More quotes by Rumi
There is no salvation for the soul but to fall in love.
Rumi
Love is the water of life, jump into this water.
Rumi
Study me as much as you like, you will not know me, for I differ in a hundred ways from what you see me to be. Put yourself behind my eyes and see me as I see myself, for I have chosen to dwell in a place you cannot see.
Rumi
And so it is, that both the Devil and the angelic Spirit present us with objects of desire to awaken our power of choice.
Rumi
When you're traveling, ask the traveler for advice / not someone whose lameness keeps him in one place.
Rumi
Everything in the universe is within you. Ask all from yourself.
Rumi
You believe God is not there, but He is, Hidden in the secret of the divine mystery
Rumi
I am yours. Don't give myself back to me.
Rumi
Work on your stony qualities and become resplendent like the ruby. Practice self-denial and accept difficulty. Always see infinite life in letting the self die. Your stoniness will decrease your ruby nature will grow. The signs of self-existence will leave your body, and ecstasy will take you over.
Rumi
What you have despised in yourself as a thorn opens into a rose.
Rumi
Oh, bird of my soul, fly away now, For I possess a hundred fortified towers.
Rumi
O Beloved, where is the Beloved?
Rumi
I have no companion but Love, no beginning, no end, no dawn. The Soul calls from within me: 'You, ignorant of the way of Love, set Me free.'
Rumi
Keep silence, be mute. If you have not yet become the tongue of GOD, be an ear!
Rumi
Know the true definition of yourself. That is essential. Then, when you know your own definition, flee from it.
Rumi
I am so close, I may look distant.
Rumi
Live at the empty heart of paradox. I'll dance with you there, cheek to cheek.
Rumi
When I am silent, I have thunder hidden inside.
Rumi
How should Spring bring forth a garden on hard stone? Become earth, that you may grow flowers of many colors. For you have been heart-breaking rock. Once, for the sake of experiment, be earth!
Rumi
I am your moon and your moonlight too I am your flower garden and your water too I have come all this way, eager for you Without shoes or shawl I want you to laugh To kill all your worries To love you To nourish you.
Rumi
