More quotes by 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
The Lover is ever drunk with Love. He is mad. She is free. He sings with delight. She dances in ecstasy. Caught by our own thoughts, we worry about everything. But once we get drunk on that Love Whatever will be, will be.
Rumi
On a day when the wind is perfect, the sail just needs to open and the world is full of beauty. Today is such a day.
Rumi
Do you pay regular visits to yourself? Don't argue or answer rationally. Let us die, and dying, reply.
Rumi
You are the fountain of the sun. I'm the shadow of a willow. You fall upon my forehead. I melt. You slip into my heart. It spills open. You surround me with such sweetness. I make it my home.
Rumi
Why are you knocking at every door ? Go, knock at the door of your own heart.
Rumi
Return from existence to nonexistence. You are seeking the Lord and you belong to him. Nonexistence is a place of income flee it not. This existence of more and less is a place of expenditure.
Rumi
I am neither of the East nor of the West, no boundaries exist within my breast.
Rumi
Look at these worlds spinning out of nothingness. That is within your power.
Rumi
Not Christian or Jew or Muslim, not Hindu, Buddhist, Sufi or zen. Not any religion or cultural system. I am not of the East, nor of the West.... My place is placeless, a trace of the traceless.
Rumi
Always check your inner state with the lord of your HEART.
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
Carry the burden smilingly and cheerfully, because patience is the key to victory.
Rumi
Lovers move like lightning and wind. No contest. Theologians mumble, rumble-dumble, necessity and free will, while lover and beloved pull themselves into each other.
Rumi
The intellectual quest is exquisite like pearls and coral, But it is not the same as the spiritual quest. The spiritual quest is on another level altogether, Spiritual wine has a subtler taste. The intellect and the senses investigate cause and effect. The spiritual seeker surrenders to the wonder.
Rumi
Be patient, even if every possibility seems closed.
Rumi
Hungry, you're a dog, angry and bad-natured. having eaten your fill, you become a carcass you lie down like a wall, senseless. At one time a dog, at another time a carcass, how will you run with lions, or follow the saints?
Rumi
Don't be sad! Because God sends hope in the most desperate moments. Don't forget, the heaviest rain comes out of the darkest clouds.
Rumi
Even though you're not equipped, keep searching: equipment isn't necessary on the way to the Lord.
Rumi
The dark thought, the shame, the malice, meet them at the door laughing, and invite them in.
Rumi
