Love is nothing other than finding the truth.
Forgive: if you never know forgiveness, You'll never know the blessings that God gives.
In the garden I see only your face From trees and blossoms I inhale only your fragrance.
Every moment I shape my destiny with a chisel - I am the carpenter of my own soul.
Come, even if you have broken your vow one thousand times, come, yet again, come, come.
Journeys bring power and love back into you. If you can't go somewhere, move in the passageways of the self. They are like shafts of light, always changing, and you change when you explore them.
Contain all human faces in your own without any judgment of them
Love is the water of life, jump into this water.
If you wish to be a mine of jewels, open the deep ocean within your heart.
Whoever finds love beneath hurt and grief disappears into emptiness with a thousand new disguises
Escape from the black cloud that surrounds you. Then you will see your own light as radiant as the full moon.
The world is nothing but a moment.
Those who practice Love have neither Religion or Status.
What you're seeking is seeking you.
