Event Description : Darwesh Delhi presents "Sufi Walk".


About the walk :
In this walk we will be exploring the Sufism- trace its origins and it’s advent in India, the several orders of Sufism and the characteristic differences as well as the Pir and Murid (master and disciple) relationship. We will be exploring the idea of Sufism and much more through walking past some fascinating monuments in the Mehrauli. The walk will end with a theatre performance of Bahadur Shah Zafar II.

In this walk we will be covering the following monuments and ruins in the same sequence -  Hauze-e-Samsi (water tank), Jahaz Mahal (water boat palace from 15th century), Jharna (water fall from 18th century), Khawaja Syed Ghaznavi’s darga (a Sufi Saint from the Qadri order), Kala Mahal (an old khanaqha which is now a Madarassa), Zafar Mahal (Bahadhur Shah Zafar’s summer palace) and Khawaja Qutubuddin Bakhtiyar Kaki’s Tomb (famous Sufi saint from 12th century).

Darwesh is a storytelling organization, dedicated to digging up stories that are hidden in the past, locked in the present and buried within ourselves.
