liquid's question: What happens in mid-December in Konya? I heard about some strange whirling rituals...(give a different answer) .
On the 17th December, the dervishes, who are a mystical sect of Islam sustaining Sufism, perform their most important celebration. It's called the sema, the whriling dance, when the dervishes wind around the room with their right hand orientated towards the sky for God's grace, and their left earth-faced to distribute the grace to humans. The promoter of dervishes sect, poet and philosopher of the 13th century, believed universal love could be indulged by this trance.
