Pir Shabda Kahn received his initial training in the lineage of Pir-o-Murshid Hazrat Inayat Khan beginning in 1969, where he was a disciple of Murshid Samuel Lewis. His teachings are informed by this chain of transmission reaching back though to the 12th century. Shabda is currently the Pir (spiritual director) of the Sufi Ruhaniat International and the director of the Chisti Sabri School of Music. He worked closely with the great American Mystic Joe Miller. He is also a disciple of the illustrious Tibetan Buddhist Master, the 12th Tai Situpa Rinpoche. Shabda spent 24 years developing as a vocalist under the living guidance of the late Pandit Pran Nath, the Master North Indian Classical Vocalist. Shabda brings warmth, humour, and clarity to his efforts to help seekers on their own personal Path to Awakening.
