Sufitour 2007

Sufitour 2007

10 – 22 December 2007

During this tour we visit different graves of holy Sufiman and women. We listen to their stories and pray beside the graves.

The tour will bring us in contact with the Vahted - al Vucut, the science of the philosophy of unity. One of the wellknown people who represented this, was the spanish mystic: Ibn I Arabi, born in the 13th century in Spain.

Although the running of of this tour is fixed, there will be surprises. In the orient we call it suhurat. That means, we flow with those things which happens by themselves.

May be sometimes we will be also leaded by the weather.

The tour serves also to get known to the sufi part of the Islam, which is impressed by tolerance,nund the science of love.

Histories, legends, anecdotes, theories, practic work like Zikir and Meditation with Mantra, dances of praying, music and music therapy will accompany us.

There will be also some seminars and sohbet during the tour.

In the evenings we will have in different places Tümata concerts.

We search for good and originel hotels and pensions in this tour. The standard is normally good. But sometimes, specially in Konya it will be very crowded, we have to choose simple places. But our friends in the places are very sensitive with choosing the hotels for us.

Normaly dush, towel and bedclothes are existing. But if there are some privat invitations it will be good if you have your own towel.
