Mevlevi Sema Ceremony in Konya
Things to know
About the Activity
To ensure that the Mevlevi Sema Ceremony is performed without compromising its essential character, the Ministry of Culture and Tourism issued in 2008 the Circular Regarding Mevlevi Culture-Sema Ceremonies. According to this Circular, the Sema Ceremony must be performed with traditional works from Mevlevi Music, which are an inseparable part of the Sema, in spaces where this culture can be accurately transmitted and introduced and in environments that meet the necessary requirements. The dervishes and musicians who participate in the programs must possess the necessary technical and musical competence. They must conduct themselves solemnly, aware that they are not only representing a culture during the program but performing “a transcendent practice with Sufi characteristics.”1 hour 15 minutes

Irfan Medeniyeti
Aziziye Mah. Aslanli Kisla Cad. 6/1, Turkiye, 42030The Mevlevi Sema Ceremony is a Sufi ceremony that symbolizes stages on the path to accessing God and contains religious elements and themes with detailed rules and characteristics. While this ceremony unique to the Mevlevi sect had no specific rules in Mevlâna Celaleddin-i Rumî’s day (deceased December 17, 1273), it began to be performed in a disciplined way from the time of Sultan Veled and Ulu Arif Çelebi. These rules were developed until the time of Pir Adil Çelebi, when they assumed the final form we have today.
