ESCONDIDO SOHBETS

On January 25th, 2026 Kabir made a call for a new level of commitment and spoke about the possibilities of a “group field” rising to a new level. He suggested the possibility of a six-month period of focused group work, introducing systematic homework of themes and practices, with in person zikrs and conversations on alternate Thursday nights. Camille shared a summary of the eighteen stages of service in a Mevlevi Tekke.

Dear Friends, salaam,

We have recorded these sohbets as a source of foundational teachings for our group here in Escondido and as samples of the kind of teachings that can be expected in our Escondido community.

May it be love and beauty,

Shaikh Kabir
