Ceremonia del Derviche de Estambul, una experiencia mística sufí
Descripción
La ceremonia del Derviche Giratorio en Estambul es una práctica espiritual fascinante y cautivadora que se lleva a cabo durante siglos. Es un antiguo ritual sufí que se originó en el siglo XIII con la fundación de la Orden Mevlevi por el poeta persa Rumi. La ceremonia se lleva a cabo en un entorno místico, generalmente en un hermoso y ornamentado salón conocido como tekke. El tekke se adorna con alfombras, velas y otros objetos simbólicos que ambientan el evento. La audiencia se reúne con anticipación, ansiosa por presenciar la profunda y mística experiencia que está a punto de desarrollarse. Los Derviches Giradores, también conocidos como semazen, visten túnicas blancas tradicionales, que simbolizan la pureza y el desapego de las pertenencias materiales. Llevan sombreros altos de fieltro llamados sikkes, que representan las lápidas del ego, que retiran antes de realizar la danza. Los derviches entran en la sala en procesión, creando una atmósfera etérea mientras ocupan lentamente sus lugares.

Not worth the money. Most of the performance was flute music and chanting with some twirling at the end…and after a couple minutes of twirling that was enough for us.
I did not know much about this until I experienced it. It was a great learning experience while in Istanbul!
What an experience ! The ambience of the atmosphere was wonderful. The lighting and verses that go along with the whirling dervish show were a nice touch
Dear Guest, what a beautiful way to describe it! 🌀 We're so glad the lighting and the verses added that extra layer of depth to the ceremony. The Whirling Dervish experience truly is unlike anything else. We hope to welcome you back for another spiritual and mesmerising evening very soon! Kind regards 🧿 Tourmania Team
Beautiful experience that made me realise how spiritual the dance is and reason for it.Wonderful and excellent location
Dear Guest, thank you for these beautiful words! 🌀 It's truly special when the Whirling Dervish ceremony touches you on a deeper level and reveals its spiritual meaning. That connection is exactly what makes this experience so unique. We hope to welcome you back again soon! Kind regards 🧿 Tourmania Team
It is something personal, you need to experience it for yourself. This was my second time. You should try it.
Dear Guest, thank you for the thoughtful words! 😊 We couldn't agree more, some experiences simply have to be lived firsthand. The fact that this was your second time means the world to us! We hope to welcome you back for a third time very soon! Kind regards 🧿 Tourmania Team
WOW. WOW. WOW! What an AMAZING experience seeing the Whirling Dervishes was! I highly recommend this experience on every level - cultural, spiritual, or even just as a curious tourist. The fact that it was a full Whirling Dervish Ceremony (running approx. an hour) with singing, live musicians, and probably a good 45-minutes out outstanding whirling dervish movement (I hesitate to call it 'dancing,' because it's not - it's so much more meaningful and deeper than that) by 5 highly trained and professional Dervishes made for an evening we will never forget, and will absolutely return back to do again. As the Dervishes enter their trances, you can't help but get caught up in the moment. It's very hypnotizing and you're absolutely caught up in the moment. And the venue is PERFECT for this - it's authentic, unique, and every single seat has an amazing view. What an incredible evening. BTW, Tourmania did a wonderful job putting this experience together. They were awesome at answering any questions I had quickly, and made the experience so enjoyable. When you're in a new city seeing an event, you really want to be informed and kept in the loop of every detail, and they did just that. (PS - When you go, read the posters in the lobby area to get a little background on why the Dervishes whirl, and what the ceremony is about. It'll heighten your experience tenfold.)
Dear Guest, What a beautifully written review, thank you so much! Your description of the ceremony is truly moving and we're so glad it left such a profound impression. The tip about reading the lobby posters is wonderful advice for future guests. Really glad Tourmania's communication made everything so seamless. Hope to welcome you back again someday! Kind regards 🧿 Tourmania Team
It was a very meditative experience - highly recommended
Liebe/r Gast, Vielen Dank! Ein meditatives Erlebnis, das ist eine wunderschöne Beschreibung. Wir freuen uns, dass es Ihnen so gut gefallen hat und hoffen, Sie bald wiederzusehen! Herzliche Grüße 🧿 Tourmania Team
Going to see the whirling dervish was an education. The map was very helpful to find the location. The event was approximately one hour in duration. The waiting area had many explanations about the people and the commitment required to participate. There was music and ceremonial carpets laid out for the dancers. Well worth the time to see such dedication to their religion. I left with a better understanding of the significance of the dance.
Dear Guest, Thank you for this thoughtful review! The Whirling Dervish ceremony really is a deeply educational and moving experience and we're so glad you left with a greater understanding of its significance. Really glad the waiting area displays added that extra layer of context. Hope to welcome you back again someday! Kind regards 🧿 Tourmania Team
Rather tedious and monotonous performance. Perhaps I need more spiritual growth to enjoy it but cannot recommend. I saw a lot of people dozing off, one gentleman had a full fledged nap. There was some seat number system that made no sense. The edges were filled with people while the seats close to the stage were left empty.
Dear Guest, Thank you for your honest feedback. The Whirling Dervish ceremony is indeed a deeply spiritual and meditative experience which may not appeal to everyone and we appreciate you sharing your perspective. Your point about the seating arrangement is a valid one and we will pass it on to the venue. We hope to have the chance to offer you a different experience someday! Kind regards 🧿 Tourmania Team
A great way to either start or end your day. It was such a blessing to get to see this practice. It was beautiful and hypnotizing to see. The movements, singing, and music were enchanting. I also liked getting to enter the museum early to learn more before the whirling started. The cultural center was also a gorgeous venue. Do this before you leave!
Dear Guest, What a beautifully written review, thank you! The Whirling Dervish ceremony really is one of those experiences that stays with you long after it ends. Really glad the museum added that extra layer of understanding before the performance began. A gorgeous venue, enchanting movements and music, we couldn't describe it better ourselves. Hope to welcome you back again someday! Kind regards 🧿 Tourmania Team
