"It is scientifically recognized that the fundamental condition of our existence is to revolve. There is no being or object which does not revolve, because all beings are comprised of revolving electrons, protons, and neutrons in atoms. Everything revolves, and the human being lives by means of the revolution of these particles, by the revolution of the blood in his body, and by the revolution of the stages of his life, by his coming from the earth and his returning to it."
However, all of these revolutions are natural and unconscious.
But the human being, being in possession of mind and intelligence (theoretically, ahem) allows the whirling dervish or semazen, intentionally and consciously to participate in the shared revolution of other beings.

"Contrary to popular belief, the semazen's goal is not to lose consciousness or to fall into a state of ecstasy.
Instead, by revolving in harmony with all things in nature -- with the smallest cells and with the stars in the firmament -- the semazen testifies to the existence and the majesty of the Creator, thinks of Him, gives thanks to Him,
and prays to Him."

"In the symbolism of the Sema ritual,
the semazen's camel's hair hat (sikke) represents the tombstone ofthe ego; his wide, white skirt represents the ego's shroud. By removing his black cloak, he is spiritually reborn to the truth." (http://www.whirling-dervish.org)

The space for Freedom of expression &
the open respect & reception of that for
sentient beings
sentient beings
is the closest thing to bliss that one can
ever hope for especially for the downtrodden
Divine Feminine. Nothing can match it
no matter
no matter
how thickly gilded the cage or
"protective" the belief system.
Only a
Only a
Misrepresented Creator would create
the
the
Beauty of women to be covered up &
colourless!!....How refreshing see these
colourful people ignoring dark laws &
expressing their Love & Respect so
elaborately like forest birds
& the hat:
& the hat:
"tombstone to ego" Amazing!! "
