More quotes by Rumi
In real existence there is only unity.
Rumi
Whenever we manage to love without expectations, calculations, negotiations, we are indeed in heaven.
Rumi
Listen to the unstruck sounds, and what sifts through that music.
Rumi
This is love: to fly toward a secret sky, to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment. First to let go of life. Finally, to take a step without feet.
Rumi
Close your eyes, fall in Love, stay there.
Rumi
Nightingales are put in cages because their songs give pleasure. Whoever heard of keeping a crow?
Rumi
Go my friend bestow your love even on your enemies if you touch their hearts what do you think will happen.
Rumi
When you have indulged a lust, your wing drops off you become lame, abandoned by a fantasy. …People fancy they are enjoying themselves, but they are really tearing out their wings for the sake of an illusion.
Rumi
A lover in life will be a lover in death, a lover in the tomb, a lover in paradise, a lover on the day of resurrection.
Rumi
The same wind that uproots trees makes the grass shine. The lordly wind loves the weakness and the lowness of grasses. Never brag of being strong. The axe doesn't worry how thick the branches are. It cuts them to pieces. But not the leaves. It leaves the leaves alone.
Rumi
When soul rises Into lips You feel the kiss You have wanted
Rumi
If you knew the secret of life, you too would choose no other companion but love.
Rumi
I belong to the beloved. Have seen the two worlds as one and that one call to and know. ...First, Last, Outer, Inner, only that breath breathing. HUMAN BEING.
Rumi
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
He has afflicted you from every direction in order to pull you back to the directionless.
Rumi
The world is a mirror, an imaging of Love's perfection.
Rumi
Sometimes you hear a voice through the door calling you... This turning toward what you deeply love saves you.
Rumi
Discard yourself and thereby regain yourself. Spread the trap of humility and ensnare love.
Rumi
When someone beats a rug, the blows are not against the rug, but against the dust in it.
Rumi
When you reach the bottom of the well of your own nature, then you will know that the vileness was from yourself.
Rumi
