When James Redfield wrote his phenomenal international bestsellerThe Celestine Prophecy, millions of readers discovered life-affirming truths about synchronicity, intuition and personal destiny. Here the inspiring journey continues, carrying us to a new adventure and new spiritual truths that are emerging in human awareness. In the remote snow-covered mountains near Tibet lies a community long thought to be a mere myth called Shambhala, or Shangri-La. Here, in this place, is a knowledge that has been hidden for centuries, and an insight that can have a profound impact on the way we live our lives. Your search for Shambhala begins with the words of a child and the vision of an old friend - slender clues which will lead you to Kathmandu and then to Lhasa, Tibet. Amid blowing snows and perilous mountains, you will meet the members of the secret Tibetan sect that guards mysterious legends - the verbal instructions handed down for centuries that describe the inner changes one must undergo before entering Shambhala.
