This quote is easily not understood.

This link has a very good talk on this and other quotes to really understand the abstract, if you will, or deep meaning of his words.

We can let this letting go become our prayer. Thus Meister Eckhart confessed that he “prayed God to rid me of God.”
One must recognize the importance of letting go in this radical way of no-images...
No symbols or images are allowed to hang around—not even our names and symbols for God; we pray even to let go of God.

The entire talk explains so much.

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru
