If you knew the secret of Life
you too would choose
no other companion
but Love.

here are some quotes from Rumi ...

"You are not a drop in the ocean. You are the entire ocean, in a drop."

"Stop acting so small. You are the universe in ecstatic motion."

"Whatever lifts the corners of your mouth, trust that."

"Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself."

"Be like a tree and let the dead leaves drop."

"I have been a seeker and I still am, but I stopped asking the books and the stars. I started listening to the teaching of my Soul."

"In the blackest of your moments, wait with no fear."

"These pains you feel are messengers. Listen to them."

"Close your eyes, fall in love, stay there."

' i am a disciple, i am a follower, i am a devotee,

a sufi, a lotus eater, the original druid.

because the nectar of Love comes this way,

because i know i was with you everyday

and i didn't know it.

i slept with you every night but did not know it.

i thought that i was me but i was you

and didn't know it.'

Rumi

"I tried to find Him on the Christian cross, but He was not there;

I went to the temple of the Hindus and to the old pagodas,

but I could not find a trace of Him anywhere…

I searched on the mountains and in the valleys

but neither in the heights nor in the depths was I able to find Him.

I went to the Ka’bah in Mecca, but He was not there either…

I questioned the scholars and philosophers but He was beyond their understanding…

Then I looked into my heart and it was there

where He dwelled that I saw Him,

He was nowhere else to be found."

~ Rumi

My dear heart never think you are better than others. Listen to their sorrows with compassion. If you want peace, don’t harbour bad thoughts do not gossip and don’t teach what you do not know.

~ Rumi
