“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.”
”This is love: to fly toward a secret sky, to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment. First to let go of life. Finally, to take a step without feet.”
“We come spinning out of nothingness, scattering stars like dust”
“The lion is most handsome when looking for food”
“Sell your cleverness and buy bewilderment.”
“Why do you stay in prison when the door is so wide open? Move outside the tangle of fear-thinking. Live in silence.”
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
I can’t stop pointing to the beauty. Every moment and place says, “Put this design in your carpet!”
Forget the future. I’d worship someone who could do that
—Jalal ad-Din Rumi
