Ramt af kærlighedens digter Rumi
Og hvem er Rumi så lige?
Jalaluddin Rumi – kærlighedens digter
Indflydelsesrig persisk poet og digter, der levede fra 1207 – 1273! Udover at skrive digte, var Rumi også anerkendt som teolog, juridisk rådgiver, sufi-mystiker* og åndelig mester.
Hans digte og citater er oversat til utallige sprog, da han taler et sprog, vi alle forstår. Det universelle!
Rumi har fans fra hele verden, og mennesker fra både Europa, Asien, Mellemøsten, USA m.fl. strømmer til hans grav for at bede og meditere.
I lille Danmark har Rumi også mange fans, for hans visdom og budskaber om grænseoverskridende kærlighed rammer lige i hjertet… ❤️

Nu til udvalgte citater fra Rumi, som jeg virkelig resonnerer med:
Citater, der giver styrke
- If you find all your roads and paths blocked, sHe will show you a secret way that no one knows.
- What you seek is seeking you.
- As you start to walk on the way, the way appears.
- The moment you accept what troubles you’ve been given the door will open.
- Live life as if everything is rigged in your favour.
Citater, der taler direkte til mit ❤️
Everyone has been made for some particular work and the desire for that work has been put in every heart. - You have to keep breaking your heart, until it opens.
- Be a witness not a judge. Focus on yourself, not on others. Listen to your heart, not to the crowd.
- Half of life is lost in charming others. And other half is lost in anxiety caused by others. Leave this game, you have played enough.
- Be grateful for whoever comes, because each has been sent as a guide from beyond.
Citater, de fedeste
- Run from what’s comfortable. Forget safety. Live where you fear to live. Destroy your reputation. Be notorious.
- Don’t be satisfied with stories, how things have gone with others. Unfold your own myth.
- Stop trying to fit in, when you were born to stand out.
- I learned that every mortal will taste death. Only some will taste life.
