The "sermons" of the outstanding mystic and metaphysician of Western Europe, Master Eckhart, had a powerful influence on the entire history of European philosophy. In his speeches, carefully recorded by his numerous disciples, the mystic did not threaten eternal torment but encouraged a thoughtful and conscious life, did not demand obedience but encouraged and gave hope to his believers. For Eckhart, it is important that a person, despite being doomed to original sin, is able to improve and change, become more merciful to his neighbours and let God into his soul.
