The legend of Shangri-La emerged from the Tibetan Buddhist belief
in beyul, or hidden lands. Tibetan prophecies proclaim that the
greatest of these mythical sanctuaries lies at the eastern edge of
the Himalayas, veiled by a colossal waterfall at the heart of the
forbidding Tsangpo gorge. After years of research and
investigation, Buddhist scholar and world-class climber Ian Baker
and his team made worldwide news by reaching the bottom of the
Tsangpo gorge and finding a magnificent 108-foot-high waterfall -
the legendary grail of both Western explorers and Tibetan seekers.
The Heart of the World recounts one of the most captivating stories
of exploration and discovery in recent memory - an extraordinary
journey into one of the wildest and most inaccessible places on
earth, a meditation on our place in nature, and a pilgrimage to the
heart of Tibetan Buddhism.
