More quotes by Rumi
Find the sweetness in your own heart, then you may find the sweetness in every heart.
Rumi
Life is balance of holding on and letting go.
Rumi
When the ocean surges, don't let me just hear it. Let it splash inside my chest!
Rumi
You have been a prisoner of a little pond I am the ocean and its turbulent flood Come merge with me leave this world of ignorance
Rumi
When we practice loving kindness and compassion we are the first ones to profit.
Rumi
Any one in love will have no religion.
Rumi
Don't stray from your Heart's intent.
Rumi
You are as you are, an indescribable message on the air.
Rumi
Whoever travels without a guide, needs two hundred years for a two-day journey.
Rumi
Let people catch something from your heart that will cause no discomfort, but help them to sing.
Rumi
Last night you left me and slept your own deep sleep. Tonight you turn and turn. I say, 'You and I will be together till the Universe dissolves.' You mumble back things you thought of when you were drunk.
Rumi
The intellectual quest is exquisite like pearls and coral, But it is not the same as the spiritual quest. The spiritual quest is on another level altogether, Spiritual wine has a subtler taste. The intellect and the senses investigate cause and effect. The spiritual seeker surrenders to the wonder.
Rumi
Do you hear what the music is saying? 'Come follow me and you will find the way. Your mistakes can also lead you to the truth. When you ask, the answer will be given.'
Rumi
You run back and forth listening for unusual events, peering into the faces of travelers. Why are you looking at me like a madman? I have lost a friend. Please forgive me.
Rumi
Every moment I shape my destiny with a chisel - I am the carpenter of my own soul.
Rumi
This is not a day for asking questions, not a day on any calendar. This day is conscious of itself. This day is a lover, bread, and gentleness, more manifest than saying can say.
Rumi
Inside you there’s an artist you don’t know about… say yes quickly, if you know, if you’ve known it from before the beginning of the universe.
Rumi
I want that love that moved the mountains. I want that love that split the ocean. I want that love that made the winds tremble. I want that love that roared like thunder. I want that love that will raise the dead. I want that love that lifts us to ecstasy. I want that love that is the silence of eternity.
Rumi
Everyone is overridden by thoughts that's why they have so much heartache and sorrow.
Rumi
Dance, and make joyous the love around you. Dance, and your veils which hide the Light shall swirl in a heap at your feet.
Rumi
