More quotes by Rumi
I learned that every mortal will taste death. But only some will taste life.
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
Stay in the spiritual fire. Let it cook you.
Rumi
When one sense perceives the hidden, the invisible world becomes apparent to the whole.
Rumi
There is a voice that doesn’t use words. Listen.
Rumi
I used to read the myths of love Now I have become the mythical lover
Rumi
Look at these worlds spinning out of nothingness. That is within your power.
Rumi
I drank that Wine of which the Soul is its vessel. Its ecstasy has stolen my intellect away. A Light came and kindled a Flame in the depth of my Soul. A Light so radiant that the sun orbits around it like a butterfly.
Rumi
Wash the dust from your SOUl and HEART with wisdom's WATER.
Rumi
...Blessed is anyone who knows who he or she really is and builds a place to live there.
Rumi
The breath of the flute player: does it belong to the flute?
Rumi
When you find yourself with the Beloved, embracing for one breath, in that moment you will find your true destiny. Alas, don't spoil this precious moment. Moments like this are very, very rare.
Rumi
If there were no way into God, I would not have lain in the grave of this body so long.
Rumi
Not the ones speaking the same language, but the ones sharing the same feeling understand each other.
Rumi
I have put duality away. I have seen the two worlds are one.
Rumi
I was once like you, enlightened and rational, I too scoffed at lovers, Now I am drunk, crazed, thin with misery. No one is safe! Watch out.
Rumi
Yesterday is gone and took away its tale. Today we must live a fresh story again.
Rumi
If reason dominates in man, he rises higher than angels. If lust overpowers man, he descends lower than the beast.
Rumi
I've said before that every craftsman searches for what's not there to practice his craft.
Rumi
Never lose hope when the beloved sends you away. If you're abandoned if you're left hopeless tomorrow for sure you'll be called again. If the door is shut right in your face keep waiting with patience don't leave right away. Seeing your patience your love will soon summon you with grace raise you like a champion.
Rumi
