I am sure one day, I will go to Konya, a city in Turkey, where the tomb of Molavi,a great poet, is there. Molavi's poem and idea made the Sufi's dance perfect.
This journey might take a long time to happen, for I am not quite sure that I could understand the meaning of Sufi, who have a good understanding of God.
I am going to have some more study about Sufi's dance, yet I can remeber some of my previous study about Sufi's dance. Indeed, the dance always is done in a circle that it is the symbol of solar system and the sun at the center of it. And, the circle is the symbol of ideal perfection and unity with no start or no end. Also, every spot on the perimeter of the circle has the same distance from the center that mean, the circle is the symbol of God, whose center is everywhere and his perimeter is nowhere. Also, the circle is the simplest curve and it has lots of sides,and it is the symbol of simplicity and complicaty. In addition, the circle doesn't have any start or end that means eternity in Sofi's idea. And, turning during dance is based Molavi's idea that everything is moving and rotating from atoms to plants.
There are, also, two instuments that Sufis play during dance, Daf and Pipe. But, I am not sure about knowing the meaning. It could be the symbol of creation. The rhythm of Daf reminds the model that God created the world . So, I am going to learn more and then I will visit Tombe of Molavi.
