The tekke is adorned with carpets, candles, and other symbolic objects that set the ambiance for the event. The audience gathers in anticipation, eager to witness the profound and mystical experience that is about to unfold.

The dervishes enter the hall in a procession, creating an ethereal atmosphere as they slowly take their places.
