Path of Love
In Path of Love, Cyrus beautifully depicts the conjunction of a headless Sufi man whirling in love under the moon after seeing God in his human beloved while Michelangelo's famous hands reach across the sky, overlaying the moon. The Sufi man represents Sheikh Sanan who was overpowered by the Tarsa girl's charming beauty, through which he experienced that God (truth) does not only exist in churches, temples or holy lands. God exists in everything and is everywhere. We are all God. The Sufi man transforms and rejoices when he sees God in the Tarsa girl, realizing he doesn't need to travel any further. The real journey is deep within oneself and is represented by his sama dance. The moon reflects this truth and wisdom while Michelangelo's hands from The Creation of Adam represent where God and men meet each other.
