- Christian, Jew,
Muslim, shaman, Zoroastrian, stone, ground, mountain, river, each has
a secret way of being with the mystery, unique and not to be judged.
Rumi
Quotes
- Load the ship and
set out. No one knows for certain whether the vessel will sink or reach
the harbor. Cautious people say, "I'll do nothing until I can be
sure". Merchants know better. If you do nothing, you lose. Don't
be one of those merchants who wont risk the ocean.
Rumi
Quotes
- When you do things
from your soul, you feel a river moving in you, a joy.
Rumi
Quotes
- Your task is not
to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within
yourself that you have built against it.
Rumi
Quotes
- Everyone is so
afraid of death, but the real sufis just laugh: nothing tyrannizes their
hearts. What strikes the oyster shell does not damage the pearl.
Rumi
Quotes
- Conventional opinion
is the ruin of our souls.
Rumi
Quotes
- 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
Quotes
- If in thirst you
drink water from a cup, you see God in it. Those who are not in love
with God will see only their own faces in it.
