Known to the west as Whirling Dervishes, the Mevlevi Order was founded by Mevlana Rumi in the 13th century. The Order wrote of tolerance, forgiveness, and enlightenment. They survive today as a cultural brotherhood. They are not theatrical spectacles but sacred rituals.

The ritual of the Mevlevi sect, known as the sema, is a serious religious ritual performed by Muslim priests in a prayer trance to Allah. Mevlevi believed that during the sema the soul was released from earthly ties, and able to freely and jubilantly commune with the divine. Dervish literally means “doorway” and is thought to be an entrance from this material world to the spiritual, heavenly world.

The Whirling Dervishes played an important part in the evolution of Ottoman high culture.
From the fourteenth to the twentieth century, their impact on classical poetry, calligraphy, and visual arts was profound. Rumi and his followers integrated music into their rituals as an article of faith. Rumi emphasized that music uplifts our spirit to realms above and we hear the tunes of the Gates of Paradise.

Please be available at the theater 30 minutes before the showtime.

Important Notice: Latecomers are allowed to enter the sema session first 10 minutes for the sake of a peaceful ceremony. Booking of visitors who come later than 15 minutes is regarded as a No-Show and the ticket price will not be refunded.
Our theater is not suitable for wheelchairs.

SEMA RITUAL

The most important elements of the worldwide recognition of Mevlevi are the Sema Ceremony and Whirling Dervishes. This traditional ritual, which has been practiced for about 800 years, is one of the most important legacies of Turkish culture. Sema is a spiritual journey that represents the disappearance of the servant in the Truth by turning to the truth, exalting with love and leaving his soul, and his return as matured.

How much Does Whirling Dervish Cost in Istanbul?

 

Chinese Language ;

舞者脱去黑衣意味着摆脱凡尘 ,留下的黑带,象征自己的肉体,白褂和白裙代表真主,土黄色的高帽子象征墓碑。土耳其旋转舞不仅仅是舞蹈,更是一种宗教仪式。

苏菲教派认为万物都是旋转的,人从出生至去世,都是一个循环,都是一种旋转,于是,他们通过旋转这种舞蹈形式与宇宙和神达成沟通和接触,这种形式被称为“梅夫拉维祭拜仪式”,或“旋转舞仪式”,是一种优雅的灵魂出窍的舞蹈仪式。

提到旋转舞,就不得不提到土耳其旋转舞的创始人杰拉尔丁·鲁米,鲁米是土耳其最伟大的神秘主义哲学家之一,是梅夫拉维教派重要的先知梅乌拉那(意为“我们的导师”)。据称苦修中的鲁米,当年在土耳其的中部城市科尼亚定居时,因听到铁匠铺的敲击声,而感受到了某种神秘力量,情不自禁地旋转起来没有停歇,感受到了与宇宙与安拉的对话。他去世后,他的儿子把他的信徒们组织成一个教徒会,称为梅夫拉维,或旋转托钵僧。
