More quotes by Rumi
The result of my life is no more than three words: I was raw, I became cooked, I was burnt.
Rumi
In Silence there is eloquence. Stop weaving and see how the pattern improves.
Rumi
You're not a drop in the ocean. You are the entire ocean in a drop.
Rumi
We carry inside us the wonders we seek outside us.
Rumi
Wash the dust from your SOUl and HEART with wisdom's WATER.
Rumi
When someone critises or disagrees with you, a small ant of hatred and antagonism is born in your heart. If you do not squash that ant at once, it might grow into a snake, or even a dragon.
Rumi
Any one in love will have no religion.
Rumi
No One in the Entire World is as Precious as You are.
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
Whenever Beauty looks, Love is also there.
Rumi
Doubt is a precipice on the way to God. Blessed is he who is freed from its bonds. He who fares without any doubt, adhere to his footprints if you do not know the way. Cleave to the footprints of the deer and advance with care that you may reach the musk-gland. By means of such trekking, even if you walk on fire, you will reach the luminous peak.
Rumi
And you? When will you begin that long journey into yourself?
Rumi
A heart filled with love is like a phoenix that no cage can imprison.
Rumi
When you reach the bottom of the well of your own nature, then you will know that the vileness was from yourself.
Rumi
O Beloved, where is the Beloved?
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
You live in my heart where no one sees you but I do. That vision becomes this art.
Rumi
Even though you tie a hundred knots, the string remains one.
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
Why set your heart on a piece ofearth,seek out the source which shines forever.
Rumi
