The Modern Crone: Season 1: The 21st Century Shaman: Miguel Kavlin

21ST CENTURY SHAMAN WITH SHAMANIC TEACHER, SPACE HOLDER AND MEDICINE MAN, MIGUEL KAVLINMiguel A. Kavlin was born in la Paz, Bolivia, where he lived until he was 17 years old. Upon finding himself in the United States to study at university, he started to have unusual experiences which eventually led him to become interested in Native American culture and religion. Miguel’s spiritual path has led him to studying and participating in various ceremonies with Beautiful Painted Arrow (Joseph Rael), leading him to eventually inherit the title of Chief for both the Sun-Moon Dance and the Long Dance with sacred Cactus of the Andes; training with Sifu Kenny Gong, an international martial arts teacher and traditional Chinese doctor, in the arts of Shing-Yi Chuan and Pa-Kua. This training has provided Miguel with a very serious grounding to all his spiritual practices. Eventually Miguel’s path led him to an apprenticeship with Don Agustin Rivas Vazques in his jungle camp. Now Miguel is the only foreigner authorized by Don Agustin to conduct his ceremonies outside the Peruvian Amazon. Since 1995 Miguel has also been apprenticing with Don Hector Aguanari and Don Jose Coral. Amongst his many incredible achievements Miguel has completed graduate studies in Anthropology and Philosophy; has set up a non-profit agency that works with NYC’s public school students in multicultural awareness, violence-prevention, adolescent rites of passage, and various other educational programs; a three-part Video-Documentary series on Peruvian Amazon Shamanism, entitled Spirits of the Rainforest featuring interviews with Don Agustin Rivas Vazques and the Paintings of Don Pablo Amaringo. Miguel started the Sacharuna Community in Bolivia,  25 years ago, dedicated to help people heal disorders and learn to serve using practices and teachings from the Amazonian Indian, native North American, Buddhist, Sikh and Judeo Chrisitian traditions and teachings.Miguel’s deepest prayer, to truly be of service to the collective in the most profound ways possible.Join us as we explore the truth of ‘the Hollow Bone’ state, the vibrational nature of being, the importance of devotional inner practice and the ‘Principle’ Idea’ of all things.
