Hand Μade Leather Orthodox Monastic Belt.

Size : 5cm x 150cm


In the Eastern Orthodox tradition at the blessing of a Monk or Nun, a leather belt, made of the skin of a dead animal signifying deadness to the world is fastened about the loins. This girding of the loins also signifies bodily mortification and readiness for the service of Christ and His return (Luke 12:35-37). The buckle of the belt has the symbols of the Crucifixion on it to remind the new monk of his daily Crucifixion. The follow words are spoken by the Abbot: “Our brother is gird about his loins with the power of truth, for mortification of body and renewal of spirit, and for courage and caution.”
