Make peace with the universe. Take joy in it. It will turn to gold. Resurrection will be now. Every moment, a new beauty.

If you could get rid of yourself just once, the secret of secrets would open to you. The face of the unknown, hidden beyond the universe would appear on the mirror of your perception.

Do you pay regular visits to yourself? Start now.

Where there is ruin, there is hope for a treasure.

Be patient where you sit in the dark. The dawn is coming.

Don’t turn away. Keep your gaze on the bandaged place. That’s where the light enters you.

One of the marvels of the world: The sight of a soul sitting in prison with the key in its hand.

Everyone is overridden by thoughts; that’s why they have so much heartache and sorrow.

The wound is the place where the light enters you.

Sorrow… It pulls up the rotten roots, so that new roots hidden beneath have room to grow. Whatever sorrow shakes from your heart, far better things will take their place.

Your depression is connected to your insolence and refusal to praise.

Whenever sorrow comes, be kind to it. For God has placed a pearl in sorrow’s hand.

Love is the water of life, jump into this water.

With life as short as a half-taken breath, don’t plant anything but love.

If destiny comes to help you, love will come to meet you. A life without love isn’t a life.

Now I am sober and there’s only the hangover and the memory of love.

This is a subtle truth. Whatever you love, you are.

When we practice loving kindness and compassion we are the first ones to profit.

On the path of love we are neither masters nor the owners of our lives. We are only a brush in the hand of the master painter.

I have no companion but Love, no beginning, no end, no dawn. The soul calls from within me: ‘You, ignorant of the way of Love, set me free.’

I once had a thousand desires. But in my one desire to know you all else melted away.

This is what love does and continues to do. It tastes like honey to adults and milk to children.

There is no salvation for the soul but to fall in love. Only lovers can escape out of these two worlds.

When I am with you, we stay up all night. When you’re not here, I can’t go to sleep.
