More quotes by Rumi
Whether you love God or you love a human being, if you love enough you will come into the presence of Love itself.
Rumi
Play the flute of felicity! You, yourself, are the melody.
Rumi
If you want what visible reality can give, you are an employee. If you want the unseen world you are not living with your truth. Both wishes are foolish, but you'll be forgiven for forgetting that what you really want is loves confusing joy.
Rumi
Always search for your innermost nature in those you are with, as rose oil imbibes from roses.
Rumi
Do you pay regular visits to yourself? Start now.
Rumi
The same wind that uproots trees makes the grass shine. The lordly wind loves the weakness and the lowness of grasses. Never brag of being strong. The axe doesn't worry how thick the branches are. It cuts them to pieces. But not the leaves. It leaves the leaves alone.
Rumi
You could string a hundred endless days together, My soul would find no comfort from this pain. You laugh at my tale? You may be educated But you haven’t learned to love till you’re insane
Rumi
Silence is an ocean. Speech is a river. When the ocean is searching for you, don't walk into the river. Listen to the ocean.
Rumi
You do not see clearly the evil in yourself, else you would hate yourself with all your soul. Like the lion who sprang at his image in the water, you are only hurting yourself, O foolish man. When you reach the bottom of the well of your own nature, then you will know that the vileness was from yourself.
Rumi
Be with those who help your being. Don't sit with indifferent people, whose breath comes cold out of their mouths.
Rumi
Dance where you can break yourself up to pieces and totally abandon your worldly passions.
Rumi
I've said before that every craftsman searches for what's not there to practice his craft.
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
Love has come to rule and transform Stay awake, my heart, stay awake.
Rumi
Regard a king as someone unconcerned with kingship.
Rumi
You are more valuable than both heaven and earth. What else can I say? You don’t know your own worth.
Rumi
The soul which cannot endure fire and smoke won't find the Secret.
Rumi
Lo, for I to myself am unknown, now in God's name what must I do?
Rumi
Love asks us to enjoy our life For nothing good can come of death. Who is alive? I ask. Those who are born of love. Seek us in love itself, Seek love in us ourselves. Sometimes I venerate love, Sometimes it venerates me.
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
