During my visit to Istanbul two years ago I had the pleasure of watching a Sema ceremony, it was one of the most spiritual and beautiful things I have ever witnessed, currently reading Rumi's Masnavi : )
Rumi says; I looked to smallest things they are whirling and praying and I looked to biggest things (galaxies,stars,planets) they are whirling and praying to our Creator. I just joined them.
Oh, YES. RUMI said this --> 700 years ago------------------smallest things are whirling & praying to Biggest things whirling / spinning.! How correct he was. Now a days , we know this as a matter of fact-----all are SPINNING-----each and every atom-----electrons spinning around protons/photons , planets spinning , galaxies spinning. This SPIN is no longer just a spiritual statement-------it is actually happening---NO QUESTION ABOUT THIS -------- THIS SPIN IS UNIVERSAL!!!
I have do whirling almost 12 years. First few years it was more body balance work. Few years later I started to feel the higher energy. Now when I whirling I feel Divine and all is one. ; ) It's one kind very powerful dynamic meditation, suggest to everyone.
Kay Young you know what if you are not Muslim You never understand the Sufism and Tasavvuf!you whirling but you just think you’re my only like spirit dancing to us it’s different!
@son beste Thank u for sharing, I'll do it.🙏 I listen to Qur'an with English translation oftenly, your suggestion is included in my most favourite parts of Qur'an ( : ruclips.net/video/bZEsgrRU7ns/видео.html
@@papatyagulgurbetci9284 Today someone left comment to me and I read ur 3 years back comment again, very appreciated. When i lived in Egypt, blessly lived with some Muslim friends. One day i had a deep conversation with a sincere Muslim friend, we shared what we know about God/Divine, in the end she seriously told me I'm Muslim, I got so much joy and felt very very touched, because I come from Buddhism & Hinduism background. It made me realise, no matter what we call Him by different languages, in different cultures, God is the same one. It was a beautiful journey for both of us to know it. Islam/Sufism are the ways for me to know more about God, I don't know that much like a Qur'an hard study Muslim or/and a traditional Sufi, but I did learn a lot by Islam and Sufism, both of them made me have stronger faith and some clarity of God, and experienced "we are one". I like the way how I approache God, won't be divided into different religions and cultures. Thank you any way, let me think deeper, have a great day🙏
@@papatyagulgurbetci9284 There are two kinds of understanding: with the mind, and with the soul. Muslims may have a deeper mental understanding of the whirling etc., but anyone whose heart and soul is owned by God immediately gets it. Blessings and love to you all.
That's one of the most beautiful things I've seen! Let's all be united, people from all religions. I'm certain that's god's will. I'm jewish, and I live in Israel, and I send love to my muslim brothers. :)
Sufi whirling is a meditation which originated among Sufis, and which is still practiced by the Sufi Dervishes of the Mevlevi order. It is a customary dance performed within the Sema, or worship ceremony, through which dervishes (also called semazens) aim to reach the source of all perfection, or kemal.
Perfect. This clip shows one the whole ceremony of the Sema. start to finish (unlike the other clips out there that just want to focus on the whirling part). Beautiful production, highly recommend to anyone with even the slightest interest or curiosity in Rumi, the Sema, Mevlevi, Sufism or simply the 'whirling dervishes'...
Well I just got back from Istanbul yesterday and been to this very place to see the ceremony..Absolutely love it..~Very peaceful and beautiful..thanks for the upload..
In the symbolism of the Sema ritual, the semazen's camel's hair hat (sikke) represents the tombstone of the ego; his wide, white skirt represents the ego's shroud. By removing his black cloak, he is spiritually reborn to the truth. At the beginning of the Sema, by holding his arms crosswise, the semazen appears to represent the number one, thus testifying to God's unity. While whirling, his arms are open: his right arm is directed to the sky, ready to receive God's beneficence;
Although I find myself more drawn to Naqshbandi traditions for my personal practice and devotion I have always had a fondness for those of the Mevlevi :)
It left breathless... I also felt a little dizzy by just seeing them whirling. The deep eyes in their faces and the deep of their voices. Wonderful. ¡Thanks for posting it!
Sema is the stylized ceremony of remembering The Creator. Depending on the particular spiritual order e.g. Mehlevis or Shadliyyah, the sema may comprise of particular physical movements, chanting/recitations of Quranic verses, names of Allah etc but enriched throughout by meditative God-consciousness! Consider yourself fortunate then that the ceremony has brought tears to your eyes for something in your innermost recess has been awakened to and reminded of The Creator!
or worship ceremony, through which dervishes (also called semazens) aim to reach the source of all perfection, or kemal. This is sought through abandoning one's "nafs", egos or personal desires, by listening to the music, focusing on God, and spinning one's body in repetitive circles, which has been seen as a symbolic imitation of planets in the Solar System orbiting the sun.
his left hand, upon which his eyes are fastened, is turned toward the earth. The semazen conveys God's spiritual gift to those who are witnessing the Sema. Revolving from right to left around the heart, the semazen embraces all humanity with love. The human being has been created with love in order to love. Mevlâna Jalâluddîn Rumi says, "All loves are a bridge to Divine love. Yet, those who have not had a taste of it do not know
Hmm... I'm not familiar with the Mevlevi order's ceremonies but it looks interesting. I would love to spend time with them if I ever go to Turkey, Insha Allah.
this is so beautiful it brought a tear to my eyes. what an amazing form of spiritual practice, worship, and prayer... i read as much as i could so that i may have some understanding as to what this means to the Sufi, but i did not find anything that explained what the green "tent-like" structures are off to the side. there are quite a few of them, and i would love to know what they represent if anyone could tell me. thank you.
How can I learn sema? Please guide me 😞 I don't know the process. I want to practice this beautiful spiritual sacred whirling dance here in Bangladesh.
Ashraful Islam There is schools in Turkey that learns people how to be a whirling dervish but I don’t know if it exist any schools like that in another place.
Hello, my name is John and I wanted to ask you about a recording of sema ceremony which is not further available on RUclips. Writing only Turkish dervish music this maybe two hour video appeared as one of the first options. If I am not mistaken this was a recording of this ceremony in Instabul either in 2012 or 2014, but for more than three years is not available. Do you know where I could find this audio (or video)?
yoshi, is one of the original warriors stars sent to bring protection to earth. your ancestors therefore you, appear to be one of the pureterian souls.
I do not have a perfect English but as I understand and as I can translate:(the beginning part of the video, blonde woman’s speech) Sema(whirling of dervishes) means reaching the truth by soaring with mind & love and forgetting nefs(there is no concrete translation for this word but generally means bad desires of human being). Sema means being nothing when you reach Hak(the One who Created everything, Creator, Allah, God) Sema also means being mature and then being a servant of Allah, God again. Sema has been described with these couple of sentences.

I went to this wonderful place eleven years ago, around the time this video was made. It was a very moving experience that I will never forget.
Rumi says; I looked to smallest things they are whirling and praying and I looked to biggest things (galaxies,stars,planets) they are whirling and praying to our Creator. I just joined them.
hmm.... I've never thought of that. Everything whirls or spins.
Thank you for sharing . It is absolutely true.
Rumi is a mushrik

The green structures are in fact graves.

Can someone translate what the lady at the beginning is saying?
