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.

More quotes by Rumi
People want you to be happy. Don't keep serving them your pain! If you could untie your wings and free your soul of jealousy, you and everyone around you would fly up like doves.
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
What a piece of bread looks like depends on whether you are hungry or not.
Rumi
Love itself describes its own perfection. Be speechless and listen.
Rumi
Seek passion, seek passion, seek passion!
Rumi
When I run after what I think I want, my days are a furnace of stress and anxiety if I sit in my own place of patience, what I need flows to me, and without pain. From this I understand that what I want also wants me, is looking for me and attracting me. There is a great secret here for anyone who can grasp it.
Rumi
Life is balance of holding on and letting go.
Rumi
Don't look for me in a human shape, I am inside your looking.
Rumi
Let the beauty we love do what we do.
Rumi
I want to be where your bare foot walks, because maybe before you step, you'll look at the ground. I want that blessing
Rumi
By God, when you see your beauty you will be the idol of yourself.
Rumi
There cannot be self-restraint in the absence of desire: when there is no adversary, what avails thy courage? Hark, do not castrate thyself, do not become a monk: chastity depends on the existence of lust.
Rumi
Longing is the core of mystery. Longing itself brings the cure. The only rule is, suffer the pain. Your desires must be disciplined And what you want to happen in time, sacrificed.
Rumi
Why should I be weary when every cell of my body is bursting with life?
Rumi
Your name is upon my tongue your image is in my sight your memory is in my heart where can I send these words that I write ?
Rumi
Revile those who flatter you.
Rumi
On this path let the heart be your guide.
Rumi
There's a path from your HEART to mine.
Rumi
Be grateful for your life, every detail of it, and your face will come to shine like a sun, and everyone who sees it will be made glad and peaceful.
Rumi
Awake asleep ought to be with us - So he may see dreams in wakefulness.
Rumi
