The Sufi path involves direct experience of God's love and light, systematized by spiritual masters in the 12th century. Followers are initiated into orders, worshipping together under the master's guidance. Dhikr, a form of devotional worship, involves rhythmic chanting, often accompanied by music and dance. The Whirling Dervishes, inspired by Rumi, revolve in a circle, symbolizing creation's return to the One Creator.
