The
performance of Sufis (or
semazen) is called a
Sema. The Sema ritual is
a form of Sufi dance and
was born out of Rumi’s
inspiration. In the Sema,
semazens, who are also
called “whirling
dervishes,” whirl—not to
self-induce a trance, as
some believe, but rather
to reflect universal
truth, that everything
in the existence
revolves: electrons,
moons, planets, entire
galaxies; humans live by
the circulation of the
blood in our bodies, by
the cycle of the
seasons, and by the
stages of our lives; we
come from the earth and
we return to it. Program
starts with the
classical Turkish music
concert performed by a
traditional orchestra
for 15 minutes. Then the
ceremony starts and
lasts about 45 minutes
under the amazing
lighting and mystic
atmosphere of Hodjapasha.
Complimentary beverages
and Turkish Delight
service is available
before the performance.
