Image
For only when faithfulness turns to betrayal And betrayal into trust Can any human being become part of the truth.
Rumi
Image
You have been a prisoner of a little pond I am the ocean and its turbulent flood Come merge with me leave this world of ignorance
Rumi
Image
This is enough was always true. We just haven't seen it.
Rumi
Image
Earth tries to work sorcery on us, saying Tomorrow, Tomorrow, but we outwit that spell by enjoying this now.
Rumi
Image
You had better run from me. My words are fire.
Rumi
Image
Oh, bird of my soul, fly away now, For I possess a hundred fortified towers.
Rumi
Image
Poems reach up like spindrift and the edge of driftwood along the beach, wanting! They derive from a slow and powerful root that we can’t see. Stop the words now. Open the window in the center of your chest, and let the spirits fly in and out.
Rumi
Image
Don't be sad! Because God sends hope in the most desperate moments. Don't forget, the heaviest rain comes out of the darkest clouds.
Rumi
Image
If you do not possess the staff of caution and discrimination, use the eyes of him who sees. If there is no staff of caution and discrimination, do not wander on the road without a guide.
Rumi
Image
Not Christian or Jew or Muslim, not Hindu, Buddhist, Sufi or zen. Not any religion or cultural system. I am not of the East, nor of the West.... My place is placeless, a trace of the traceless.
Rumi
Image
You are the honoured guest, Do not weep like a beggar For pieces of the world.
Rumi
Image
Sometimes you hear a voice through the door calling you... This turning toward what you deeply love saves you.
Rumi
Image
Wash the dust from your SOUl and HEART with wisdom's WATER.
Rumi
Image
Be like a river in generosity and giving help. Be like a sun in tenderness and pity. Be like night when covering other's faults. Be like a dead when furious and angry. Be like earth in modesty and humbleness. Be like a sea in tolerance. Be as you are or as you look like.
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
Because I cannot sleep I make music at night.
Rumi
Image
If Your Eyes Are Opened, You'll See The Things Worth Seeing.
Rumi
Image
Inside you there’s an artist you don’t know about… say yes quickly, if you know, if you’ve known it from before the beginning of the universe.
Rumi
Image
Your happy songs bring to me the scent of Heaven. Please keep singing!
Rumi
Image
Let people catch something from your heart that will cause no discomfort, but help them to sing.
Rumi
