February 2010 Events

Sufi Meditation, Healing, & Whirling

Please join us for our Sufi Meditation and Healing sessions on Thursday evenings. Leonardo Stoute "Bapak Waleed" will be leading a traditional Sufi Zikr circle and mediation session with a special performance of the Whirling Dervish dance in the traditional style of the poet Rumi, an important aspect of many Sufi orders. The Zikr, or remembrance, is a ceremony of healing for all those present and even those who only intended to come. Guests are asked to close their eyes, focus on their breath, and join in the chanting if they like. The evening includes a group invocation of blessings and peace followed by a short discussion. Come enjoy the relaxing experience. Refreshments will be provided. All are welcome, including famlies and children. On Thursdays: Doors will be open at 7:30pm, and the event will begin around 8. Donations appreciated
