More quotes by Rumi
if i can only recount the story of my life right out of my body flames will grow
Rumi
Whatever posessions and objects of its desires the lower self may obtain, it hangs on to them, refusing to let them go out of greed for more, or out of fear of poverty and need.
Rumi
There is a window between heart and heart: They are never separate like two bodies. Two lamps may not be united in their form - But their light merges into each other.
Rumi
Pull the thorn of existence out of the heart! Fast! For when you do, you will see thousands of rose gardens in yourself.
Rumi
Behind every atom of this world hides an infinite Universe.
Rumi
Stop learning. Start knowing
Rumi
I do not know who lives here in my chest, or why the smile comes. I am not myself, more the bare green knob of a rose that lost every leaf and petal to the morning wind.
Rumi
Beauty surrounds us.
Rumi
All your anxiety is because of your desire for harmony. Seek disharmony, then you will gain peace.
Rumi
All that you think is rain is not. Behind the veil angels sometimes weep.
Rumi
That which is false troubles the heart, but truth brings joyous tranquility.
Rumi
Knowledge that is acquired is not like this. Those who have it worry if audiences like it or not. It's a bait for popularity. Disputational knowing wants customers. It has no soul... The only real customer is God. Chew quietly your sweet sugarcane God-Love, and stay playfully childish.
Rumi
Everything is soul and flowering.
Rumi
You believe God is not there, but He is, Hidden in the secret of the divine mystery
Rumi
Whenever Beauty looks, Love is also there Whenever beauty shows a rosy cheek Love lights Her fire from that flame. When beauty dwells in the dark folds of night Love comes and finds a heart entangled in tresses. Beauty and Love are as body and soul. Beauty is the mine, Love is the diamond.
Rumi
LOVE comes of its own free will, it can't be learned in any school!
Rumi
My place is the Placeless, my trace is the Traceless 'Tis neither body nor soul, for I belong to the soul of the Beloved. I have put duality away, I have seen that the two worlds are one One I seek, One I know, One I see, One I call.
Rumi
I know you're tired but come, this is the way.
Rumi
Remember. The way you make love is the way God will be with you.
Rumi
Counterfeiters exist because there is such a thing as real gold.
Rumi
