In a recent gathering of seekers, the Royal Ottoman Society introduced Kızıl Elmaya At Süren Aslanlar – often rendered in English as “The Lions Who Run Toward the Red Apple.” The atmosphere was filled with reverence as we listened to the story behind this remarkable volume and its place within our spiritual heritage.
The book was composed in 2011 under the explicit permission and guidance of Sheikh Nazım Hazretleri. He presented the manuscript personally to princes, sultans and other distinguished leaders, offering counsel that reflects a deep well‑spring of spirituality. Though the work was written in Germany, its heart belongs to the Ottoman tradition; it is available in Turkish and English, and a printed edition has been released in Istanbul.
The text gathers insights about forthcoming global events, positioning itself as a timely guide for those who feel called to engage with the world’s unfolding destiny. It is linked thematically to “Golden Apple” (Altın Elmaya Koşan Aslanlar), another work that invites readers to contemplate the signs of the age and to draw strength from prophetic wisdom.
We invite you to explore Kızıl Elmaya At Süren Aslanlar within our digital collection, where its pages can be read and reflected upon in the spirit of Sufi contemplation.
Visit the Royal Ottoman Society Library to access this and other valuable writings.
