Deep Wisdom

 Let us today look at a few quotes by the great Persian Sufi poet of the thirteenth century, Rumi. Currently it is quite a fashion to constantly quote him. Let us jump on the bandwagon, and let us look at some of his quotes which are often liked.

 I suppose, these are famous because of their simple expression but  tough paradoxical  meaning. Let us look at a few:

1) Do not feel lonely. The entire universe is within you.

2)Stop acting so small. You are the entire universe in ecstatic motion.

3) You are not a drop in the Ocean. You are an entire Ocean in a drop.

4) Only from the heart can you touch.

5) As you start to walk the way, the way appears.

Pratima@the power of poetry!
