“Dancing is liberating. It can be therapeutic, or a rite of passage: a state of trance can be obtained through dance. The animal expression of our instincts. Abandoned body and rhythm. By dancing, whirling in concentric circles in which they become lost, cancelling out the centrifugal and centripetal forces,
Sufis reach a degree of concentration which allows them to forget weight and to access other mental heights. To knowledge that the mind alone is not able to reach. Therefore they can, to parody Rimbaud, “see what man is unable to see.” There are three of them. A magic number which signifies perfect balance.” S. Njami
