During a recent gathering in Lefke, Cyprus, Sheikh Nazim Kibrisi honored Ayberk Efendi with the presentation of a kemer—the elevated spiritual belt that signifies a deepening of inner commitment and divine grace. The ceremony was attended by fellow sheikhs, including Sheikh Cemaleddin Efendi, whose presence underscored the communal significance of this moment within our Sufi lineage.
The act of receiving the kemer is more than a symbolic gesture; it marks a milestone on the seeker’s path, reflecting both personal purification and collective responsibility. As the belt was placed around Ayberk Efendi’s waist, participants felt the palpable rise of baraka (blessing), reminding us that spiritual elevation is nurtured through guidance, humility, and steadfast devotion.
We invite all members and friends of the Royal Ottoman Society to reflect on this beautiful transmission of heritage and to support one another in our shared journey toward higher consciousness.
