Rumi's Inspirational Thoughts

Inspiring Rumi



  • And so it is, that both the devil and the angelic spirits present us with objects of desire to awaken our power of choice.
  • There is a candle in your heart ready to be kindled. There is a void inside your soul ready to be filled. You feel it don't you?
  • My soul is from elsewhere, I’m sure of that, and I intend to end up there.



  • There is a candle in your heart, ready to be kindled. There is a void in your soul, ready to be filled. You feel it, don’t you?
  • It’s your road and yours alone. Others may walk it with you, but no one can walk it for you.
  • Let silence be the art you practice.
  • Maybe you are searching among the branches, for what only appears in the roots.
  • You have to keep breaking your heart until it opens.

  • These pains you feel are messengers. Listen to them.
  • 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.
  • What you seek is seeking you.
  • Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself.
  • You were born with wings, why prefer to crawl through life?


  • Don’t be satisfied with stories, how things have gone with others. Unfold your own myth.
  • Raise your words, not voice. It is rain that grows flowers, not thunder.
  • The wound is the place where the light enters you.
