Sama

Sama is a spiritual dance and ritual performed by Sufi practitioners, often as part of the whirling dervish ceremony. Rooted in Islamic mysticism, Sama represents a meditative act of devotion and connection to the divine. Through rhythmic spinning, accompanied by music and chanting, participants seek to transcend the physical world and reach a state of spiritual unity. The dance symbolizes the soul’s journey toward God, shedding earthly distractions and embracing divine love. Sama is both an art form and a spiritual practice, embodying grace, rhythm, and profound faith.
