More quotes by Rumi
Be a spot of ground where nothing is growing, where something might be planted, a seed, possibly, from the Absolute.
Rumi
Everyone sees the unseen in proportion to the clarity of his heart, and that depends upon how much he has polished it. Whoever has polished it more sees more - more unseen forms become manifest to him.
Rumi
Nightingales are put in cages because their songs give pleasure. Whoever heard of keeping a crow?
Rumi
Be like the sun for grace and mercy. Be like the night to cover others' faults. Be like running water for generosity. Be like death for rage and anger. Be like the Earth for modesty. Appear as you are. Be as you appear.
Rumi
Goodbyes are only for those who love with their eyes. Because for those who love with heart and soul there is no such thing as separation.
Rumi
O Seeker, pain and suffering make one aware of God.
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
There is a field beyond all notions of right and wrong. Come, meet me there.
Rumi
I’ve been looking for a long, long time, for this thing called love, I’ve ridden comets across the sky, and I’ve looked below and above. Then one day I looked inside myself, and this is what I found, A golden sun residing there, beaming forth God’s light and sound.
Rumi
Love Came.... and became like blood in my body. It rushed through my veins and encircled my Heart. Everywhere I looked, I saw One Thing.... Love's Name written on my limbs, on my left palm, on my forehead, on the back of my neck, on my right big toe... Oh, my friend, all that you see of me is just a shell, and the rest belongs to Love.
Rumi
The satiated person and the hungry one do not see the same thing when they look upon a loaf of bread.
Rumi
Everyone is overridden by thoughts that's why they have so much heartache and sorrow.
Rumi
This is enough was always true. We just haven't seen it.
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
Don't be fooled by my beauty - the light of my face comes from the candle of my spirit.
Rumi
Your depression is connected to your insolence and refusal to praise.
Rumi
Feeling lonely and ignoble indicates that you haven't been patient.
Rumi
There are many languages in the world in meaning all are the same. If you break the cups, water will be unified and will flow together.
Rumi
Listen . Keep silent . You are not gods mouthpiece. Try to be an ear.
Rumi
Your breath touched my soul and I saw beyond all limits.
Rumi
