Publisher's summary

The inspiring journey of The Celestine Prophecy and The Tenth Insight continues, carrying us to a new adventure and new spiritual truths that are now 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 space, is knowledge that has been kept hidden for centuries - and an insight that can have profound impact on the way each of us lives our lives. Your search for Shambhala begins with the words of a child and the vision of an old friend. Those slender clues and a powerful synchronicity will lead to Kathmandu, Nepal, and then to Lhasa, Tibet. You will pass through regions where anger and compassion struggle for ascendancy, and arrive at a place where the stunning reality about human prayer-energy is about to be revealed.

Are you learning or just listening?

It’s true to an ear that has no control over their energy, audible would be horrid…However; for those of us who learn from these books; never noticed. Didn’t notice until I read reviews…. Build your energies Poet 🙏🌟🙏

Wake Up

I have read 2 other titles by James Redfield. This one may seem the same but it actually picks up where the Eleventh Insight left off. He tells a story but at the same time, he is giving you information that is very beneficial. I recommend his books if you are looking for a path towards spirituality. The only thing I did not like is the quality of the audio, its a little scratchy. Other than that, it is a book worth listening to and reading. I will probably still buy the book so that I can outline some things that are good to remember and included in my daily life.

great story, terrible audio

the audio is scratchy and muffled with the background sounds making it additionally difficult to hear at times. this is so disappointing because I am completely captivated by this series! as difficult as it was too listen, the story is still just as fantastic as The Celestine Prophecy and The Tenth Insight.

The audio is terrible but the content is amazing!

I really loved every moment of the content. the recording is just terrible and needs to be changed.

I own all four titles in this series and the other three are perfect.

Great book, lousy sound

I have always loved the James Redfield books and decided to buy the Audible versions. This one sounded like mic was broken…very muffled.

Inspiring

The Journey from Celestine Prophecy The 10th Insight( Wish it was in Audio but totally worth the read), The Secrets of Shambala to the 12th Insight is nothing short of Life Changing .
It explains Why we are here and who we are through a wonderful Journey/Story ,and so much more .Explained in a fashion you can't help but absorb each and every Explanation/meaning.
It has forever changed me into the person I had met many times thoughout my life but in only brief glimpes, Now I can be.... Just ..Me

Thank you James Redfield for sharing this so beautifully..My eyes are forever open now.

Sorry Audible but such a wonderful book should have been made with better sound quality .
My only complaint..
