Jalāl ad-Dīn Muhammad Balkhī or simply Rumi was a 13th century
persian mystic,poet and theologian. Rumi’s importance is
considered to transcend national and ethnic borders. His poems
have been widely translated into many of the world’s languages
and transposed into various formats. In 2007, he was described
as the “most popular poet in America.” Rumi’s works are written
in Persian and his Mathnawi remains one of the purest literary
glories of Persia, and one of the crowning glories of the
Persian language. Rumi is one of the person who keeps me
inspiring through his quotes and poems. and i think he can
inspire you too,so i am posting some of his quotes here which
are my favorites. Any one who wants to read more about him can
go to wikipedia’s page on Rumi. Why should I seek? I am the same
as He. His essence speaks through me. I have been looking for
myself! “Everything in the universe is within you. Ask all from
yourself.” “Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to
seek and find all the barriers within
