Mewlana Jalaluddin Rumi, “One Whisper Of The Beloved”

A lover asked his beloved, Do you love yourself more than you love me? Beloved replied, I have died to myself and I live for you. I've disappeared from myself and my attributes, I am present only for you. I've forgotten all my learnings, but from knowing you I've become a scholar. I've lost all my strength, but from your power I am able. I love myself...I love you. I love you...I love myself.

Love, Knowing, Able

Silence is an ocean. Speech is a river. When the ocean is searching for you, don't walk into the language-river. Listen to the ocean, and bring your talky business to an end. Traditional words are just babbling in that presence, and babbling is a substitute for sight.

Ocean, Sight, Rivers

Your breath touched my soul and I saw beyond all limits.

I merged so completely with love, and was so fused, that I became Love and Love became me.

Love Is, And Love

We are pain and what cures pain, both. We are the sweet cold water and the jar that pours. I want to hold you close like a lute, so that we can cry out with loving. Would you rather throw stones at a mirror? I am your mirror and here are the stones.

Love, Sweet, Pain

The thirsty look for water, but water also looks for thirsty.

The garden of the world has no limits except in your mind. Its presence is more beautiful than the stars with more clarity than the polished mirror of your heart.

Don't seek the water; get thirst.

Water, Thirst

When there's no sign of hope in the desert, so much hope still lives inside despair. Heart, don't kill that hope.

The intellectual quest is exquisite like pearls and coral, But it is not the same as the spiritual quest. The spiritual quest is on another level altogether, Spiritual wine has a subtler taste. The intellect and the senses investigate cause and effect. The spiritual seeker surrenders to the wonder.

Spiritual, Wine, Intellectual
