If it is bread that you seek, you will have bread. If it is the soul you seek, you will find the soul. If you understand this secret, you know you are that which you seek.

More quotes by Rumi
LOVE is what gives joy to giving joy.
Rumi
The thirsty look for water, but water also looks for thirsty.
Rumi
They say there is a doorway from heart to heart, but what is the use of a door when there are no walls?
Rumi
The Prophets accept all agony and trust it For the water has never feared the fire.
Rumi
When you find yourself with the Beloved, embracing for one breath, in that moment you will find your true destiny. Alas, don't spoil this precious moment. Moments like this are very, very rare.
Rumi
The dark thought, the shame, the malice, meet them at the door laughing, and invite them in.
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
I came to this earth so that I could find my way back to my Beloved.
Rumi
Dance when you're perfectly free.
Rumi
You are the honoured guest, Do not weep like a beggar For pieces of the world.
Rumi
Protect yourself......from your own thoughts.
Rumi
Disharmony prevails when you confuse Lust with LOVE, while the distance between the two is endless!
Rumi
I am your moon and your moonlight too I am your flower garden and your water too I have come all this way, eager for you Without shoes or shawl I want you to laugh To kill all your worries To love you To nourish you.
Rumi
Actually, your soul and mine are the same. We appear and disappear with each other.
Rumi
In our hearts there burns a fire... That burns all veils to their root and foundation When those veils have been burned away Then the heart will understand completely. Ancient love will unfold ever-fresh forms In the heart of the Spirit, In the core of the heart.
Rumi
Dance, and make joyous the love around you. Dance, and your veils which hide the Light shall swirl in a heap at your feet.
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
Know then that the body is merely a garment. Go seek the wearer, not the cloak.
Rumi
My heart rushes into the garden, joyfully tasting all the delights. But reason frowns, disapproving of the heart's bad manners.
Rumi
We often need to be refreshed.
Rumi
