Fine Art Print : Persian Dervishes
Fine Art Prints from Mary Evans Picture Library
Persian Dervishes
Persian Dervishes. Darwesh or Dervish, as it is known in European languages, refers to members of Sufi Muslim ascetic religious Tariqahs - tariket. Dervishes are involved in the esoteric side of Islam - and dervish orders mostly represent the teachings of various Sufi Saints who have lived over the centuries. In Persian (Iran), the word Darvish, also refers to a mendicant ascetic. The word Dervish means seeker of the truth and the teachings of each Dervish order represent some of the infinite number of ways of being brought to the reality Itself. It is said that the number of ways to reality exceeds the number of grains of sand on the beach. It may be noted that this infinite number of ways to truth can often start at a point beyond the bounds of religion. Date: circa 1910s

EDITORS COMMENTS
Persian Dervishes: Seekers of the Infinite Truth (circa 1910s) This evocative photograph captures a group of Persian Dervishes, also known as Darwesh or Darvish, engaged in their spiritual practices. Dervishes are members of Sufi Muslim ascetic religious Tariqahs, or orders, which represent the esoteric side of Islam. The Persian term Darvish also refers to a mendicant ascetic. The Dervishes in this image are shown with long, flowing hair and various implements, including a club, mace, knife, sword, and other symbols of their spiritual journey. The number of ways to reality, as represented by the teachings of each Dervish order, is said to exceed the number of grains of sand on the beach. This infinite number of ways to truth can often start at a point beyond the bounds of religion. The Sufi tradition, from which Dervishes emerge, emphasizes the importance of love and direct personal experience of the divine. The practices of the Dervishes, including music, dance, and meditation, are intended to help the seeker transcend the ego and reach a state of union with the divine. This photograph offers a glimpse into the mystical world of Persian Dervishes, whose teachings continue to inspire seekers of truth and spiritual enlightenment around the world. The haired figures, with their intense focus and spiritual implements, evoke a sense of otherworldliness and the infinite possibilities of the human spirit.
