Shabda Kahn

He is also a teacher and performer of Hindustani classical vocal music, Raga, in the Kirana Gharana style, serving as director of the Chisti Sabri School of Music, within the lineage of his teacher Pandit Pran Nath,[1][2] at whose direction this school was formed and placed in Shabda Kahn's care.

He was given responsibility for leading dance and practice meetings in the San Francisco Bay Area, when Pir Moineddin's health left him unable to do so himself.

Shabda Kahn is also a disciple of the illustrious Tibetan master, the 12th Tai Situ Rinpoche, and was deeply influenced by his twenty-two year relationship with the great American mystic Joe Miller.

As Pir, Shabda Kahn directs the leadership circle of the Sufi Ruhaniat International as well as its board of trustees, and serves as spiritual director for the Dances of Universal Peace, worldwide.

Along with Imam Bilal Hyde, Faisal Muqaddam, and Murshid Wali Ali Meyer, Shabda Kahn is co-author of Physicians of the Heart, A Sufi View of the 99 Names of Allah.
