More quotes by Rumi
Today, let us swim wildly, joyously in gratitude.
Rumi
A heart filled with love is like a phoenix that no cage can imprison.
Rumi
We can't help being thirsty, moving toward the voice of water. Milk drinkers draw close to the mother. Muslims, Christians, Jews, Buddhists, Hindus, shamans, everyone hears the intelligent sound and moves with thirst to meet it.
Rumi
The message behind the words is the voice of the heart.
Rumi
When you lose all sense of self the bonds of a thousands chains will vanish. Lose yourself completely, return to the root of the root of your own soul.
Rumi
There is none dwelling in the house but God. When a man is awakened he melts and perishes.
Rumi
Although I may try to describe Love, When I experience it, I am speechless.
Rumi
Look at the moon in the sky, not the one in the lake.
Rumi
The body itself is to reveal the light that's blazing inside your Presence.
Rumi
Lovers find secret places inside this violent world where they make transactions with beauty.
Rumi
You are a fountain of the sun's light. I am a willow shadow on the ground. You make my raggedness silky.
Rumi
LOVE and LOVER live in Eternity. Other desires are substitutes for that way of being.
Rumi
There cannot be self-restraint in the absence of desire: when there is no adversary, what avails thy courage? Hark, do not castrate thyself, do not become a monk: chastity depends on the existence of lust.
Rumi
Those who are pure in heart achieve God-consciousness they are truly and actually aware of God at the center of their being (their heart). These sanctified individuals are said to be Possessors of the Heart.
Rumi
Water in the boat is the ruin of the boat, but water under the boat is its support.
Rumi
Do you think I know what I'm doing? That for one breath or half-breath I belong to myself? As much as a pen knows what it's writing, or the ball can guess where it's going next.
Rumi
The Past, the Future, O dear, is from you you should regard both these as one.
Rumi
You're not a drop in the ocean. You are the entire ocean in a drop.
Rumi
Criticism polishes my mirror.
Rumi
There is no Love greater than Love with no object. For then you, yourself, have become love, itself.
Rumi
