This ceremony of Zikr from the Chistia branch of the Sufi tradition was given to help awaken the human senses to the light of consciousness in nature and the entire manifested cosmos. This light, which the sufis call Nur, points to the Unity of Being, beyond individual names and forms. When the human being awakens to its capacity to contain the consciousness of the cosmos, then it awakens to its original, ecological self and fulfills the purpose of life.
