More quotes by Rumi
Don't be fooled by my beauty - the light of my face comes from the candle of my spirit.
Rumi
Let the Beloved be a hat pulled down firmly on my head.
Rumi
You run back and forth listening for unusual events, peering into the faces of travelers. Why are you looking at me like a madman? I have lost a friend. Please forgive me.
Rumi
What strikes the oyster shell doesn't damage the pearl.
Rumi
Sometimes in order to help He makes us cry Happy the eye that sheds tears for His sake Fortunate the heart that burns for His sake Laughter always follow tears Blessed are those who understand Life blossoms wherever water flows Where tears are shed divine mercy is shown
Rumi
When the ocean surges, don't let me just hear it. Let it splash inside my chest!
Rumi
Ignorance is God's prison. Knowing is God's palace
Rumi
I learned that every mortal will taste death. But only some will taste life.
Rumi
Oh you, unceasing sun, to me Your particles communicate The luminous essence of God, Are you our God? I do not know. Intoxicated, I say nought, Bewitched by the magic potion. I cannot differentiate Between my drunk and sober state.
Rumi
Be a helpful friend, and you will become a green tree with always new fruit, always deeper journeys into love.
Rumi
Lovers move like lightning and wind. No contest. Theologians mumble, rumble-dumble, necessity and free will, while lover and beloved pull themselves into each other.
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
Your hand opens and closes, opens and closes. If it were always a fist or always stretched open, you would be paralysed. Your deepest presence is in every small contracting and expanding, the two as beautifully balanced and coordinated as birds' wings.
Rumi
Sometimes the shadow stays next to the Light. Sometimes it disappears into the Light
Rumi
Love is the vital core of the soul. And of all you see, only love is infinite.
Rumi
If Your Eyes Are Opened, You'll See The Things Worth Seeing.
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
Every bird will follow it's specie.
Rumi
As you live Deeper in the Heart, the Mirror gets clearer and cleaner.
Rumi
There is none dwelling in the house but God. When a man is awakened he melts and perishes.
Rumi
