More quotes by Rumi
God's purpose for man is to acquire a seeing eye and an understanding heart. God gave you life and bestowed upon you his attributes eventually you will return to him. The rewards of life and devotion to God are love and inner rapture, and the capacity to receive the light of God.
Rumi
But learn this custom from the flower: silence your tongue.
Rumi
Study me as much as you like, you will not know me, for I differ in a hundred ways from what you see me to be. Put yourself behind my eyes and see me as I see myself, for I have chosen to dwell in a place you cannot see.
Rumi
The angel is free because of his knowledge, the beast because of his ignorance. Between the two remains the son of man to struggle.
Rumi
A generous friend gives life for a friend let's rise above this animalistic behavior and be kind to one another
Rumi
Be grateful for your life, every detail of it, and your face will come to shine like a sun, and everyone who sees it will be made glad and peaceful.
Rumi
Through love all that is bitter will be sweet.
Rumi
Your way begins at the other side. Become the sky. Take an axe to the prison wall. Escape. Walk out like someone suddenly born into color. Do it now.
Rumi
Your happy songs bring to me the scent of Heaven. Please keep singing!
Rumi
If you want to win hearts, sow the seeds of Love. If you want heaven, stop scattering thorns on the road.
Rumi
Two there are who are never satisfied -- the lover of the world and the lover of knowledge.
Rumi
The spirit and the body carry different loads and require different attentions. Too often we put the saddlebags on Jesus and let the donkey run loose in the pasture.
Rumi
In the orchard and rose garden I long to see your face. In the taste of Sweetness I long to kiss your lips. In the shadows of passion I long for your love.
Rumi
Knowest thou not the beauty of thine own face? Quit this temper that leads thee to war with thyself.
Rumi
Don't try to steer the boat. Don't open shop for yourself. Listen. Keep silent. You are not God's mouthpiece. Try to be an ear, And if you do speak, ask for explanations.
Rumi
My dear heart, never think you are better than others. Listen to their sorrows with compassion. If you want peace, don't harbor bad thoughts, do not gossip and don't teach what you do not know.
Rumi
Protect yourself......from your own thoughts.
Rumi
For hundreds of thousands of years I have been dust-grains floating and flying in the will of the air, often forgetting ever being in that state, but in sleep I migrate back.
Rumi
The sky will bow down to your beauty, if you do.
Rumi
I Wish I Could Give You A Taste Of The Burning Fire Of Love. There Is A Fire Blazing Inside Of Me. If I Cry About It, Or If I Don’t, The Fire Is At Work, Night And Day.
Rumi
