More quotes by Rumi
The Soul is a stranger trying to find a Home somewhere that is not a where.
Rumi
What was said to the rose that made it open, was said to me, here in my chest.
Rumi
Woman is the light of God.
Rumi
If you are seeking, seek us with joy For we live in the kingdom of joy. Do not give your heart to anything else But to the love of those who are clear joy, Do not stray into the neighborhood of despair. For there are hopes: they are real, they exist – Do not go in the direction of darkness – I tell you: suns exist.
Rumi
I didn't come here of my own accord, and I can't leave that way. Whoever brought me here will have to take me home.
Rumi
Live in the nowhere that you come from even though you have got an address Here.
Rumi
There are many winds full of anger, and lust and greed. They move the rubbish around, but the solid mountain of our true nature stays where it's always been.
Rumi
Enough of words. Come to me without a sound.
Rumi
There is my body, in it an ocean formed of his glory, all the creation, all the universes, all the galaxies, are lost in it.
Rumi
This whole universe is but a drop of His Beauty!
Rumi
Everything you possess of skill, and wealth, and handicraft, wasn't it first merely a thought and a quest?
Rumi
Although I may try to describe Love, When I experience it, I am speechless.
Rumi
What matters is how quickly you do what your soul directs.
Rumi
O, Great Spirit, open my eyes, open heart's wings, open my ears to your voice in all things.
Rumi
The desire to know your own soul will end all other desires.
Rumi
You suppose you are the trouble But you are the cure You suppose that you are the lock on the door But you are the key that opens it It's too bad that you want to be someone else You don't see your own face, your own beauty Yet, no face is more beautiful than yours.
Rumi
My soul is my guide, for my soul is of that abode. I will not speak of the earthly. I am of the unknown
Rumi
Suffering is a gift in its hidden mercy
Rumi
If it is bread that you seek, you will have bread. If it is the soul you seek, you will find the soul. If you understand this secret, you know you are that which you seek.
Rumi
You're not a drop in the ocean. You are the entire ocean in a drop.
Rumi
