More quotes by Rumi
There is none dwelling in the house but God. When a man is awakened he melts and perishes.
Rumi
From the Distance You only See My Light Come closer and You will Know that I Am You.
Rumi
When one sense perceives the hidden, the invisible world becomes apparent to the whole.
Rumi
Behead yourself!... Dissolve your whole body into Vision: become seeing, seeing, seeing!
Rumi
Poems reach up like spindrift and the edge of driftwood along the beach, wanting! They derive from a slow and powerful root that we can’t see. Stop the words now. Open the window in the center of your chest, and let the spirits fly in and out.
Rumi
Do you pay regular visits to yourself? Don't argue or answer rationally. Let us die, and dying, reply.
Rumi
Work on your stony qualities and become resplendent like the ruby. Practice self-denial and accept difficulty. Always see infinite life in letting the self die. Your stoniness will decrease your ruby nature will grow. The signs of self-existence will leave your body, and ecstasy will take you over.
Rumi
What? Are you still pretending you are separate from the Beloved?
Rumi
Everything you see has its roots in the unseen world. The forms may change, yet the essence remains the same.
Rumi
If you love someone, you are always joined with them--in joy, in absence, in solitude, in strife.
Rumi
We are born of love. Love is our mother.
Rumi
When you notice a fault in your neighbour, search for the same in yourself.
Rumi
From the urgent way lovers want each other to the seeker's search for truth, all moving is from the mover. Every Pull Draws Us To The Ocean.
Rumi
Knowest thou not the beauty of thine own face? Quit this temper that leads thee to war with thyself.
Rumi
A new moon teaches gradualness and deliberation and how one gives birth to oneself slowly. Patience with small details makes perfect a large work, like the universe. What nine months of attention does for an embryo forty early mornings will do for your gradually growing wholeness
Rumi
The breezes at dawn have secrets to tell you Don't go back to sleep! You must ask for what you really want. Don't go back to sleep! People are going back and forth across the doorsill where the two worlds touch, The door is round and open Don't go back to sleep!
Rumi
The Past, the Future, O dear, is from you you should regard both these as one.
Rumi
Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself.
Rumi
Look at the moon in the sky, not the one in the lake.
Rumi
The radiant one in me has never said a word.
Rumi
