Known to the west as Whirling Dervishes, the members of the Mevlevi Order (named for their founder Mevlana) practice this Sufi ritual, which dates to the 13th century, which is full of symbolism. The full skirts represent the ego’s shroud. The camel-hair conical headdresses symbolizes the ego’s tomb, and the twirling itself acknowledges that everything — from the Earth to the atom — is constantly revolving. As the Dervishes extend their arms, their right palms face up and the left palms face downward. One hand is receiving (beneficence) from God, the other hand is delivering to the people. This form of dance which is known as “Sema” is not just a routine movement of the body and arms but a spiritual experience that combines the music,...

Allah (/ˈæl.lə, ˈɑːl.lə, əˈl.lɑː/; Arabic: الله, romanized: Allāh, IPA: [ʔaɫ.ɫaːh] ) is the common Arabic word for God. In the English language, the word generally refers to God in Islam. Sufi whirling (or Sufi turning) (Turkish: Semazen borrowed from Persian Sama-zan, Sama, meaning listening, from Arabic, and zan, meaning doer, from Persian) is a form of physically active meditation which originated among certain Sufi groups, and which is still practiced by the Sufi Dervishes of the Mevlevi order and other orders such as the Rifa'i-Marufi. It is a customary meditation practice performed within the sema, or worship ceremony, through which dervishes (also called semazens, from Persian سماعزن) aim to reach the source of all perfection, ...

Waw The letter waw is copula and a mark for the voice in the Arabic language, symbolizing the connection of God and man. The composition is not incidentally made in a circular form, it is there to symbolize the ritual of dhikr, to remind one of the infinite repetition and the circular movement and rhythm of composition are an association to the ritual’s choreography, right to left, like a cosmic movement. This visual dhikr, which, upon seeing calligraphy, prevents one from oblivion and brings him back to the state of consciousness, is a symbolism of the movement of the cosmos and the planets, because, according to Sufi teaching, everything is in movement. In art, Muslims “developed a great love for the waw and used it from about 1700...

‘You are not exceptional in your capacity for Darkness or Light. You are exceptional to the degree to which you struggle with your Darkness and towards your Light. And Allahu Alim.’ – Shahbano Aliani (Sheikha in the Shadhalli Darqawi Tariqa) The Mevlevi Order (Turkish: Mevlevilik or Mevleviyye Persian: طریقت مولویه‎) is a Sufi order in Konya (modern day Turkey) (capital of the Anatolian Seljuk Sultanate) founded by the followers of Jalal ad-Din Muhammad Balkhi-Rumi, a 13th-century Persian poet, Islamic theologian and Sufi mystic. The Mevlevi are also known as the Whirling Dervishes due to their famous practice of whirling as a form of dhikr (remembrance of God). Dervish is a common term for an initiate of the Sufi path; the whirl...
