Question The rank of Shiran

Hi there

Has any of you people heard of the rank of Shiran? I know Kancho, Soke, Shihan, Renshi, etc., but our previous instructor called himself Shiran.

Can anybody please tell me if such a rank exists and what it means because I have never read anywhere about it.

Thanks
Jacques
