In short, a Darga is a humble clean place - A dedicated
environment for reaching to Divine Presence.
Sanctuaries, retreats, temples, synagogues, churches, mosques, ashrams,
sweat lodges, so many different ways - all places of worship
where people attempt to become closer to the Creator or become
more in touch with one's own spiritual being or purpose in
creation. Many,
unfortunately, not all, but many, are mostly dedicated to social interaction,
more akin to country club settings than houses of prayer and
worship.
While all providing a sense of belonging and community holy
sanctuaries should be primarily focused on reaching to Divine
Presence.
To the extent these places of worship help you to loose your
identity while providing a method for purifying and cleaning
the heart, they may help you move towards higher awareness,
actualization, spiritual advancement, annihilation, whatever
you wish to call it.
To the
extent these places exist to provide feel good services to
make you believe you are someone important, give you a title
or identity, or pamper you with physical pleasures - pleasures
that cause the ego to be happy, they are false and will
ultimately inhibit your spiritual advancement.
Today, there
are so many places dedicated to dirtiness. Millions of places
promoting material, physical, mental and sexual pleasures -
all of which dull the spiritual senses and dirties the heart.
So more than anything a Darga is a dedicated place that is
clean where those who wish to reach Divine Presences can come
for ten minutes, two hours, one or more days and attempt to
purify their hearts and reach Divine Presence. True
actualization requires a clean heart and good intention.
So when you come to a Darga you are leaving behind the
material world and dedicating what time you are able to spend
at the Darga towards purifying your heart and reaching to Divine
Presence.
The best Darga we have found is located in Northern Cyprus in
a small town called Lefke. If you are able to make the journey
it is well worth every effort and expense.
