The Secret of Shambhala : In Search of the Eleventh Insight
A Favourite of 2, Read by 40, Owned by 38, Reviewed by 3, | Quotes 3
Amazon Description:
Author James Redfield takes readers to the mountains of Tibet in search of the mythical place called Shambhala, otherwise known as Shangri-La. Like his previous bestselling books, Redfield holds the tension between an adventure travel story (in this book, armed Chinese soldiers doggedly pursue him) and divine encounters. Rather than preach his spiritual beliefs, Redfield likes to portray himself as a naive pilgrim, receiving wisdom and insights from the various guides and teachers he meets on his metaphysical journeys.

Shambhala is indeed a paradise, just as it was lovingly portrayed in the famous James Hilton novel Lost Horizon. It is also a spiritual utopia, and Redfield takes great pleasure in pondering the possibilities of living in a culture that is entirely "focused on the life process." Residents explain their lifestyle, which has emerged from a completely spiritual culture, including some rather sensible opinions about technology, parenting, and even genetic testing. Meanwhile, Redfield remains the wide-eyed observer. Those who loved the characters, writing style, and epiphanies in The Celestine Prophecy will not be disappointed with Redfield's latest inspirational portrait of a new world order. --Gail Hudson

The Secret of Shambhala : In Search of the Eleventh Insight

I've read all of Redfield's wonderful collection :)) Each provided insight and felt with purpose. Not long after my having read “The Secret of Shambhala : In Search of the Eleventh Insight” My becoming Shambhala Master unfolded with synchronicity. www.celestinevision.com

“Setting a field for synchronicity is a matter of putting yourself in a particular state of mind. It is easy to think about synchronicity intellectually, but unless you enter the state of mind where your prayer-field will help, all you will do is glimpse the coincidences every once in a while. In some situations that is enough and you will b led forward for a time, but eventually you will lose your direction. The only way to establish a constant flow of synchronicity is to stay in a state where your prayer field keeps this blow moving toward you–a state of conscious alertness.”

“Energy doesn't come to us so much from the things around us–although we can absorb energy directly from some plants and sacred sites. Sacred energy comes from our connection to the divine inside us.”
