Another new adventure by James Redfield, author of The Celestine Prophecy and its sequel, "The Tenth Insight." In the remote snow-covered mountains of Tibet lies a community long thought to be nothing but a myth, called Shambala (or Shangra-la). Here in this place is knowledge that has been kept hidden for centuries--and an insight that can have profound impact on the way each of lives our lives.

The search for Shambala begins with the words of a child and the vision of an old friend. These slender clues will lead to Kathmandu, Nepal, and the City of Lhasa, Tibet. The stunning reality about human prayer-energy is about to be revealed, its impact, and what it can accomplish in the face of a struggle between anger and compassion. Read by famous actor, Lavar Burton (Lt. Commander Geordi LaForge of Star Trek: The Next Generation).
