More quotes by Rumi
Longing is the core of mystery. Longing itself brings the cure. The only rule is, suffer the pain. Your desires must be disciplined And what you want to happen in time, sacrificed.
Rumi
Whatever you are looking for can only be found inside of you.
Rumi
If reason dominates in man, he rises higher than angels. If lust overpowers man, he descends lower than the beast.
Rumi
Break your pitcher against a rock. We don't need any longer to haul pieces of the ocean around.
Rumi
Raise your words, not your voice.
Rumi
Through love scraps of copper are turned to gold.
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
Carry your baggage towards silence , when you seek the signs of the way.
Rumi
I belong to no religion. My religion is love. Every heart is my temple.
Rumi
Always check your inner state with the lord of your HEART.
Rumi
It may be that the satisfaction I need depends on my going away, so that when I've gone and come back, I'll find it at home.
Rumi
Give yourself completely to the one you call God. If you are not doing it you are wasting your time here.
Rumi
Passion makes the old medicine new: Passion lops off the bough of weariness. Passion is the elixir that renews: how can there be weariness when passion is present? Oh, don't sigh heavily from fatigue: seek passion, seek passion, seek passion!
Rumi
People who repress desires often turn, suddenly, into hypocrites.
Rumi
In every religion there is love, yet love has no religion.
Rumi
But listen to me. For one moment quit being sad. Hear blessings dropping their blossoms around you.
Rumi
Beauty surrounds us.
Rumi
The only lasting beauty is the beauty of the heart
Rumi
If you are seeking, seek us with joy For we live in the kingdom of joy. Do not give your heart to anything else But to the love of those who are clear joy, Do not stray into the neighborhood of despair. For there are hopes: they are real, they exist – Do not go in the direction of darkness – I tell you: suns exist.
Rumi
God picks up the reed-flute world and blows. Each note is a need coming through one of us, a passion, a longing pain. Remember the lips where the wind-breath originated, and let your note be clear. Don't try to end it. Be your note.
Rumi
