More quotes by Rumi
This is a subtle truth. Whatever you love, you are.
Rumi
The waterwheel accepts water and turns and gives it away, weeping.
Rumi
Your heart mirrors not His love, Rusty with your sins it is, Remove this rust and you shall Perceive how Glorious He is.
Rumi
Do you hear what the music is saying? 'Come follow me and you will find the way. Your mistakes can also lead you to the truth. When you ask, the answer will be given.'
Rumi
Your defects are the ways that glory gets manifested ... That's where the Light enters you.
Rumi
Why should I be unhappy? Each parcel of my being is in full bloom.
Rumi
Oh Beloved, take me. Liberate my soul. Fill me with your love and release me from the two worlds. If I set my heart on anything but you let fire burn me from inside. Oh Beloved, take away what I want. Take away what I do. Take away what I need. Take away everything that takes me from you.
Rumi
Pull the thorn of existence out of the heart! Fast! For when you do, you will see thousands of rose gardens in yourself.
Rumi
And if one of our instruments breaks, it doesn't matter. We have fallen into the place where everything is music.
Rumi
If you only say one prayer in a day make it Thank You.
Rumi
You are not meant for crawling, so don't. You have wings. Learn to use them and fly.
Rumi
Free of who I was, free of presence, free of dangerous fear, hope, free of mountainous wanting.
Rumi
He is a letter to everyone. You open it. It says, Live.
Rumi
All the world Loves You, but You are nowhere to be found, Hidden and yet . . . completely obvious!
Rumi
Reason is powerless in the expression of Love. Love alone is capable of revealing the truth of Love and being a Lover. The way of our prophets is the way of Truth. If you want to live, die in Love die in Love if you want to remain alive.
Rumi
Don't look for Love, look for the one looking for Love.
Rumi
Longing is the core of mystery. Longing itself brings the cure. The only rule is, suffer the pain. Your desires must be disciplined And what you want to happen in time, sacrificed.
Rumi
Your radiance shines in every atom of creation yet our petty desires keep it hidden.
Rumi
Travel brings power and love back into your life.
Rumi
I am a child whose teacher is LOVE surely my master won't let me grow to be a fool.
Rumi
