AN EVENING of sacred music and dance will take place in Kendal's parish church hall.
Daniel Dyer and Sadat Malik both follow the Sufi teachings of the Muslim saint and poet, Rumi.
Selections of Rumi's poetry will be read during the evening, interspersed with live music from Latif Bolat and Zeliha Akdan and 'whirling'.
Daniel explained whirling: "Whirling is about creating a communal space where something subtle and indefinable happens to all those present – those turning and those witnessing the turn. Whirling then becomes an act of service; a field of beneficial energy is created which nobody can quite put their finger on, and which somehow isn’t about the whirlers at all."
The evening takes place on Saturday 15 at 7.30pm and forms part of a wider event that runs over the weekend of October 14-16, a gathering called 'Unveiling the Divine: Honouring the Sacred Feminine'.
Those interested in attending the entire weekend gathering can learn more about the speakers and book tickets at the unveilingthedivine.com
