More quotes by Rumi
There is a life in you, search that life, search the secret jewel in the mountain of your body.
Rumi
Poems reach up like spindrift and the edge of driftwood along the beach, wanting! They derive from a slow and powerful root that we can’t see. Stop the words now. Open the window in the center of your chest, and let the spirits fly in and out.
Rumi
It was our Creator who led us through the stages of evolution, from the animal state to the human. His purpose was to make us intelligent and aware, so that we might know Him.
Rumi
A lover is always accused of something. But when he finds his love, whatever was lost in the looking comes back completely changed.
Rumi
What strange beings we are! That sitting in hell at the bottom of the dark, we're afraid of our own immortality.
Rumi
Wherever you are, and whatever you do, be in love.
Rumi
With each passing moment, a Soul sets off to find Itself.
Rumi
Darkness is your candle. Your boundaries are your quest.
Rumi
If your heart isn't yet illumined Be awake always, be a seeker of the heart, Be at war continually with your carnal soul. But if your heart is already awakened, Sleep peacefully, sleep in the arms of Love
Rumi
All religions, all this singing, one song. The differences are just illusion and vanity. The sun’s light looks a little different on this wall than it does on that wall, and a lot different on this other one, but it’s still one light.
Rumi
Yesterday is gone and took away its tale. Today we must live a fresh story again.
Rumi
Since you are not a prophet, follow the way taught by prophets. Since you are not a king, be a loyal subject to The King. Since you are not a captain, do not take the helm of the ship. Since you do not possess every skill, have partners in your business. Be as pliant as dough in the hands of others, that you may rise well.
Rumi
If you knew the secret of life, you too would choose no other companion but love.
Rumi
Reason is like an officer when the king appears. The officer then loses his power and hides himself. Reason is the shadow cast by God God is the sun.
Rumi
Don't see yourself as a body of clay See yourself as a mirror reflecting the divine beauty.
Rumi
Why should I be unhappy? Each parcel of my being is in full bloom.
Rumi
All that you think is rain is not. Behind the veil angels sometimes weep.
Rumi
We are all the same ... all the same... longing to find our way back ... back to the One ... back to the Only One!
Rumi
The miracle of Jesus is himself, not what he said or did.
Rumi
Join the community of saints and know the delight of your own Soul. Enter the ruins of your Heart and Learn the Meaning of Humility.
Rumi
