More quotes by Rumi
Try something different. Surrender.
Rumi
When one sense perceives the hidden, the invisible world becomes apparent to the whole.
Rumi
Everything that you want, you are already that.
Rumi
A soul which is not clothed with the inner garment of Love should be ashamed of its existence.
Rumi
Know the true definition of yourself. That is essential. Then, when you know your own definition, flee from it.
Rumi
On this path let the heart be your guide.
Rumi
If my head holds one thought wise and clear, it's You. Poor as I am, what I hold dear is You. No matter how I see myself, I'm nothing ... Anything I am entirely is You!
Rumi
Joy lives concealed in grief.
Rumi
Last night my teacher taught me the lesson of Poverty: Having nothing and wanting nothing.
Rumi
Whoever has Heart's doors wide open, could see the Sun itself in every atom.
Rumi
This poetry. I never know what I'm going to say.
Rumi
The Prophets accept all agony and trust it For the water has never feared the fire.
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
Don't be the rider who gallops all nightand never sees the horse that is beneath him
Rumi
Cease looking for flowers! There blooms a garden in your own home. While you look for trinkets The treasure house awaits you in your own being.
Rumi
Every moment is made glorious by the light of love.
Rumi
Poems reach up like spindrift and the edge of driftwood along the beach, wanting! They derive from a slow and powerful root that we can’t see. Stop the words now. Open the window in the center of your chest, and let the spirits fly in and out.
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
Be a lamp, or a lifeboat, or a ladder.
Rumi
While the mind sees only boundaries, Love knows the secret way there.
Rumi
