FOUNDER OF THE DRAGON LINEAGE
Shar Khan is a bridge between worlds — a pilgrim, healer and visionary who has spent his life studying, practicing, and transmitting the ancient sciences of spiritual transformation across the world. His path wove together the disciplines of yoga, mysticism and shamanism into a unified living tradition we call the Dragon Lineage.
In the Amazon, he undertook various initiations with the Shipibo people of Peru and the Kamanawa tribe of Brazil. The shamanic lineage he inherited, however, stems from the tradition of Mestizo shamanism he first learnt in Bolivia under Miguel Kavlin, a student of Don Agustin Rivas Vasquez, who later became Shar Khan’s shamanic Master.
His journeys through the Andes both revealed and expanded his mission. Across its mountains Shar Khan lived for many years, learning from Don Lucas Choque, leader of the Council of the Wise of Tiwanaku, as well as from the native people of the Island of the Sun to whom he came in humility often.
More than a decade before traveling first to India he encountered Babaji Baldev Singh, who has remained all these years as his root Guru and source of refuge. Traveling every year to meet him and his Sangha around the world, this eventually brought him to India where he apprenticed under yogis and sadhus of multiple sampradayas.
Though a student of all religions, Shar Khan’s main scriptural studies have been in the vast school of the Vajrayana, the tantric branch of Mahayana Buddhism. Having trained before in both Dzogchen and Mahamudra, eventually in meeting Khentrul Rinpoche Shar Khan found both his buddhist Guru and lineage, the Kalachakra.
These four masters with their traditions comprise the elemental inheritance from which the Lineage arose. Don Agustin and amazonian shamanism for water; Don Lucas and Andean pantheism for earth; Babaji and Sikhism for air; and Khentrul Rinpoche and the Kalachakra for fire. Their union teaches something simple: that truth is not to be believed, but embodied.
