Section 114 Pyramid

This is a sect of Islamic religion based on the Quran, which uses rotating dance to achieve the purpose of practice.

The music is accompanied by strong religious rituals, an elder chants from beginning to end, with a high voice and penetrating power. Their music and dance completely follow a certain religious ritual.

When human consciousness still dominated, the stage was filled with a joyful atmosphere, the impact of the instrument was full of power, and the wildness and handsomeness of Arab men were very full. As the music progressed, these men began to shock Yun Luo. Yun Luo could understand that it was the power of religion, but it was too weird.

They began to show increasingly strong charm. Whether it was dancing or expressions, they showed some feminine colors, showing the feminine beauty in the man's personality that was endured due to social roles. A man dressed in a prince came up and began to rotate rapidly and continuously in one direction for 40 minutes, which is unimaginable to ordinary people. He rotated quickly, and his huge and heavy skirt flew up.

The character slowly began to enter a state of listening to God, as if he had seen the voice of Allah, and a happy expression appeared. The old man who was singing began to completely give up the shaking of his consciousness, and could clearly feel a singing voice from the inner life after the unity of man and nature.

The people dancing around him knelt in a circle, and there was the madness that caused him to cry out in joy when he saw God.

A simple stage, simple costumes, simple musical instruments, and high-pitched but peaceful singing lead people into a world of gods. The beauty allows Yun Luo to experience another color of this brave and warlike nation.

The prophet Muhammad said to Ali: "You belong; you." Hearing this, Ali, ecstatic, began to dance unknowingly. At this time, what else can you do besides dancing? Only dance and joy can flow in the flow.

Mohammed said to Jafar, "You are like both in appearance and in character. You belong to you." Hearing this, Jafar became fascinated and started dancing. At this time, what else can you do besides dancing? Only by dancing and calm can you return to your heart.

Dance used to be a habitual way of life among some more primitive people. People need to drink water when they are thirsty, eat when they are hungry, and take medicine when they are sick. These are still just particle actions in a certain specific situation. Dance is far higher than them, and it is like breathing, vomiting and taking inhalation, never ending.

When you are happy, you should dance, and when you are sad, you should dance; when you come, the clouds will dance; when you go, the clouds will dance; when you fall, the clouds will dance for life, and for death.

Dance was probably a natural phenomenon for everyone, but why did Nalan Shuqi and Yunluo forget it now? Is it because ethics imprisoned the joys and angers of Nalan Shuqi and Yunluo, or civilization suppressed the inner throbbing? So we can only stretch our bodies without any scruples in the world of no one.

Therefore, Sophie's use of dance as a way of practicing is really the greatest respect for nature. So, does it also metaphor for dissatisfaction and contempt for reality?

During the Umayyad dynasty rule in the late 7th and early 8th centuries, the people in power lived in luxury and corruption. The palace struggles continued, and devout Muslim believers began their personal religious practice methods characterized by poverty preservation, asceticism and abstinence due to dissatisfaction with reality. They strictly followed the scriptures, teachings and fulfilled religious lessons.

In the early years of the pious and simple life of the prophet Muhammad and his disciples, they hope to protest in order to seek inner purity and spiritual comfort. They wore thick wool garments, lived a widow, were clear of their hearts and few desires, pondered, recited scriptures and prayed; or wandered around and taught along the way.

He made a living by giving or labour in order to achieve the mysterious realm of "noncerity", "no clouds fall without a master", and "the clouds fall by God". In the late 8th century, that is, the Abbasid Dynasty, with the rise of the translation movement, various philosophical and religious ideas of ancient Greece, Persia, and India infiltrated Islam.

The practice theory of Neoplatonism and Indian yoga had an important influence on Sufi mysticism, causing the Sufis to gradually develop from ascetic practice to mysticism, and appeared in the form of religious theory.

Sophie's path to practice is a combination of extreme suffering and bliss, a collision of water and fire, a tranquility and inaction, and a fierce struggle. She is free from the mainstream world of Sunni and Shiites, and is the mysticism of the Islamic world.

In this way, this is similar to the scholars in the old Chinese country. I think of the seven sages of the Wei and Jin Dynasties, advocated the study of Laozi and Zhuang, advocated metaphysics, and did not follow the etiquette. They gathered under the bamboo forest and lie beside the guqin, with fine wine and light sounds, and could talk a lot. They were all for the purpose of avoiding the world. The difference was that Sophie cultivated himself with tranquility and inaction to seek peace in the mind and spirituality.

However, the seven sages of the bamboo forest satirized the hypocrisy of the Sima court with their appreciation, laughter, anger and scolding, and somehow used alcohol to numb themselves to get rid of the pain and depression of being unsatisfied in the official career.

Because of deep pain, Ji Kang had the ancient song "Guangling San"; because of his dissatisfaction with reality, Sophie sought transcendence through dance, which was Sophie's dance.

The best place to watch Sophie dance performance is the Gori Palace next to the Azhar Mosque opposite Hariri Market in the center of Cairo. It is called a "palace", but in fact it is just a gray three-story building. Against the backdrop of the magnificent mosque next to it, this "palace" is a bit cold and bitter.

Many people say that finding the Goli Palace is not only a physical job, but also a technical job. Because it is difficult to find it, I think it is difficult because the preconceived understanding of the word "gong" is a problem. Using a microscope to find the Himalayas, do you think you will find it for thousands of years?

The Sophie dance performance is free, with a total of 3 performances a week, Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday, and the entrance begins at 6:30 pm. The official performance usually starts at 8 o'clock and lasts about 90 minutes. The performance location: the Gori Palace next to the Al-Azihal Mosque opposite the Hariri Market in Cairo (Ghu Day).

After waking up in the morning, Yunluo kept his eyes closed and lay quietly. He seemed to hear the sound of river water flowing, the sound of water birds flapping the water surface, and the joyful singing of people. Blows of dry hot wind mixed with the smell of fresh earth and the smell of fresh grass leaves came to his face.

Is this the air from more than three thousand years ago? Is this the Nile River?

When Yun Luo opened his eyes with a nervous mood, he looked up and saw a blue sky. It was so pure blue, and a few white clouds like willow catkins were floating faintly. Yun Luo slowly stood up and looked up, the sun rose up on the horizon. The earth was far and wide in the morning mist.

The Nile River, which brought eternal life to Egypt, shines with light under the golden rising sun. The dark green river water ripples with ripples. The banks are covered with triangular shapes, and the tops of the stems spread into umbrella-shaped green papyrus.

An excitement surged in my heart for no reason. The birthplace of ancient civilization more than 3,000 years ago was right here, right in front of Yun Luo. Yun Luo was in the streets three thousand years ago and passed through the crowd. Memphis City was much larger than Yun Luo imagined, and tall date palm trees and palm trees were planted along both sides of the street. People of different skin colors and clothing were walking on the street.

Libyans, Nubians, Canaanites, Amuru, Cretans, Cypriots. Different voices and words, merchants are smiling and selling their goods, Eastern fabrics, Hittite honey, Cretan pottery, Lebanese glass bottles. Everything is available.

In Memphis, the rich and poor houses seem to be undivided. Below the tall buildings are small houses made of dry bricks. In the alley next to the wide garden villa, people and animals can also be seen. Camels and donkeys carrying heavy objects are the most common livestock here. The city is filled with rage, bargaining and laughter.

Travel, especially in Egypt, is simply equated with chasing ancient and visiting the source. When Yunluo woke up from a dream three thousand years ago, Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo were preparing to visit the originator of the pyramid, the Zuser Steppyramid, and the capital Memphis, which just made Yunluo lost in his dream.

The pyramid of the stairs is in Segara, near Memphis, far from the city. Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo left the hotel early in the morning and carried their bags to Aswan. When they went out, they followed the map and walked to Elharam Station to take the subway. At Sadat Station, transfer to Line 1 to go north and go to Mubarak to get off.

The subway station is Cairo Railway Station, which is Rames Rames Station. The train station is not big. Take the train south. The third-class cabins are full of hard plastic seats. The Egyptians are full of Egyptians, and they are looking around and standing in the middle with a smile. Get off at the town Badra Shouin Station and walk two kilometers westward to Memphis.

Memphis has been the capital of Egypt since the unification of the First Dynasty after the reunification of the upper and lower Egypt to the eleventh Dynasty. It has been the capital of Egypt for thousands of years. It has been gone for thousands of years. Now there is only an open-air ruins park here, located in a ruined village called Mitrashina.

The ticket is 35 GBP. There are two treasures in the garden. One is the Ramses II statue lying in the two-story hall. This statue is about 14 meters high, carved from a whole piece of limestone, which is extremely delicate and huge. In an earthquake, the statue's legs and left hand were broken.

Therefore, the statue can only lie horizontally on the ground in the museum hall; the other twin brother of the statue is also standing in the square of the Mahattatram railway station in the city of Cairo. Ramses II, as the second pharaoh of the Twentieth Dynasty, was good at fighting, and was running around and strong.

The old man lived in his nineties in one breath, and had not yet fulfilled his fate and was very happy. He was full of monuments everywhere and erected monuments to praise him. Another is the second largest sphinx of Egypt in the garden. It is more than 4 meters high and is carved from a whole piece of alabaster weighing more than 80 tons.

Some say that he represents Amenophis II, and some say that she is based on the prototype of the Queen of Egypt, or is it written on the note card fairly and clearly: the Sphinx in Memphis. Another granite statue of Ramses II stands in the garden.

These emperor monuments were dug from nearby fields. The real ancient city has been buried deep underground in the village after several Muslims invasions and the erosion of the Nile River, nourishing green vegetable seedlings. Because the water level close to the Nile River is too high, it is temporarily impossible to dig on a large scale.

Nalan Shuqi and Yunluo could only see the leopard meditating on the prosperity of the past through these broken limbs. If this place was not on the way, it would be very recommended to come.

If you walk west along the rural dirt road from Memphis, you can walk to Segara for five miles. You can also choose to take a minibus that connects to the village. Segara is named after "Memphis' God of Death", and both princes and nobles are buried here, which is equivalent to Babao Mountain, the imperial tomb in the western suburbs of Yunluochao. The Zusel Step Pyramid is located in the desert about three kilometers northwest of Segara.

Walk northwards less than two kilometers along a canal, turn left by the Ambaar Miyas Monastery, and climb up a sand dune to the scenic area Imhotepmu Séum & Saqqara, with tickets of 60 GBP. To date, Egypt has discovered 110 large and small pyramids, not all of which are buried, some are just for sacrifice.

The pyramid of Zusel is by far the oldest, and it was only excavated by archaeologists in 1924 based on the clue of the Serabiyum Temple. Who knows how many surprises are buried in the vast yellow sand on the west coast.

At the entrance is a huge yellow-brown wall. Through the spectacular multi-column hall, you can reach the large courtyard on the south side. This place is the place where the emperor exercises and exercises. In ancient times, a slogan "Exercise for an hour a day" was erected in the west, and a slogan "Life for 50 years in healthy life". The emperor took the cabinet ministers to play Tai Chi and run in the courtyard.

The leadership team is full of vitality as the people, and the head of state will never die. The pyramid on the north side of the square is divided into six layers and a total of 60 meters. Although it is not as big as the Khufu, it is never too spectacular. There are not many tourists here, and the distant desert is even more majestic.
