More quotes by Rumi
The world is like a courtroom, with God as our judge. We are called upon to fulfill our covenant with God, who asked, Am I not your Lord? To which we answered, Yea. And since here on earth we are on trial, our every word and action form the witness to and the evidence of that agreement.
Rumi
Let silence take you to the core of life.
Rumi
You left ground and sky weeping, mind and soul full of grief. No one can take your place in existence, or in absence. Both mourn, the angels, the prophets, and this sadness I feel has taken from me the taste of language, so that I cannot say the flavor of my being apart.
Rumi
In Winter the bare boughs that seem to sleep Work covertly, preparing for their Spring.
Rumi
I’ve been looking for a long, long time, for this thing called love, I’ve ridden comets across the sky, and I’ve looked below and above. Then one day I looked inside myself, and this is what I found, A golden sun residing there, beaming forth God’s light and sound.
Rumi
I look into your eyes & see the universe not yet born.
Rumi
Stop the words now. Open the window in the center of your chest, and let the spirits fly in and out.
Rumi
Behead yourself!... Dissolve your whole body into Vision: become seeing, seeing, seeing!
Rumi
Gratitude is the wine for the soul. Go on. Get drunk.
Rumi
There is none dwelling in the house but God. When a man is awakened he melts and perishes.
Rumi
Someone who does not run toward the allure of love walks a road where nothing lives.
Rumi
Your kindness cannot be said. You open doors in the sky. You ease the heart and make God's qualities visible.
Rumi
You are the honoured guest, Do not weep like a beggar For pieces of the world.
Rumi
Conventional opinion is the ruin of our souls.
Rumi
Turning toward what you deeply love saves you
Rumi
Love asks us to enjoy our life For nothing good can come of death. Who is alive? I ask. Those who are born of love. Seek us in love itself, Seek love in us ourselves. Sometimes I venerate love, Sometimes it venerates me.
Rumi
Love calls - everywhere and always. We're sky bound. Are you coming?
Rumi
Dear soul, don't set a high value on someone before they deserve it You either lose them or ruin yourself...!
Rumi
Give your life to the one who already owns your breath and your moments.
Rumi
People of the world don't look at themselves, and so they blame one another.
Rumi
