This book explores the mystical world of the Whirling Dervishes, a Sufi order founded by the poet and mystic Mevlana Jalalu'ddin Rumi. It examines the Mevlevi tradition, including the sema, the whirling ceremony itself.
The book also focuses on the deep spiritual connection between Rumi and Shamsi Tabriz, and considers how their bond influenced Rumi's teachings. It offers insights into the Sufi concept of awareness and its importance in life. Furthermore, it provides a glimpse into the daily life of the dervishes within the tekke, their divine factory. Through photographs and text, the book invites readers to understand the Whirling Dervishes and the profound spiritual journey they undertake.
