Quote by Shams-i-Tabrizi: “Whatever you look for, is looking for you. Seek and you shall find.”

This quote conveys a mystical understanding of interconnectedness and destiny. It suggests that our deepest desires and true calling are reciprocated by the universe, implying that earnest pursuit will inevitably lead to discovery and the fulfillment of one's spiritual quest.

Shams' mystical teachings during his brief yet profound time with Rumi inspired a deeper understanding of spiritual connection. This quote suggests a reciprocal relationship between seeker and sought, central to Sufi philosophy and the journey of divine love.

Persian Sufi mystic born around 1185 in Tabriz, Azerbaijan, best known as the spiritual teacher and companion of Rumi, whose encounter with him transformed Rumi from a conventional theologian into one of the world's greatest mystical poets. Little of his own writing survives beyond the Maqalat (Discourses).
