Don't go off sightseeing.
The real journey is right here.
The great excursion starts
from exactly where you are.
You are the world.
You have everything you need.
You are the secret.
You are the wide opened.

Don't look for the remedy for your troubles
outside yourself.
You are the medicine.
You are the cure for your own sorrow.

Additional quotes by Rumi

Work on your strong qualities
and become resplendent like the ruby.
Practice self-denial and accept difficulty.
Always see infinite life in letting the self die.
Your stoniness will decrease; your ruby nature will grow.
The signs of self-existence will leave your body,
and ecstasy will take you over.

عندما يُمنى عصرٌ بسود الايام

ليس البطل من يبلغ بُعد الصيت

.فإن تطلبِ اللؤلؤ، عليك بالغوص في عمق البحر

فما على الشاطئ غير الزبد
