Rumi
O Beloved, where is the Beloved?

Rumi
Be melting snow. Wash yourself of yourself.
Rumi

Rumi
You have escaped the cage. Your wings are stretched out. Now fly.
Rumi
Happy, not from anything that happens. Warm, not from fire or a hot bath. Light, I register zero on a scale.
Rumi
Concentrate on the Essence, concentrate on the Light.
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
Your heart knows the way. Run in that direction.
Rumi
I used to read the myths of love Now I have become the mythical lover
Rumi
The waterwheel accepts water and turns and gives it away, weeping.
Rumi
And watch two men washing clothes, one makes dry clothes wet. The other makes wet clothes dry. they seem to be thwarting each other, but their work is a perfect harmony. Every holy person seems to have a different doctrine and practice, but there's really only one work.
Rumi
How can I know anything about the past or the future, when the light of the Beloved shines only Now.
Rumi
Our death is our wedding with eternity.
Rumi
