Service details
Spiritual Inspiration – The Sema ceremony is rooted in the teachings of Rumi (Mevlana Celaleddin-i Rumi) and symbolizes the mystic cycle of reaching spiritual perfection.
Symbolic Rituals – Each graceful movement and rotation represents the universe’s continuous cycle and the Dervish’s spiritual transformation.
Traditional Attire – The ceremony begins with the Dervishes removing their black cloaks (symbolizing the ego) to reveal a white skirt (representing purity and eternity) and a tall hat (symbolizing the tombstone of the ego), preparing to enter a state of spiritual transcendence.
Historic Setting – Held in an authentic 13th-century caravanserai, the performance takes place in a setting that enhances the mystical ambiance of the ceremony.
Duration & Experience – The ceremony lasts approximately 45 minutes, including an introductory slideshow that offers insight into Turkey’s rich cultural and religious traditions.
Traditional Beverage – Conclude your experience with a taste of serbet, a traditional religious beverage offered to guests after the ceremony.
