Ekim Bey is a young man that Gurdjieff meets in Constantinople. Bey later accompanies Gurdjieff and his friends on an expedition with Prince Yuri Lubovedsky. In later life, Bey makes of himself a celebrity by using hypnotic tricks and phony psychic powers. Gurdjieff and Bey put together an act like this in Taskhent while waiting for money to be wired to them. Gurdjieff thinks that Bey is in good shape physically, but not so good spiritually.
