More quotes by Rumi
There is some kiss we want with your whole lives, the touch of spirit on the body. Seawater begs the pearl to break its shell. And the lily, how passionately it needs some wild darling.
Rumi
Those doing soul work, who want the searing truth more than solace or applause, know each other right away. Those who want something else turn and take a seat in another room. Soul-makers find each other’s company.
Rumi
If your knowledge of fire has been turned to certainty by words alone, then seek to be cooked by the fire itself. Don't abide in borrowed certainty. There is no real certainty until you burn if you wish for this, sit down in the fire.
Rumi
Sometimes you hear a voice through the door calling you... This turning toward what you deeply love saves you.
Rumi
Hear from the heart wordless mysteries.
Rumi
Raise your words, not your voice.
Rumi
The ocean of the body crashes against the ocean of the heart. Between them is a barrier they cannot cross.
Rumi
Though Destiny a hundred times waylays you,in the end it pitches a tent for you in Heaven. It is God's loving kindness to terrify you,in order to lead you to His Kingdom of safety.
Rumi
When love is not accepted move on when love is not appreciated walk away hopefully time will teach what real, true love is.
Rumi
Look at these worlds spinning out of nothingness. That is within your power.
Rumi
If you wish to be a mine of jewels, open the deep ocean within your heart.
Rumi
Just as the heart becomes carefree in a place of green, growing plants, goodwill and kindness are born when our souls enter happiness.
Rumi
Reason is powerless in the expression of Love. Love alone is capable of revealing the truth of Love and being a Lover. The way of our prophets is the way of Truth. If you want to live, die in Love die in Love if you want to remain alive.
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
What you are seeking is also seeking you.
Rumi
Travel brings power and love back into your life.
Rumi
Those who practice Love have neither Religion or Status.
Rumi
Tie two birds together. They will not be able to fly, even though they now have four wings.
Rumi
Your worst enemy is hiding within yourself, and that enemy is your nafs or false ego.
Rumi
Two there are who are never satisfied -- the lover of the world and the lover of knowledge.
Rumi
