Sufi Splendour™ for the enlightened teacher Anandmurthi Gurumaa

The birthday celebrations of enlightened mystic Smt. Anandmurthi Gurumaa was brought in by the presentation of the Sufi Splendour™ to an audience of 1000 disciples visiting the ashram from around the country and internationally. Gurumaa is herself a devotional singer of Sufi songs and Rumi poetry. The performance was conducted in Hindi with Gurumaa’s Hindi transalations of Rumi poetry and songs as the backdrop to some of the dance recitals. Gurumaa was touched with the performances and completed the evening with a talk about whirling, its principles and philosophy, the stillness behind the movement and significance of whirling from a meditator’s viewpoint. The evening concluded with a short silent meditation followed by celebrations.
