How to turn like a dervish and get high naturally

07 Mar 2022

Description

In this episode, Michael talks about dervish dancing and how it can produce a state of consciousness that is unlike anything else. He explains that the dervish dances were invented by the Sufi saint Jatal Aden Alumi in the 13th century and describes how they are said to have been spontaneously created. The speaker discusses the history and philosophy of Sufi dancing, and how it can be used as a form of moving meditation. They explain that the goal of the practice is to reach a state of pure ecstasy, and that it is believed that this can only be achieved through consciousness of God. They provide instructions on how to perform the dance, and explain that it should be done in a room with nothing that could be bumped into or fallen over.

They're said to have been invented spontaneously by the Sufi saint Jatal Aden Alumi in the 13th century. Follow @ ZenBrainPodcast.com
