Rumi̇ Sema Ceremony Konya
The “Mevlevi Ayinleri Topluluğu” (Community of Mevlevi Ayinleri) within the Irfan Civilization Research Center (IRFA) performs the sema ritual. Sema’ means hearing or sensing in the dictionary. In Mevlevi literature, sema is a type of voluntary worship performed with rhythm and music, performed by spinning and turning from right to left around the heart. The purpose and intention of sema, which is the symbolic dhikr of Mevlevi, is to rise spiritually and cover distance on the path to Allah (cc). Sema’ was performed during the time of Hazrat-i Mevlana as a religious and mystical enthusiasm without adhering to a certain order. It is narrated that Hazrat Pir, who turned sema into a form of worship, started sema after meeting with Shams-i Tabrizi. The semahane located in the Irfan Civilization Research Center (IRFA) attracts the attention of visitors with its neo-classical architectural feature, inspired by the Mevlevi lodges in Turkey and various parts of the world.

Traveller reviews
It was wonderful to observe this spiritual ceremony by sincere devotees, the master and the disciples alike. Serene and touching. It is not often one participates in something not materialistic.
The Cultural Centre is modern and welcoming. Probably seats about 120-150 persons. The ceremony itself is very spiritual. Truly an amazing experience. Definitely worth the trip to Konya
The Ticket arrived to email in seconds, we had no problems visiting the show. Thank you for your good job!
It was a truly spiritual experience. We were not really prepared for the impact and the emotional awareness that came with the experience.
It was interesting to see. Although it started at 8pm, groups of people, some quite large in number, kept entering even up to 8.30pm. It was very distracting and felt disrespectful.
It was amazing experience. I am not Muslim but it was incredible event. An hour spent in different world.
A fantastic experience of a spiritual ceremony. This was the highlight of our trip to Konya and gave us impressions that were very authentic.
An experience you absolutely must do, especially if the pilot is Izzet and the co-pilot is Ibrahim. They are very good, professional, competent, and friendly. No detail is left to chance and the organization is perfect. I strongly recommend the experience with this flight company.
