Jalal-Uddin Rumi

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.
Jalal-Uddin Rumi

Let the beauty we love be what we do.
Jalal-Uddin Rumi

Come out of the circle of time / And into the circle of love.
Jalal ud-Din Rumi

Only from the heart Can you touch the sky.
Jalal-Uddin Rumi

Return from existence to nonexistence. You are seeking the Lord and you belong to him. Nonexistence is a place of income; flee it not. This existence of more and less is a place of expenditure.
Jalal-Uddin Rumi

The Eternal looked upon me for a moment with His eye of power, and annihilated me in His being, and become manifest to me in His essence. I saw I existed through Him.
Jalal-Uddin Rumi

Everyone sees the unseen in proportion to the clarity of his heart, and that depends upon how much he has polished it. Whoever has polished it more sees more -- more unseen forms become manifest to him.
Jalal-Uddin Rumi

Pilgrimage to the place of the wise is to find escape from the flame of separateness.
Jalal-Uddin Rumi

I died a mineral, and became a plant. I died a plant and rose an animal. I died an animal and I was man. Why should I fear? When was I less by dying?
Jalal-Uddin Rumi

Let the lover be disgraceful, crazy, absent-minded. Someone sober will worry about events going badly. Let the lover be.
Jalal-Uddin Rumi

Reason is like an officer when the king appears. The officer then loses his power and hides himself. Reason is the shadow cast by God; Go is the sun.
Jalal-Uddin Rumi

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.
Jalal ud-Din Rumi
