More quotes by Rumi
All your anxiety is because of your desire for harmony. Seek disharmony, then you will gain peace.
Rumi
Someday our souls will be one and our union will be forever. I know that everything I give you comes back to me. So I give you my life , hoping that you will come back to me.
Rumi
Know that the outward form passes away, but the world of reality remains forever. How long will you play at loving the shape of the jug? Leave the jug go, seek the water!
Rumi
Just as the heart becomes carefree in a place of green, growing plants, goodwill and kindness are born when our souls enter happiness.
Rumi
Start a huge, foolish project, like Noah…it makes absolutely no difference what people think of you.
Rumi
I look into your eyes & see the universe not yet born.
Rumi
We are pain and what cures pain, both. We are the sweet cold water and the jar that pours. I want to hold you close like a lute, so that we can cry out with loving. Would you rather throw stones at a mirror? I am your mirror and here are the stones.
Rumi
I am part of the load not rightly balanced . . .
Rumi
If you # love love, look for yourself.
Rumi
In truth everything and everyone Is a shadow of the Beloved, And our seeking is His seeking And our words are His words... We search for Him here and there, while looking right at Him. Sitting by His side, we ask: 'O Beloved, where is the Beloved?'
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
To love is human. To feel pain is human. Yet to still love despite the pain is pure angel.
Rumi
Beauty is the garden scent of roses, murmuring water flowing gently...Can words describe the indescribable?
Rumi
Listen. Make a way for yourself inside yourself. Stop looking in the other way of looking.
Rumi
Regard a king as someone unconcerned with kingship.
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
There is only one search: wandering... no dogma and no heresy.
Rumi
If words come out of the heart, they will enter the heart.
Rumi
Love is a madman, working his wild schemes, tearing off his clothes, running through the mountains...
Rumi
On the way there is no harder pass than this: fortunate is he who does not carry envy as a companion.
Rumi
