More quotes by Rumi
Work on your stony qualities and become resplendent like the ruby. Practice self-denial and accept difficulty. Always see infinite life in letting the self die. Your stoniness will decrease your ruby nature will grow. The signs of self-existence will leave your body, and ecstasy will take you over.
Rumi
He whose intellect overcomes his lust is higher than the angels he whose lust overcomes his intelligence is less than an animal.
Rumi
Don't run away from grief, o’ soul/ Look for the remedy inside the pain/ because the rose came from the thorn/ and the ruby came from a stone.
Rumi
Forget every touch or sound that did not teach you how to dance
Rumi
Revile those who flatter you.
Rumi
A generous friend gives life for a friend let's rise above this animalistic behavior and be kind to one another
Rumi
Beyond what we wish and what we fear may happen we have another life, as clear and free as a mountain stream.
Rumi
We often need to be refreshed.
Rumi
Be a helpful friend, and you will become a green tree with always new fruit, always deeper journeys into love.
Rumi
Ignorance is God's prison. Knowing is God's palace
Rumi
Every object, every being...is a jar full of delight.
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
Through love scraps of copper are turned to gold.
Rumi
Those doing soul work, who want the searing truth more than solace or applause, know each other right away. Those who want something else turn and take a seat in another room. Soul-makers find each other’s company.
Rumi
Free of who I was, free of presence, free of dangerous fear, hope, free of mountainous wanting.
Rumi
Pure souls, didn’t I tell you not to be seduced by this colorful world for I am the Ultimate Painter.
Rumi
You live in my heart where no one sees you but I do. That vision becomes this art.
Rumi
The world is like a courtroom, with God as our judge. We are called upon to fulfill our covenant with God, who asked, Am I not your Lord? To which we answered, Yea. And since here on earth we are on trial, our every word and action form the witness to and the evidence of that agreement.
Rumi
Today, let us swim wildly, joyously in gratitude.
Rumi
All day I think about it, then at night I say it. Where did I come from, and what am I supposed to be doing? I have no idea. My soul is from elsewhere, I'm sure of that, and I intend to end up there.
Rumi
