More quotes by Rumi
If you want what visible reality can give, you are an employee. If you want the unseen world you are not living with your truth. Both wishes are foolish, but you'll be forgiven for forgetting that what you really want is loves confusing joy.
Rumi
Break your pitcher against a rock. We don't need any longer to haul pieces of the ocean around.
Rumi
Whenever we manage to love without expectations, calculations, negotiations, we are indeed in heaven.
Rumi
I died as a mineral and became a plant, I died as a plant and rose to animal, I died as an animal and I was Man. Why should I fear? When was I less by dying?
Rumi
Wherever you are, and whatever you do, be in love.
Rumi
You've been walking the ocean's edge, holding up your robes to keep them dry. You must dive naked under, and deeper under, a thousand times deeper!
Rumi
I have been a seeker and I still am, but I stopped asking the books and the stars. I started listening to the teaching of my Soul.
Rumi
My religion is to be alive from LOVE.
Rumi
What is the mirror of Being? Non-being. Bring non-being as your gift, if you are not a fool.
Rumi
When The Goodwill Of Hearts Is With You, Fountains Of Wisdom Will Begin To Flow From Within Your Own Being.
Rumi
If Light Is In Your Heart You Will Find Your Way Home.
Rumi
Someone who does not run toward the allure of love walks a road where nothing lives. But this dove here senses the love hawk floating above, and waits, and will not be driven or scared to safety.
Rumi
I lost my hat while gazing at the moon, and then I lost my mind.
Rumi
We rarely hear the inward music, but we're all dancing to it nevertheless.
Rumi
There comes a holy and transparent time when every touch of beauty opens the heart to tears. This is the time the Beloved of heaven is brought tenderly on earth. This is the time of the opening of the ROSE.
Rumi
There is a life in you, search that life, search the secret jewel in the mountain of your body.
Rumi
Those with open hearts always have open hands.
Rumi
How can I know anything about the past or the future, when the light of the Beloved shines only Now.
Rumi
Set your sights on a place higher than your eyes can see.
Rumi
Love is such a vast sea, it has neither edges nor ends nor corners.
Rumi
