Swim out of your little pond.
Rumi
The Inspiration You Seek Is Already Within You. Be Silent And Listen.
Rumi
You wander from room to room Hunting for the diamond necklace That is already around your neck!
Rumi
Be with those who help your being. Don't sit with indifferent people, whose breath comes cold out of their mouths.
Rumi
Some huge work goes on growing. How could one person´s words matter? Where you walk heads pop from the ground. What is one seed head compared to you? On my death day I´ll know the answer. I have cleared this house, so that your work can, when it comes, fill every room. I slide like an empty boat pulled over the water.
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
Although you see the pit, you cannot avoid it.
Rumi
Why, when God's world is so big, did you fall asleep in a prison, of all places?
Rumi
Do not sit long with a sad friend. When you go to a garden do you look at the weeds? Spend more time with the roses and jasmines.
Rumi
Are you jealous of the ocean’s generosity? Why would you refuse to give this joy to anyone? Fish don’t hold the sacred liquid in cups! They swim the huge fluid freedom.
Rumi
By God, when you see your beauty you will be the idol of yourself.
Rumi
Walk patiently through this troubled world, and you will find great treasure. Even though your house may be small, look within it!
Rumi
There is some kiss we want with your whole lives, the touch of spirit on the body. Seawater begs the pearl to break its shell. And the lily, how passionately it needs some wild darling.
Rumi
He has afflicted you from every direction in order to pull you back to the directionless.
Rumi
What does this patch-sewing mean you ask? Eating and drinking. The heavy cloak of the body is always getting torn. You patch it with food and other ego-satisfactions.
Rumi
Love's nationality is separate from all other religions, The lover's religion and nationality is the Beloved (God). The lover's cause is separate from all other causes Love is the astrolabe of God's mysteries.
Rumi
I am in Love with Love and Love is in love with me.
Rumi
The ground submits to the sky and suffers whatever comes. Tell me, is the Earth worse for giving in like that?
Rumi
Every rose that is sweet-scented within, That rose is telling of the secrets of the Universal.
Rumi
There is someone who looks after us from behind the curtain. In truth we are not here, this is our shadow.
Rumi
