By Staff Writer, *The Dance of the Whirling Dervishes* - Seeking Media.com - Melbourne, AustraliaWednesday, November 24, 2010
Melbourne is host to a one-off free public performance of the magical mystic dance of the whirling dervishes.
This magical 700 year old Sufi ceremony is traced to Konya, Turkey and the great Mevlevi teacher Jalaludin Rumi.
The costumes and ritual of the Sema represent the inner spiritual journey. The whirling motion requires the mind to be perfectly still and centred, thus opening the door to God consciousness.
This event is in honour of a visit to Australia by Mawlana Sheikh Hisham Kabbani, a notable Naqshbandi Sufi teacher, and is being performed by the Sufi Path Group, a practicing Sufi group who meet regularly in Essendon.
Venue: Serenity Cultural Function Centre, Craigieburn 3064, Vic
No Booking Required / Free of Charge / Family Friendly
