Did Eckhart see mystic visions and if so, how did he initiate himself in to this craft?

Eckhart von Hochheim.

Was Dietrich Eckhart a visionary mystic, though?

I wouldn't judge a book the cover, but I can already imagine his books looking gaudy. Has he seen mystic visions and if so, how did he initiate himself in to this craft?

Through his readings in neoplatonism and hermeticism

Will reading Plotinus initiate me?

If you read Eckhart Tolle's book he did not have any visions. He explains one at the moment of enlightenment but just said the sound of a bird felt like he was envisioning a diamond.
