Cappadocia Whirling Dervish Show

The Sema is comprised of seven sections. Each section has a distinct meaning. When we examine the Sema from a scientific perspective, we see the following: the fundamental condition of existence is rotation. The common similarity among all beings, from the smallest particle to the most distant stars, is the rotation of the electrons and protons in the atoms that constitute their structure. Just as everything else rotates, human beings naturally and unconsciously rotate due to the rotations present in the atoms that constitute their structure, the rotation of the blood in their bodies, their coming from the earth and returning to it, and their rotation with the world.
