More quotes by Rumi
The pure heart is a spotless mirror in which images of infinite beauty are reflected.
Rumi
Beauty and Love are as body and soul. Beauty is the mine, LOVE is the diamond. They have together since the beginning of time- Side by side, step by step.
Rumi
From myself I am copper, through you, friend, I am gold. From myself I’m a stone, but through you, I am a gem!
Rumi
There is no way into Presence except through a love exchange.
Rumi
There is a field beyond all notions of right and wrong. Come, meet me there.
Rumi
Love isn't the work of the tender and the gentle Love is the work of wrestlers. The one who becomes a servant of lovers is really a fortunate sovereign. Don't ask anyone about Love ask Love about Love. Love is a cloud that scatters pearls.
Rumi
As for us, He has appointed the job of permanent unemployment. If he wanted us to work, after all, He would not have created this wine. With a skinfull of this, Sir, would you rush out to commit economics?
Rumi
The desire to know your own soul will end all other desires.
Rumi
Stay with friends who support you in these. Talk with them about sacred texts, and how you are doing, and how they are doing, and keep your practices together.
Rumi
Knock, And He'll open the door Vanish, And He'll make you shine like the sun Fall, And He'll raise you to the heavens Become nothing, And He'll turn you into everything.
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
This poetry. I never know what I'm going to say.
Rumi
Darkness is your candle. Your boundaries are your quest.
Rumi
...one cannot lodge in if.
Rumi
It may be that the satisfaction I need depends on my going away, so that when I've gone and come back, I'll find it at home.
Rumi
I am a drunkard from another kind of tavern. I dance to a silent tune. I am the symphony of stars.
Rumi
When I am silent, I have thunder hidden inside.
Rumi
I saw grief drinking a cup of sorrow and called out, 'It tastes sweet, does it not?' 'You've caught me,' grief answered, 'and you've ruined my business. How can I sell sorrow, when you know it's a blessing?
Rumi
When water gets caught in habitual whirlpools, dig a way out through the bottom of the ocean.
Rumi
I am yours. Don't give myself back to me.
Rumi
