O my choice beauty You've gone But your love remains in my heart Your image in my eye O guide on my winding road I keep turning round and round in the hopes of Finding you
Rumi
Whatever posessions and objects of its desires the lower self may obtain, it hangs on to them, refusing to let them go out of greed for more, or out of fear of poverty and need.
Rumi
Always check your inner state with the lord of your HEART.
Rumi
Love is the Water of Life Everything other than love for the most beautiful God is agony of the spirit, though it be sugar- eating. What is agony of the spirit? To advance toward death without seizing hold of the Water of Life.
Rumi
If you # love love, look for yourself.
Rumi
All that you think is rain is not. Behind the veil angels sometimes weep.
Rumi
The gifts of lovers to one another are, in respect to love, nothing but forms yet, they testify to invisible love.

Your task? To work with all the passion of your being to acquire an inner light.
Rumi
There is a window between heart and heart: They are never separate like two bodies. Two lamps may not be united in their form - But their light merges into each other.
Rumi
I came to this earth so that I could find my way back to my Beloved.
Rumi
There are many winds full of anger, and lust and greed. They move the rubbish around, but the solid mountain of our true nature stays where it's always been.
Rumi
Since in order to speak, one must first listen, learn to speak by listening.
Rumi
Doubt is a precipice on the way to God. Blessed is he who is freed from its bonds. He who fares without any doubt, adhere to his footprints if you do not know the way. Cleave to the footprints of the deer and advance with care that you may reach the musk-gland. By means of such trekking, even if you walk on fire, you will reach the luminous peak.
Rumi
Do not worry if all the candles in the world flicker and die. We have the spark that starts the fire.
Rumi
Let a thousand wrangling desires become one Love.
Rumi
Give yourself completely to the one you call God. If you are not doing it you are wasting your time here.
Rumi
Death has nothing to do with going away.The sun sets The moon sets But they are not gone.
Rumi
