In 2014, Shiva founded the ashram Casa de los Cuatro Rumbos (House of the Four Directions), near the city of Atlixco. There he teaches courses and workshops, and hosts spiritual retreats.

In the 1990s he published detailed descriptions of the major mystical traditions of the world, the synthesis of which he called Mysticosofia. His aim was to show that all major mystical traditions seek, through various practices, to help a person advance via two major routes: the awakening of spiritual consciousness, and the creation of the body of light.

Since 1986, Shiva has written several books, taught several courses, and spoken in conferences and retreats, to publicize the difference between the "sleeping state" and the "awakened state", and the practices that lead from one to the other. He has also described the path and practices that can lead an awakened person to have superior mystical experiences.

During his youth he engaged in several spiritual practices, which led him to have mystical experiences that culminated with the experience of oneness with the absolute in November 1985. From then on he began to write and teach about spiritual matters.

On November 11, 1985 Shiva had his first experience of oneness with the absolute, in which "the whole universe disappeared, and only the infinite and eternal Absolute remained. There was no residue of individuality to realize it".

For months he struggled to remain in a state that he recognized as the one Jiddu Krishnamurti called "awareness" and which George Gurdjieff described as "self-remembering". Because of these efforts, in early 1983, Shiva permanently became what he would later describe as an "awakened man," that is, a person who is continually "simultaneously aware of himself and of his surroundings", in contrast with the common person or "sleeping man", which according to Shiva lives in a "state of psychic sleep".

In July 1980, he had his first mystical experience, which he described as a contact with his higher self, and which was accompanied by "a powerful sense of timelessness or eternity."

In 1979, Shiva began to meditate. He first used a technique to purge the mind, which requires being attentive and passively observant of the flow of thoughts, feelings and emotions that appear in one's stream of consciousness. Doing this ultimately leads to their disappearing, leaving the mind in a clear and quiet state.

On July 7, 1977, Shiva enrolled in a course of Tibetan yoga taught by Pedro Espinosa de los Monteros, who became his spiritual teacher.
