We experience the Whirling #dervish in Konya, in the huge hall of the Mevlana Cultural Center.
During Ramadan, or ramazan in Turkish, the Whirling Dervish dance their Sema only on Saturday evenings after iftar.
"During this Sema, a ritual dance, the monks, dressed in characteristic robes and tapered fezzes, spin faster and faster, so that they go into ecstasy and thus unite their souls with the Supreme."
The Sema takes the form of a ritual worship with sung passages from the Qur'an and from the works of Mevlâna Jalâluddîn Rumi. The whole is very spiritual and serene and the hall is completely silent, both during and after the performance.
We travel the world fulltime in our classic #Land_Rover Defender 130, #overland, #offroad, #4x4 camper: Milady Landy
