More quotes by Rumi
The Eternal looked upon me for a moment with His eye of power, and annihilated me in His being, and become manifest to me in His essence. I saw I existed through Him.
Rumi
Be suspicious of what you want.
Rumi
How can I know anything about the past or the future, when the light of the Beloved shines only Now.
Rumi
The only way to measure a lover is by the grandeur of the beloved.
Rumi
Go my friend bestow your love even on your enemies if you touch their hearts what do you think will happen.
Rumi
Today I'm out wandering, turning my skull into a cup for others to drink wine from. In this town somewhere there sits a calm, intelligent man, who doesn't know what he's about to do!
Rumi
Always check your inner state with the lord of your HEART.
Rumi
Open the window of your heart and let the Spirit speak
Rumi
This is how I would die into the love I have for you: As pieces of cloud dissolve in sunlight.
Rumi
Bathe in the splendor of your own Light.
Rumi
In things spiritual, there is no partition, no number, no individuals. How sweet is the oneness-unearth the treasure of Unity.
Rumi
Oh, bird of my soul, fly away now, For I possess a hundred fortified towers.
Rumi
Let the beauty of what you love be what you do.
Rumi
Be like a river in generosity and giving help. Be like a sun in tenderness and pity. Be like night when covering other's faults. Be like a dead when furious and angry. Be like earth in modesty and humbleness. Be like a sea in tolerance. Be as you are or as you look like.
Rumi
On the path of Love we are neither masters nor the owners of our lives. We are only a brush in the hand of the Master Painter.
Rumi
Christian, Jew, Muslim, shaman, Zoroastrian, stone, ground, mountain, river, each has a secret way of being with the mystery, unique and not to be judged.
Rumi
Even though you're not equipped, keep searching: equipment isn't necessary on the way to the Lord.
Rumi
I look into your eyes & see the universe not yet born.
Rumi
When you are dead, seek for your resting place not in the earth, but in the hearts of men.
Rumi
Thinking gives off smoke to prove the existence of fire. A mystic sits inside the burning. There are wonderful shapes in rising smoke that imagination loves to watch. But it's a mistake to leave the fire for that filmy sight. Stay here at the flame's core.
Rumi
