More quotes by Rumi
What can I do my friends, if I do not know? I am neither Christian nor Jew, nor Muslim nor Hindu. What can I do? What can I do? Not of the East, nor of the West, Nor of the land, nor of the sea, Not of nature's essence, nor of circling heavens. What could I be?
Rumi
Pull the thorn of existence out of the heart! Fast! For when you do, you will see thousands of rose gardens in yourself.
Rumi
We are the mirror as well as the face in it. We are tasting the taste this minute of eternity. We are pain and what cures pain both. We are the sweet cold water and the jar that pours.
Rumi
Be suspicious of what you want.
Rumi
I am like the heaven, like the moon, like a candle by your glow I am all reason, all love, all soul, by your soul.
Rumi
Don't try to steer the boat. Don't open shop for yourself. Listen. Keep silent. You are not God's mouthpiece. Try to be an ear, And if you do speak, ask for explanations.
Rumi
To me nothing in the world is as precious as a genuine smile, especially from a child.
Rumi
Patience is the key to joy.
Rumi
Intellect in its effort to explain Love got stuck in the mud like an ass. Love alone could explain love and loving.
Rumi
Behead yourself!... Dissolve your whole body into Vision: become seeing, seeing, seeing!
Rumi
Love is the vital core of the soul. And of all you see, only love is infinite.
Rumi
Silence is an ocean. Speech is a river. When the ocean is searching for you, don't walk into the language-river. Listen to the ocean, and bring your talky business to an end. Traditional words are just babbling in that presence, and babbling is a substitute for sight.
Rumi
Counterfeiters exist because there is such a thing as real gold.
Rumi
This is love: to fly toward a secret sky, to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment. First to let go of life. Finally, to take a step without feet.
Rumi
A divine dance appears in the soul and the body at the time of peace and union.Anyone can learn the dance, just listen to the music.
Rumi
In real existence there is only unity.
Rumi
Lovers find secret places inside this violent world where they make transactions with beauty.
Rumi
You left ground and sky weeping, mind and soul full of grief. No one can take your place in existence or in absence.
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
For hundreds of thousands of years I have been dust-grains floating and flying in the will of the air, often forgetting ever being in that state, but in sleep I migrate back.
Rumi
