More quotes by Rumi
The Soul is a stranger trying to find a Home somewhere that is not a where.
Rumi
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
Those who don't feel this love pulling them like a river, those who don't drink dawn like a cup of springwater or take in sunset like a supper, those who don't want to change, let them sleep.
Rumi
Suffering is a gift in its hidden mercy
Rumi
Daylight, full of small dancing particles. Can you see them when I whisper in your ear?
Rumi
Today I'm out wandering, turning my skull into a cup for others to drink wine from. In this town somewhere there sits a calm, intelligent man, who doesn't know what he's about to do!
Rumi
Half-heartedness doesn't reach into majesty. You set out to find God, but then you keep stopping for long periods at meanspirited roadhouses.
Rumi
Travel brings power and love back into your life.
Rumi
Start a huge, foolish project, like Noah…it makes absolutely no difference what people think of you.
Rumi
And if one of our instruments breaks, it doesn't matter. We have fallen into the place where everything is music.
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
...Blessed is anyone who knows who he or she really is and builds a place to live there.
Rumi
True beauty is a ray That springs from the sacred depths of the soul, and illuminates the body, just as life springs from the kernel of a stone and gives colour and scent to a flower.
Rumi
Discard yourself and thereby regain yourself. Spread the trap of humility and ensnare love.
Rumi
Oh lovers, where are you going? Who are you looking for? Your beloved is right here.
Rumi
The source is within you. And this whole world is springing up from it.
Rumi
A soul which is not clothed with the inner garment of Love should be ashamed of its existence.
Rumi
Be patient, even if every possibility seems closed.
Rumi
Just as the heart becomes carefree in a place of green, growing plants, goodwill and kindness are born when our souls enter happiness.
Rumi
A new moon teaches gradualness and deliberation and how one gives birth to oneself slowly. Patience with small details makes perfect a large work, like the universe. What nine months of attention does for an embryo forty early mornings will do for your gradually growing wholeness
Rumi
