There is a moon inside every human being. Learn to be companions with it.

Who could be so lucky? Who comes to a lake for water and sees the reflection of moon.

Be like the sun for grace and mercy. Be like the night to cover others’ faults. Be like running water for generosity. Be like death for rage and anger. Be like the Earth for modesty. Appear as you are. Be as you appear.

Daylight, full of small dancing particles and the one great turning, our souls are dancing with you, without feet, they dance. Can you see them when I whisper in your ear?

You have no need to travel anywhere – journey within yourself. Enter a mine of rubies and bathe in the splendor of your own light.

If you wish to shine like day, burn up the night of self-existence. Dissolve in the Being who is everything.

Your heart is the size of an ocean. Go find yourself in its hidden depths.

Let the waters settle and you will see the moon and the stars mirrored in your own being.

Wherever water flows, life flourishes: wherever tears fall, divine mercy is shown.

How do I know who I am or where I am? How could a single wave locate itself in an ocean.

My heart, sit only with those who know and understand you.

There is nothing I want but your presence. In friendship, time dissolves.

Let’s rise above this animalistic behavior and be kind to one another.

Be a helpful friend, and you will become a green tree with always new fruit, always deeper journeys into love.

Study me as much as you like, you will never know me. For I differ a hundred ways from what you see me to be.

Stay with friends who support you in these. Talk with them about sacred texts, and how you are doing, and how they are doing, and keep your practices together.

Always search for your innermost nature in those you are with, as rose oil imbibes from roses.

My friend, the sufi is the friend of the present moment. To say tomorrow is not our way.

A warm, rainy day-this is how it feels when friends get together. Friend refreshes friend then, as flowers do each others, in a spring rain.

Words are a pretext. It is the inner bond that draws one person to another, not words.

Friendship of the wise is good; a wise enemy is better than a foolish friend.

If you are looking for a friend who is faultless, you will be friendless.

Why struggle to open a door between us when the whole wall is an illusion?

Friend, our closeness is this: anywhere you put your foot, feel me in the firmness under you.

Be with those who help your being.

Wherever you are, and whatever you do, be in love.

Only from the heart can you touch the sky. 

Your heart knows the way. Run in that direction.

Love is the bridge between you and everything.

I am not this hair, I am not this skin, I am the soul that lives within.

Close your eyes, fall in love, stay there.

Let the beauty we love be what we do.

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.

Let your teacher be love itself.

Laugh as much as you breathe. Love as long as you live.

Let yourself be silently drawn by the stronger pull of what you really love.

Be drunk with love, for love is all that exists.

Be soulful. Be kind. Be in love.

Be an empty page, untouched by words.

Love sometimes wants to do us a great favor: hold us upside down and shake all the nonsense out.

Lovers have heartaches that can’t be cured by drugs or sleep, or games, but only by seeing their beloved.

Wisdom tells us we are not worthy; love tells us we are. My life flows between the two.

Love risks everything and asks for nothing.

Lovers don’t finally meet somewhere. They’re in each other all along.

May these vows and this marriage be blessed.

You have within you more love than you could ever understand.

When you seek love with all your heart you shall find its echo in the universe.

If you want to win hearts, sow the seeds of Love. If you want heaven, stop scattering thorns on the road.

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.

The minute I heard my first love story I started looking for you, not knowing how blind that was. Lovers don’t finally meet somewhere. They’re in each other all along.
