a union with God through faith and self-awareness.
