Quote

I want a trouble-maker for a lover, Blood spiller, blood drinker, a heart of flame, Who quarrels with the sky and fights with fate, Who burns like fire on the rushing sea.

I found the Divine within my Heart.
Rumi
Image
A new moon teaches gradualness and deliberation and how one gives birth to oneself slowly. Patience with small details makes perfect a large work, like the universe. What nine months of attention does for an embryo forty early mornings will do for your gradually growing wholeness
Rumi
Image
Give your weakness to one who helps.
Rumi

In every religion there is love, yet love has no religion.
Rumi

The quieter we become, the more we can hear.
Rumi
Image
Every need brings in what's needed. Pain bears its cure like a child.
Rumi
Image
Not only the thirsty seek the water, the water as well seeks the thirsty.

The desire to know your own soul will end all other desires.
Rumi
Image
Brother, stand the pain. Escape the poison of your impulses. The sky will bow to your beauty, if you do. Learn to light the candle. Rise with the sun. Turn away from the cave of your sleeping. That way a thorn expands to a rose.
Rumi
Image
There cannot be self-restraint in the absence of desire: when there is no adversary, what avails thy courage? Hark, do not castrate thyself, do not become a monk: chastity depends on the existence of lust.
Rumi
Image
I have no fear to burn my mouth and throat I’m ready to drink every flame and more.
Rumi
Image
Keep silence, be mute. If you have not yet become the tongue of GOD, be an ear!
Rumi
Image
Be melting snow. Wash yourself of yourself.
Rumi
Image
When love is not accepted move on when love is not appreciated walk away hopefully time will teach what real, true love is.
Rumi
Image
To Love is to be God. Never will a Lover's chest feel any sorrow. Never will a Lover's robe be touched by mortals. Never will a Lover's body be found buried in the earth. To Love is to be God.
Rumi
Image
The day you were born, a ladder was set up to help you escape this world.
Rumi
Image
The gifts of lovers to one another are, in respect to love, nothing but forms yet, they testify to invisible love.
Rumi
Image
What I had thought of before as God, I met today in a human being.
Rumi
Image
I am so happy, I cannot be contained in the world But like a spirit, I am hidden from the eyes of the world.
Rumi
