Quote

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.

if i can only recount the story of my life right out of my body flames will grow
Rumi
Image
Wherever water flows, life flourishes: wherever tears fall, Divine mercy is shown.
Rumi
Image
You try to be faithful And sometimes you're cruel. You are mine. Then, you leave. Without you, I can't cope. And when you take the lead, I become your footstep. Your absence leaves a void. Without you, I can't cope. You have disturbed my sleep, You have wrecked my image. You have set me apart. Without you, I can't cope.
Rumi
Image
Oh you, unceasing sun, to me Your particles communicate The luminous essence of God, Are you our God? I do not know. Intoxicated, I say nought, Bewitched by the magic potion. I cannot differentiate Between my drunk and sober state.
Rumi
Image
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
Image
The lovers of God never run out of patience, for they know that time is needed for the crescent moon to become full.
Rumi
Image
Seek the sound that never ceases. Seek the sun that never sets.
Rumi
Image
Christian, Jew, Muslim, shaman, Zoroastrian, stone, ground, mountain, river, each has a secret way of being with the mystery, unique and not to be judged.
Rumi
Image
This being human is a guest house. Every morning a new arrival. Welcome and entertain them all!
Rumi
Image
Many of the faults you see in others, dear reader, are your own nature reflected in them.
Rumi
Image
Flowers every night Blossom in the sky Peace in the Infinite, At peace am I.
Rumi
Image
Never lose hope when the beloved sends you away. If you're abandoned if you're left hopeless tomorrow for sure you'll be called again. If the door is shut right in your face keep waiting with patience don't leave right away. Seeing your patience your love will soon summon you with grace raise you like a champion.
Rumi
Image
LOVE and LOVER live in Eternity. Other desires are substitutes for that way of being.
Rumi
Image
Don't you know yet? It is your Light that lights the worlds.
Rumi
Image
A heart filled with love is like a phoenix that no cage can imprison.
Rumi
Image
Even when tied in a thousand knots, the string is still but one.
Rumi
Image
My dear heart, never think you are better than others. Listen to their sorrows with compassion. If you want peace, don't harbor bad thoughts, do not gossip and don't teach what you do not know.
Rumi
Image
Every moment is made glorious by the light of love.
Rumi
Image
And if you are a rose, I am rose-shadow.
Rumi
Image
Lovers have heartaches That can't be cured by drugs Or sleep, Or games, But only by seeing their beloved.
Rumi
