| Summary: | From ancient times, art has been a tangible expression of our deepest beliefs, reflecting human spirituality and identity, often intertwined with religion. Sacred art transcends mere emotional responses, using simplicity and essentialism to hint at the ineffable. It mirrors a higher reality, symbolizing the divine in earthly forms and inviting contemplation beyond the material world. Through allegory, sacred art reconnects with the essence of creation, revealing the symbolic nature of existence and freeing the human spirit from worldly attachments. This study, employs library research and a descriptive-analytical approach with an intertextual perspective to explore the roots of sacred art in the Yaresan region, focusing on traditionalist views, particularly those of Seyyed Hossein Nasr. In Yaresan sacred practice, Sema and music play central roles. Sema involves a collective circular dance during the "jam" ceremony, accompanied by prayers and music. Music serves as a channel for conveying spiritual truths, with the tanbur as the primary instrument in both Sema and other religious rituals. |
