Dervishes

Serene and peaceful 
Dervishes dance in white gown..
whirling without break

Is that where the term “whirling dervishes” comes from Goutam? I have a lovely visual in my mind right now. ❤

  Hi Colleen….Yes, this is how the term originated. Its amazing how they can continue to whirl in a trance-like state for long periods.
