SHEB-I ARUS -
Commemoration of RUMI's wedding with eternity
On the 17th of December,
the Australian Intercultural Society organized a special Sema
ceremony offered by the Mevlevi Order of Australia to celebrate
Hazreti Mevlana Jalaluddin Rumi’s ‘Sheb-i Arus’ or ‘Wedding Night’.
It is the traditional night in the modern era when the Mevlevi Order
of Sufis, the whirling dervishes, and the many lovers of Mevlana
celebrate and remember his union with his Beloved, ‘Wedding with
Eternity’. This year, the spiritual event was be held at Malvern Town Hall
and everyone was invited. The Australian Intercultural Society
would like to thank the Mevlevi order of Australia for sharing their
special night with the members of the society at large. The
Australian Intercultural Society would also like to thank the
Australian Sufi Music Group for their performance and the Stonington
Council for their support. |
