The international Dances of Universal Peace (DUP) Caravan was dancing and singing in Konya next to the Mevlana Rumi compound on 26 September 2018 in Konya, Turkey.
This was organised by Jorge A Calero, see www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tdbq7Dsvivg&feature=share
Ralph (in the blue t-shirt) is a DUP leader based in West Yorkshire / England. He was in Konya at this time.
Kalama means prayer - this original dance by Samuel Lewis is often danced at the beginning or end of a Dances of Universal Peace event.
Some uniformed people got suspicious about this bunch of foreigners gathering with drums and guitars near the place where Rumi is buried - finally they agreed that we could pray singing and moving - but no instruments!
