The model of mass education in Alevi-Bektashi's sources [Alevi Bektaşi kaynaklarinda insan yetiştirme modeli]

Abstract

We often encounter the chapters that organize the sheikh's relationship with their followers in sources of traditional Alewism. For example, there is in one of the classic Alewi's works "Buyruk" a passage: "If Talip's Pir is away him, he must be connected to someone else as a proxy. After many years if his Pir comes back he would have to swear allegiance to him. If he denies his ancestor's Pir, he becomes a disbeliever. He would have upset the balance ... It is possible to come across such statements in classical works. The main theme of this text is the education of people. The cause of the prominence of these issues in the Alewi Bektashi texts is that it has a mystical structure such as Vefailik, Haydarilik, Yesevilik, Kalenderilik. When is analyzed the basic classical Alewish Bektashi's texts, it is seen that the three recommended ways for the training of individuals. Those are internal, horizontal and vertical models. And it is seen that Talips who come the "path" were educated with this three-dimensional training system. In our research we will use in general text analysis methods. So we will try to identify this issue in Alewi's Works as Buyruks, Erkanname, Makalat, Fatiha Commetary, Besmele Commentary.
