More quotes by Rumi
The spirit is so near that you can't see it! But reach for it... don't be a jar, full of water, whose rim is always dry. Don't be the rider who gallops all night and never sees the horse that is beneath him.
Rumi
Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself.
Rumi
Whatever you lost through fate, be certain that it saved you from pain.
Rumi
Your depression is connected to your insolence and refusal to praise.
Rumi
I am part of the load not rightly balanced . . .
Rumi
Why am I seeking? I am the same as he. His essence speaks through me. I have been looking for myself
Rumi
The only lasting beauty is the beauty of the heart
Rumi
Happy is the moment we sit together, with two forms, with two faces, yet one soul. You and I.
Rumi
Our death is our wedding with eternity.
Rumi
Take sips of this pure wine being poured. Don't mind that you've been given a dirty cup.
Rumi
For hundreds of thousands of years I have been dust-grains floating and flying in the will of the air, often forgetting ever being in that state, but in sleep I migrate back.
Rumi
Ground yourself, strip yourself down, To blind loving Silence
Rumi
He has afflicted you from every direction in order to pull you back to the directionless.
Rumi
You are the honoured guest, Do not weep like a beggar For pieces of the world.
Rumi
Sing to me in the silence of your heart and I will rise up to hear your triumphant song.
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
This poetry. I never know what I'm going to say. I don't plan it. When I'm outside the saying of it, I get very quiet and rarely speak at all.
Rumi
How could you reach the pearl by only looking at the sea? If you seek the pearl, be a diver: the diver needs several qualities: he must trust his rope and his life to the Friend's hand, he must stop breathing, and he must jump.
Rumi
There is a morning inside you waiting to burst open into light.
Rumi
If you desire healing, let yourself fall ill let yourself fall ill.
Rumi
