Stay with friends who support you in these. Talk with them about sacred texts, and how you are doing, and how they are doing, and keep your practices together.
Rumi
Image
Heartsick, heartbroken - to know love is to know pain. What could be more common? Even so, each broken heart is so singular that with it we probe the divine.
Rumi
Image
Who could be so lucky? Who comes to a lake for water and sees the reflection of moon.
Rumi
Image
This world's existence is one night long. There's a great lively gathering that night, but some people sleep through it.
Rumi
Image
O Love, O pure deep Love, be here, be now, Be all – worlds dissolve into your stainless endless radiance, Frail living leaves burn with your brighter than cold stares – Make me your servant, your breath, your core.
Rumi

The Heart that is not in love will fail the test.
Rumi

Ignorance is God's prison. Knowing is God's palace
Rumi

A pure heart, open to the Light, will be filled with the elixir of Truth.
Rumi
Image
If your knowledge of fire has been turned to certainty by words alone, then seek to be cooked by the fire itself. Don't abide in borrowed certainty. There is no real certainty until you burn if you wish for this, sit down in the fire.
Rumi
Image
Love cannot be learned or taught. Love comes as Grace.
Rumi
Image
Since you are not a prophet, follow the way taught by prophets. Since you are not a king, be a loyal subject to The King. Since you are not a captain, do not take the helm of the ship. Since you do not possess every skill, have partners in your business. Be as pliant as dough in the hands of others, that you may rise well.
Rumi
Image
You try to be faithful And sometimes you're cruel. You are mine. Then, you leave. Without you, I can't cope. And when you take the lead, I become your footstep. Your absence leaves a void. Without you, I can't cope. You have disturbed my sleep, You have wrecked my image. You have set me apart. Without you, I can't cope.
Rumi
Image
Even when tied in a thousand knots, the string is still but one.
Rumi
Image
You have forgotten the One who doesn't care about ownership, who doesn't try to turn a profit from every human exchange.
Rumi
Image
What a piece of bread looks like depends on whether you are hungry or not.
Rumi
Image
We often need to be refreshed.
Rumi
Image
Pour out wine till I become a wanderer from myself for in selfhood and existence I have felt only fatigue.
Rumi
Image
Your task? To work with all the passion of your being to acquire an inner light.
Rumi
Image
By the mercy of Allah Paradise has eight doors one of those is the door of repentance, child. All the others are sometimes open, sometimes shut, but the door of repentance is never closed. Come seize the opportunity: the door is open carry your baggage there at once.
Rumi
Image
Let yourself be loved, O Beloved, in the One. And from this One move out into the world, carrying within you the great potent energies of life to green your world, to create planets, suns, stars, stones, waves, oceans, to create new forms of life and expression - whether a friendship, a feeling or a new form of vocation.
Rumi
