"Silence is the root of everything. If..." - Quote by Rumi

“When you are dead, seek for your resting place not in the earth, but in the hearts of men.”

“Whenever they rebuild an old building, they must first of all destroy the old one.”

“Enough of these phrases, conceit and metaphors,I want burning, burning, burning.”

“Your very silence shows you agree.”

“I need silence, and to be alone and to go out, and to save one hour to consider what has happened to my world, what death has done to my world.”

“Silenceis an ocean. Speech is a river.When the ocean is searching for you, don't walkinto the language-river. Listen to the ocean,and bring your talky business to an end.Traditional words are just babblingin that presence, and babbling is a substitutefor sight.”

“The book is all in us. Fool, hearest not thou? In thine own heart day and night is singing that Eternal Music - Sachchidânanda, soham, soham - Existence-Knowledge-Bliss Absolute, I am He, I am He.”

“Use the light to return to clarity.”

“Man in his effort to pray and receive guidance actually enhances his separation from who he really is and what he is reaching for. In time, you have all answers to all questions.”
