Our teacher is known in many lands. We call him Shin. He is known world wide as a spiritual teacher of unimaginable depth and wisdom, He is an artist, a dancer and in His speech He is master of the Word. He is the initiator of spiritual, social and ecological projects in Europe, India, Ausralia and New Zealand.

In India He is recognised as Shin Shiva Svayambhu Mahadev and by this name He is already known to many throughout the world. We experience Him as a being of great purity and love; those of us who work with Him in the Celtic stream of spirituality recognise Him out of our inner perception as the primal One God who was known to the Celts as Lughu Cernunnos.

As humanity and the earth enter a time of great change and the dawning of a new epoch, God walks once more in His creation ~ the God known to the Celtic peoples of all lands as Lugh, Cernunnos, Belenos, Jarnum, Taranis and by many other names, through His Presence and teaching brings a new impulse for the protection of nature, the renewal of the earth and the further development of human beings according to the divine plan.

He brings the ancient yet ever young wisdom of the Celts to new life; the essence of the knowledge and wisdom of the Andouri, who were the shaman priests of the proto-celtic people, came to the Druids in their time and now, through His teaching, it is available to all of us. He brings us to a broader and deeper understanding of that which we still remember of the Celtic Festivals on the Wheel of the Year, and He brings back to us that which has been forgotten. He joins us in the celebration of those ancient rites that resonate in our being and in the folk memory as they bring the worlds together again ~ human and elemental, animal and plant, beings of all worlds join in joyful celebration. In the presence of the ancestors the great truth is revealed in a renewed and appropriate form for a new age. Through His teaching and presence Celtic spirituality has become once more the illumined and living truth that is so much needed in the western world at this time.

Shin gives us the inner, transformational teachings and practices that we call The Hidden Way Through the Holy Forest. He inspires our work and supports our efforts, it is our great privilege to work and learn with Him and to be allowed to teach in His name.

Shin’s school is called “The School of the Ocean of Life”. God and Goddess are this Ocean; everything that is, the earth herself and all the beings that dwell upon and within her exist within this all-encompassing Ocean. Human beings, who also live within this ocean of life must learn once more to value, respect and protect this thousand fold living entity.
From a lecture given by Shin in New Zealand 2006

With Shin we learn through a process of Integral Learning – Intuitive Doing, everything in nature follows this principle of healthy development and human beings too can learn through reading the book of nature.

Min-I.L.I.T is the movement that cares for this impulse.
