Music, Zekr and Sama

OUR ACTIVITIES

Music

The music originates from the ancient modes of Persian classical music, which are said to have been passed down verbally or from “heart to heart” for many centuries. Each mode represents a distinct pure emotion mainly extracted into music at times of deep yearning, fervent love, and spiritual ascent. Zendeh Delan® combines these ancient modes of music with modern beats and melodies to create unique forms of zekr.

Zekr

Zekr (dhikr) harmonizes the human instrument to the tune of God’s remembrance, to enable closeness to God. If done correctly, zekr frees the seeker from daily distractions, thoughts, fears, and worries by uniting every aspect of their being into the remembrance of God. As taught by Sufi Master, Hazrat Salaheddin Ali Nader Angha “Zekr is the remembrance of the glorious, unique, everlasting life, the Beloved.”

Sama

Sama is the outward manifestation of the spiritual core, where the seeker truly hears, sees and fully experiences the Beloved’s call, not with the physical senses, but from within. The motions of sama show the constant journey, and the constant movement is a reminder of the internal search. The focus and concentration on the movement , music, and words flow from the heart of each individual into the various mediums of the physical faculties, not to present music, nor to perform a dance, but to declare what has been heard from within, “the Beloved’s call of love.”
