Introducing Khasa Shamanism of Nepal
The Ancient and Profound Shamanism of Nepal Himalayas. Namaste
About Bhola
My name is Bhola Banstola, I am a Jhankri shaman from Nepal with an extended family history and practice of shamanism.
Welcome to my website, where I hope to help people interested in traditional shamanism understand my Path and invite them to join my courses.
My greatest desire is to preserve and share the shamanism of my tradition, keep it alive and pass it on to new generations of practitioners.
I also support Nepali traditional lineage education (param-para) and culture. Through my work and the kindness of others I help poor children to start their education. I believe that shamans should always serve their communities in the best way they can.
Events
Bhola teaches traditional Himalayan shamanic practices around the world through in-person retreats, residental pilgrimages in Nepal and virtually through Zoom. He shares his knowledge and skills with both beginners and advanced practitioners.
Nepal Shamanic Pilgrimages
A pilgrimage is a journey to sacred places to renew and recharge spiritually, to meet and learn from a teacher and to seek healing in far-off places. These are the most common forms of pilgrimage in Nepal. Each day of these experiential pilgrimages will offer new revelations and opportunities to explore the richness of Nepali culture and practice, presented in morning, afternoon and night sessions with lunch and dinner breaks.
In person trainings and retreats
The trainings are shared by Bhola, a long lineage Nepali Shaman with many years of experience in providing knowledge and skills to beginners and experienced practitioners. Our weekends, and our short and long retreats, will introduce you to the traditional ways of the Nepali Shamanic Path. Incorporating Shamanic active journeying (narratives) by playing the drum and singing the sacred songs is part of our earliest ancestors’ enormously powerful techniques to access wisdom beyond the range of ordinary senses.
