Come, Come, Whoever You Are
Come, traveller of the unseen.
Come, seeker of silence, lover of the Beloved.
Leave the noise of the world behind —
for in Konya, the air itself chants the Name.
Here, where Rumi still turns in the sama of eternity,
and Shams burns like a hidden sun,
we gather in the final ten nights of Ramadan —
nights when the soul remembers its origin,
and the Friend draws near in the hush of the unseen.
A Sacred Invitation
Experience the blessed nights of Laylatul Qadr through guided Muraqabah (Sufi meditation), group practice, and companionship in sacred presence.
Sessions are held within the luminous spaces near the tombs of Rumi and Shams, where centuries of devotion continue to inspire hearts.
The Blessed Nights
This is a journey of ten nights,
each a step closer to the Hidden Light.
Yet for those whom time restrains,
a five-night path remains open —
so long as it embraces the 27th night,
when the heavens unfold,
and every breath is a prayer.
Where Silence Speaks and Hearts Remember
Here, in the stillness surrounding the tombs of Mevlana Rumi and Shams Tabrizi, the air trembles with remembrance.
Each night, we sit together in Muraqabah — Sufi meditation of the heart — listening not with our ears, but with the soul’s quiet knowing.
It is not a retreat from the world, but a return to the One who moves through it.
For the Seekers of Light
This retreat is a call to all seekers, lovers, and wanderers upon the Sufi path —
to those who hear Rumi’s words as a mirror of their own longing,
to those who seek presence over performance, and stillness over speech.
No experience is required — only sincerity, and a heart willing to bow in love.
The Hidden Garden
Konya is not a place — it is a mirror.
It reflects what is unseen within you.
Here, under the gaze of the beloved, the soul remembers what it has always known:
that love is not something we find — it is what we are.
Come.
Not to seek.
But to remember.
