More quotes by Rumi
Criticism polishes my mirror.
Rumi
Explanation by the tongue makes most things clear, But love unexplained is clearer.
Rumi
Daylight, full of small dancing particles. Can you see them when I whisper in your ear?
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
What a relief to be empty! Then God can live your life.
Rumi
From the urgent way lovers want each other to the seeker's search for truth, all moving is from the mover. Every Pull Draws Us To The Ocean.
Rumi
Allah made the illusion look real and the real an illusion. He concealed the sea and made the foam visible, the wind invisible, and the dust manifest. you see the dust whirling, but how can the dust rise by itself? you see the foam, but not the ocean. invoke Him with deeds, not words for deeds are real and will save you in the infinite-life.
Rumi
There is no way into Presence except through a love exchange.
Rumi
The world's flattery and hypocrisy is a sweet morsel: eat less of it, for it is full of fire. Its fire is hidden while its taste is manifest, but its smoke becomes visible in the end.
Rumi
I have no name for what circles so perfectly.
Rumi
You’re a song, a wished-for song.
Rumi
What you have despised in yourself as a thorn opens into a rose.
Rumi
Love's nationality is separate from all other religions, The lover's religion and nationality is the Beloved (God). The lover's cause is separate from all other causes Love is the astrolabe of God's mysteries.
Rumi
You wander from room to room Hunting for the diamond necklace That is already around your neck!
Rumi
Look at Love with the eyes of your Heart.
Rumi
Be silent, Only the Hand of God Can remove The burdens of your heart.
Rumi
Darkness is your candle. Your boundaries are your quest.
Rumi
In our hearts there burns a fire... That burns all veils to their root and foundation When those veils have been burned away Then the heart will understand completely. Ancient love will unfold ever-fresh forms In the heart of the Spirit, In the core of the heart.
Rumi
The breath of the flute player: does it belong to the flute?
Rumi
Whatever lifts the corners of your mouth, trust that
