Who was Meister Eckhart? Does he have anything to say to modern readers? Michael Demkovich presents the prophetic life and controversial work of this fourteenth-century Dominican friar and mystic who continues to appear in current works of Buddhist, New Age and traditional Christian writers. Demkovich unravels this medieval author's modern legacy by taking readers back to the core of what Meister Eckhart wrote and taught. This is a book that bridges contemporary spiritual searching with the forgotten practices of the Middle Ages. The book begins with a biography, followed by an explanation of Meister Eckhart's teaching on the Soul. In the final section the reader is presented with Eckhart's spirituality through a series of words and visual images--precisely the way Meister Eckhart taught during his lifetime.

The essays in this book represent the fruits of an interdisciplinary study of four temples in Rajasthan, India, jointly conducted by Lawrence A. Babb (anthropology), John E. Cort (religious studies), and Michael W. Meister (art history). The temples were chosen because they are quite ancient yet are also vibrantly functioning today. The results of the authors' research dramatically vindicate the idea that when disciplines are combined, the result is greater than the sum of the parts. The book shows that a functioning temple is many things at once. More than a mere physical structure, a temple is a center of economic activity, a focal point for political power, and a confluence of social relationships of every conceivable sort. It is also an object of aesthetic contemplation and judgment. And perhaps above all, a temple is a locus of sacred power that evokes deeply felt responses in those who worship there. Desert Temples weaves these many threads together in a volume unique in the extent to which it stresses the holistic approach to the study of India's sacred centers.
