Whirling Dervishes by Hoda Baraka
Ritual and prayer can be a much needed form of anchoring in today’s world where overstimulation is the name of the game. For the whirling dervishes, spinning provides a form of prayer, to look inwards and temporarily disconnect from this world in search of spiritual ascendance. A practice to cleanse the heart from worldly attachments and return anew inspired by the words of Rumi: “Only from the heart can you touch the sky.”
