Image
Be occupied, then, with what you really value and let the thief take something else.
Rumi
Image
Let the Beloved be a hat pulled down firmly on my head.
Rumi
Image
Your defects are the ways that glory gets manifested ... That's where the Light enters you.
Rumi
Image
Nothing can help me but that beauty. There was a dawn I remember when my soul heard something from your soul. I drank water from your spring and felt the current take me.
Rumi
Image
What can I do my friends, if I do not know? I am neither Christian nor Jew, nor Muslim nor Hindu. What can I do? What can I do? Not of the East, nor of the West, Nor of the land, nor of the sea, Not of nature's essence, nor of circling heavens. What could I be?
Rumi
Image
Your hand opens and closes, opens and closes. If it were always a fist or always stretched open, you would be paralysed. Your deepest presence is in every small contracting and expanding, the two as beautifully balanced and coordinated as birds' wings.
Rumi
Image
We are even higher than the heavens, we are greater than angels Why should we not transcend both? Our lodging-place is Majesty.
Rumi
Image
All that you think is rain is not. Behind the veil angels sometimes weep.
Rumi
Image
This is a subtle truth. Whatever you love, you are.
Rumi
Image
You believe God is not there, but He is, Hidden in the secret of the divine mystery
Rumi
Image
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
Image
Silence is the language of God, all else is poor translation.
Rumi
Image
This is a gathering of Lovers. In this gathering there is no high, no low, no smart, no ignorant, no special assembly, no grand discourse, no proper schooling required. There is no master, no disciple. This gathering is more like a drunken party, full of tricksters, fools, mad men and mad women. This is a gathering of Lovers.
Rumi
Image
Everyone sees the unseen in proportion to the clarity of his hear.
Rumi
Image
All loves are a bridge to Divine love. Yet, those who have not had a taste of it do not know!
Rumi
Image
Death has nothing to do with going away.The sun sets The moon sets But they are not gone.
Rumi
Image
You are quaffing drink from a hundred fountains: whenever any of these hundred yields less, your pleasure is diminished. But when the sublime fountain gushes from within you, no longer need you steal from the other fountains.
Rumi
Image
Mount the stallion of love and do not fear the path, love’s stallion knows the way exactly. With one leap, Love’s horse will carry you home.
Rumi
Image
Why set your heart on a piece ofearth,seek out the source which shines forever.
Rumi
Image
Finding faults is for those with tired minds.
Rumi
