Canvas Print : Seated Egyptian Dervish
Canvas Prints from Mary Evans Picture Library
Seated Egyptian Dervish
North African (Egyptian) Dervish seated. Dervish or Darvesh in Persian usually refers to a person who is a seeker of the truth i.e. universal truth. Within the Islamic tradition such people are often known as Sufis, Sufi, people of the way or mystics and they come from every strata of society; here monetary considerations are inapplicable since the situation is that of a deep personal inner spiritual longing. There are in existence a number Sufi Orders many of which bear the name of a great saint and within these orders various practices have continued over the centuries in order to assist generations of seekers whose desire is to be brought to reality itself. It is said that the number of ways to reality/truth exceeds the number of grains of sand on the beach. It may be noted that this infinite number of ways to truth can even start at a point beyond religion, ultimately the truth is an univeral quality."

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph depicts a North African Egyptian Dervish in a state of deep contemplation and spiritual introspection. The term 'Dervish' or 'Darvesh' in Persian traditionally refers to a person on a quest for universal truth, often identified with Sufis or mystics within the Islamic faith. Sufis come from all walks of life, transcending societal boundaries, as their pursuit is rooted in an inner, personal longing for spiritual enlightenment. Throughout history, various Sufi Orders have emerged, each preserving unique practices to guide seekers on their journey towards reality itself. The infinite number of paths to truth is a testament to the depth and richness of this spiritual tradition. Although the origins of Sufism can be traced back to the Islamic world, it is essential to note that the quest for truth can extend beyond religious boundaries. This Egyptian Dervish, with his serene expression and traditional attire, embodies the timeless essence of the spiritual journey. Seated in a meditative posture, he invites us to reflect on the universal human quest for truth and the myriad ways it can be sought and discovered. The intricate patterns on his garments symbolize the complex tapestry of esoteric wisdom and the diverse tariqahs or spiritual paths that have evolved over centuries to help guide seekers on their spiritual journey.
