This book explores the compelling reality underlying historical traditions that have endured from the very threshold of history to the present day, the innumerable accounts of a 'Secret World' concealed deep in the immense wilderness of the Great Himalayan Range. Years ago, on an extended trek into a closed and largely unexplored inner region of the Himalayas, in an isolated valley surrounded by vast snow fields and towering ice peaks, explorer M.G. Hawking chanced on a small village where he encountered remarkable men and women, introduced to him as masters and sages.
This anthology, The Secret World, contains detailed narratives of Hawking's experiences, including first-hand accounts of the psychokinetic abilities he witnessed and in-depth descriptions of his discussions with the extraordinary people he met, revealing the esoteric knowledge and practices that make such extraordinary abilities possible.
Scholars relate that the first extant mention of this legendary secret world appears in the scriptures of the pre-Tibetan Zhang Zhung culture which arose some 4000 years ago on the remote Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Comprehensive references continue through the millennia in numerous esoteric texts: the sacred B'on treaties, manuscripts of the Kalki lore, the Puranas, the earliest texts of the Kalachakra Laghutantra (c. 500 B.C.), in the even older Kalachakra Mulatantra (c. 900 B.C.), and in the ancient wisdom traditions of civilizations throughout the Himalayan regions of Asia and beyond. The Zhang Zhung and Tibetan scriptures refer to the secret world as Shambhala I lam-yig, B'on treaties as Olmolungring, Hindu histories as Aryavarth, Chinese as Hsi Tien, and Russian traditions as Belovoyde.
This book, The Secret World, is an anthology containing comprehensive accounts of Hawking's various experiences and conversations, including first-hand accounts of the psychokinetic abilities he witnessed and in-depth descriptions of his discussions with the masters and sages, revealing the esoteric knowledge and practices that make such extraordinary abilities possible. An incomparable book for anyone interested in expanding their knowledge and personal power, and notably fascinating for anyone interested in exploring the realities behind the ancient legends of Shambhala. 2025 Edition, includes a comprehensive background anthology, e-reader page count 307 (estimated, actual count varies depending on the reading device). Thank you.
