Spontaneous song and dance

Spontaneous breaking out in joyful song and dance is a sure sign that the pilgrim is getting close to her goal. Have become fully coherent, that is to say, fully aligned with her goal and coming on-end to it, she becomes fully energised (indeed, manic).

Since she cannot actually end her pilgrimage, the energy diverts and releases itself spontaneously in joyful song (to wit, Halleluiahs) and dance.

The joyful song and dance affect can be reverse engineered. The pilgrim who is depleted of energy can increase her energy level by singing and dancing. Singing and dancing (dancing being used with great skill by Sufis) pumps her up so that she attains coherence, thereby closure (i.e. day or stage trip (hence secondary pilgrimage) ending).

In the everyday world, song and dance are proven aphrodisiacs, in other words, they are self-closure/stopping means that prepare for reality testing (read: copulation) and self-transmission.
