The author, explorer M.G. Hawking, spent sixty-two months in the Great Range of the Himalaya, during which time he and his companions experienced three encounters with beings they believe to have been the true "Mountain Goddesses" of ancient Tibetan and Himalayan legends. Experience these extraordinary encounters and the profound wisdom they revealed.
Who—or what—are the "mountain goddesses"? Throughout Nepal, Tibet, Bhutan and the Himalayan regions of India, there have endured extraordinary ancient legends of "extraterrestrial" beings said to have come from "another world" and who, having arrived in an antediluvian era of prehistory, still dwell in a concealed inner region of the immense wilderness of the Himalayas. The earliest known reference to the Himalayan extraterrestrials appears in the scriptures of the 4000 year-old pre-Tibetan Zhang Zhung culture of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, yet further references exist across a number of ancient traditions, including the pre-Buddhist B'on treatises from the Himalayan region of Nepal, and in wisdom traditions throughout Asia.
Are these ubiquitous legends merely myths? Or are they representative of some vaguely remembered reality passed down through generations beyond count? Absent an ember, there can be no smoke; there is a kernel of truth in all such ancient legends and, in light of today's astronomical knowledge, they cannot be easily—or wisely—dismissed. Data from the Hubble Space Telescope has revealed that, rather than the previously estimated 200 billion galaxies in the observable universe, there are more than two trillion galaxies (JPL, Oct 2016). To put this in perspective, if you hold a single grain of sand at arm's length against the night sky, the tiny patch of sky it hides contains more than 100,000 galaxies—not 100,000 stars, 100,000 galaxies. These range in size from dwarf galaxies with a few billion stars to giant galaxies with 100 trillion stars.
The incomprehensible immensity of our universe inspires a deep sense of awe—and inspires as well many questions. What's really out there? Clearly, the number of stars in our universe is beyond the mind of man to number, but what about planets? As of late-2023, NASA had verified the existence of over 5,557 exoplanets, that is, planets orbiting other stars in our Milky Way galaxy. "It's very exciting," said NASA's Dr. William Kinney. "It opens up the universe. Now we know that we're just one of billions and billions of small worlds that are very much like ours. If you extrapolate that to our galaxy as a whole, the calculation based on the Kepler data is that there are around 40 billion planets in the Milky Way alone."
Transcribed directly from the journals of explorer M.G. Hawking's five years in the Himalayan regions of Nepal and Tibet, this book contains detailed narratives of the encounters and conversations the author and his companions had with the actual, legendary Himalayan "mountain" or "celestial goddesses," as the Tibetan term translates. During their second and third encounters, the celestials disclosed profound intelligence about our universe, our planet, and our true nature, wisdom that can greatly assist in understanding ourselves, our world, and our role and power in creating precisely the life we desire.
An incomparable book for anyone interested in expanding their knowledge and personal power, and deeply rewarding for those fascinated with the ancient accounts of extraterrestrial influences. 2025 Edition, e-reader page count 317 (estimated, actual count varies with the reading device used).
