More quotes by Rumi
Love is the whole thing. We are only pieces.
Rumi
What can I do my friends, if I do not know? I am neither Christian nor Jew, nor Muslim nor Hindu. What can I do? What can I do? Not of the East, nor of the West, Nor of the land, nor of the sea, Not of nature's essence, nor of circling heavens. What could I be?
Rumi
Every moment, a voice, out of this world, calls on our soul, to wake up and rise.
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
Let the Beloved be a hat pulled down firmly on my head.
Rumi
Such a strong thing LOVE, changes everything.
Rumi
You've been walking the ocean's edge, holding up your robes to keep them dry. You must dive naked under, and deeper under, a thousand times deeper!
Rumi
How can I know anything about the past or the future, when the light of the Beloved shines only Now.
Rumi
For hundreds of thousands of years I have been dust-grains floating and flying in the will of the air, often forgetting ever being in that state, but in sleep I migrate back.
Rumi
You left ground and sky weeping, mind and soul full of grief. No one can take your place in existence, or in absence. Both mourn, the angels, the prophets, and this sadness I feel has taken from me the taste of language, so that I cannot say the flavor of my being apart.
Rumi
You left and I cried tears of blood. My sorrow grows. Its not just that You left. But when You left my eyes went with You. Now, how will I cry?
Rumi
Awake asleep ought to be with us - So he may see dreams in wakefulness.
Rumi
When you reach the bottom of the well of your own nature, then you will know that the vileness was from yourself.
Rumi
I made an oath to myself: as long as I live as long as my soul remains in this body I won't deviate from the right way but later I looked to my left and then to my right and I saw our beloved everywhere how could I make a wrong turn?
Rumi
In truth everything and everyone Is a shadow of the Beloved, And our seeking is His seeking And our words are His words... We search for Him here and there, while looking right at Him. Sitting by His side, we ask: 'O Beloved, where is the Beloved?'
Rumi
Be like the sun for grace and mercy. Be like the night to cover others' faults. Be like running water for generosity. Be like death for rage and anger. Be like the Earth for modesty. Appear as you are. Be as you appear.
Rumi
The garden of the world has no limits except in your mind. Its presence is more beautiful than the stars with more clarity than the polished mirror of your heart.
Rumi
Love isn't the work of the tender and the gentle Love is the work of wrestlers. The one who becomes a servant of lovers is really a fortunate sovereign. Don't ask anyone about Love ask Love about Love. Love is a cloud that scatters pearls.
Rumi
My soul is my guide, for my soul is of that abode. I will not speak of the earthly. I am of the unknown
Rumi
Are you searching for the river of your soul? Then come out of your prison. Leave the stream and join the river that flows into the ocean.
Rumi
