These stunning photos depict dervishes from the Kasnazani Tariqa order performing Sama, the unique mystic practice of dancing in whirls, at a ceremony in Iran's Kurdistan province. Dervishes perform Sama with the purpose of spiritual ascent in their journey to perfection. The annual ceremonies last for a month, with rituals held at a different village in Kurdistan each day.
