The graduation opened by its chairman MR. NIESBY SABAKINGKIN, who is Secretary General of IBETADO and Secretary General of LIPPI (The Foundation of Indonesian Paranormal Brotherhood).

The ritual Jamasan (soul cleansing) was led by MR. Muhammad Mudzakir – the Gurur Besar (besar = great) who is also a psychic, with his famous name Mas Bakir (Mas = brother). On top of a big brazier with burning charcoals, 4 big iron knives were burnt until became red due to very high temperature.

Following the Javanese spells, said by Guru Besar and repeated by the graduates, all the graduates licked the hot metal 8 times, the first graduates licked the burning knife 15 times. After that they were given some fruit, among other to test that their tongues were all right. Then, they drank a cup of water, as a sign of absorbing the teaching.
