BEAUTIFUL QUOTES

"Every heart sings a song, incomplete, until another heart whispers back. Those who wish to sing always find a song. At the touch of a lover, everyone becomes a poet." 
PLATO 

” What is the reason for living life, other than to love it?"
SOCRATES

PLATO's ultimate answer to the question “Who am I?” is not an “egoistic animal” or an “independent variable,” 
but an “immortal soul, corrupted by vice and purified by virtue, of whom the body is only an instrument".

‎" It isn't the man who has too little, but the man who craves more, that is poor"

Just in case...Heart might stop..Mind can forget...

I love them with my soul..Soul never stops or forgets ...” 
RUMI

“What makes the Sufi? Purity of heart;...
Not the patched mantle and the lust perverse
Of those vile earth-bound men who steal his name.
He in all dregs discerns the essence pure:
In hardship ease, in tribulation joy.
The phantom sentries, who with batons drawn
Guard Beauty's palace-gate and curtained bower,
Give way before him, unafraid he passes,
And showing the King's arrow, enters in...........”
RUMI

“Soul receives from soul that knowledge, therefore not by book nor from tounge
If knowledge of mysteries comes from emptiness of mind, that is illumination of heart..”
RUMI

‎"Your task isn't to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself which you have built against it..." 
RUMI

"Wisdom tells us we are not worthy; Love tells us we are. My life flows between the two."
RUMI, Turkish Traditions

"Parh parh ilm hazaar kitaaban, Kadi apne aap nu parhya nahin


Jaa jaa wardey mandar maseeti , Kadi mann apne wich wareya nahin

Anven larda shaitaan de naal bandeya, Kadi nafs apne naal larya nahin

(You have read thousands of books but you have never tried to read your own self.

You rush into Mandir and Masajid but you have never tried to enter your own heart.

Futile are all your battles with Satan for you have never tried to fight your own desires.
You endeavor to attain worldly heights but fail to catch hold of the one who resides in your own heart..)

"Knowledge is a burden if it robs you of innocence
Knowledge is a burden if it makes you feel you are special
Knowledge is a burden if it gives you an idea that you are wise
Knowledge is a burden if it isn't integrated into life
Knowledge is a burden if it doesn't bring you joy
Knowledge is a burden if it doesn't set you free"
SRI SRI RAVI SHANKAR

‎"Prayer within breadth is Silence
Love within infinity is Silence
Wisdom without words is Silence
Compassion without aim is Silence
Action without a doer is Silence
