The Whirling Dervish

Some of my favorite Rumi lines

Lose your soul in God’s love,
I swear there is no other way!

Lose your soul in God’s love,
I swear there is no other way!

I will find new meaning in every joy and sorrow
In that silence,I will hear the voice of spirit,
and freed from this world,I will see another world
where the end is another beginning.

The time has come to turn
your heart into a temple of fire.
Your essence is gold hidden in dust.
To reveal its splendor,
you need to burn in the fire of Love.

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

Embark on the Journey of Love
It takes you from yourself to your self.

Love is such a vast sea, it has neither
edges nor ends nor corners.

Hardship may dishearten at first,
but every hardship passes away.
All despair is followed by hope;
all darkness is followed by sunshine.

In the garden I see only your face.
From trees and blossoms
I inhale only your fragrance.

Within tears, find a hidden laughter;
seek treasure amid ruins, sincere one.

Be certain in the religion of Love
There are no believers or unbelievers.
Love embraces all.

Listen with the ears of tolerance !
See through the eyes of compassion !
Speak with the language of love.

Wonderful, beautiful, uplifting, visionary, emotional, spirit-filled poetry

I particularly like:

"...Be certain in the religion of Love
There are no believers or unbelievers.
Love embraces all..."
