In 2002, author, filmmaker, and economist Laurence Brahm, inspired by James Hilton's novel Lost Horizon and his own quest for meaning, began his search for Shangri-la. Some say that Shangri-la can be found in sacred Tibet, or maybe in wild Qinghai; others believe it can be found in artistic Yunnan in the southwest of China. The author discovered the spiritual truth that Shangri-la is not a place; rather, it is a state of mind. As Brahm hitchhiked through western China, well off the beaten track, he recorded the interior changes and illuminations he experienced as his consciousness expanded far beyond the everyday cares of his years of urban life in Beijing. The insights of his journey and his meetings with others who searched for their own versions of Shangri-la, helped him to understand that the archetypal goal he sought was actually a state of consciousness. Shangri-la may be found in a cup of caf� latte or yak-butter tea#8212if we search carefully enough and with mindfulness and compassion. Searching for Shangri-la is the first book of the Himalayan Trilogy . The reader will discover the need for fresh economic paradigms that call for compassionate capital, the empowerment of people, and prioritization of the environment. Spirituality can be more powerful than materialism. The need for sustainability has rarely been so beautifully and eloquently defended.

As seen in the New York Times and on Good Morning America-now updated by the author. Imagine a diet that's as easy as "a spoonful of sugar" (or extra-light olive oil) twice a day. A diet that actually reduces appetite and cravings. A diet that's based on a wealth of scientific findings but is simple enough for anyone to stick to. A diet with results that amaze almost everyone who tries it. Psychology professor Seth Roberts asks a simple question most weight-loss experts haven't thought to tackle: What makes people hungry? Based on a new understanding of how the human body regulates hunger, The Shangri-La Diet presents a strikingly simple and surprisingly effective way to lose weight-without giving up favorite foods. Simple and counterintuitive, this extraordinary new diet is changing the way the world thinks about weight loss-one success story at a time.

There are many diet methods today that you can try in order to lose weight and become healthy. Each diet emphasizes taking more of a certain nutrient while taking less of another. Some diets stress on the proper times of the day when you should eat while others give priority on a certain food or foods which you should always prioritize on each meal of the day. The Shangri-La diet is no different from other diets when it comes to prioritizing weight loss and health of the individual man. The founder of this diet even wrote a book on how the diet should be done to further guide people on the right track to weight-loss. His book, together with this eBook, is a good combination for you to get the full picture of Dr. Roberts’ diet plan. This book will discuss the experiences of the founder as well as a personal experience in trying the diet. Certain chapters will also be focusing on foods that should be taken and beginners’ guides in following this diet plan. Pros and Cons of this diet will also be discussed as well as comparisons between the Shangri-La diet and other weight-loss plans. Remember that any weight-loss diet is effective if you commit to it. If you do not pay attention to your health while dieting, not only will be the diet become ineffective, it will also be risky to your health. Good luck with your dieting and always be positive. Note that this book is not a direct substitute for the original work. Rather, it is an overview, review, and commentary of the facts of this diet plan.

Shangri-La730’s Last Flight By: Skot Keller Shangri-La730’s Last Flight iz inspired by Malaysia Flight 370, which went missing on March 8th, 2014; it has never been found and remains a mystery az to what happened to it. The people on the Malaysia plane are assumed to be dead, and the people on Shangri-La 730 do not come away mortally alive either. Rest assured that there iz a happy ending for everyone. When an Australian engineer has an idea that he sends out in a mass email about a theory that will lead to a scientific breakthrough, it makes an alien race called the sigla nervous, and they try to squash the idea by commandeering Shangri-La flight 730 in flight. There are humans, extraterrestrials, az well az angels all involved with what happens aboard the plane. This iz importantly a Christian piece of fiction, not factual or scripturally based. Some questions that are explored are: If there are intelligent extraterrestrials, do they have a relation with GOD like humans have a relation with GOD, and how are their spiritual beliefs related to mankind’s? Their GOD and the Christian GOD must be the same because the Creator created everything. Other questions are considered, e.g.: What iz the purpose of life? What iz eternal life without perfection, and what iz perfection? What happens to good people who have not accepted Jesus, Yeshua, as their Savior, Lord, and Master? Do animals have souls? Hopefully those who read Shangri-La 730’s Last Flight will come away with an uplifting feeling that there iz a perfect plan working its way out in its perfection and a hopeful belief that they can be reunited with all they love in GOD.

"Bishop's engrossing and readable account provides us with a fascinating picture of European myths concerning the Land of the Snows and of the role these myths played in shaping perceptions of the Orient. Bishop's riveting portrait of European conceptions is an important and exceptionally well written contribution to an understanding of Western attitudes toward Tibet and all of East Asia."--Morris Rossabi, author of Khubilai Khan: His Life and Times

In 2001 the Chinese government announced that the precise location of Shangrila�a place that previously had existed only in fiction�had been identified in Zhongdian County, Yunnan. Since then, Sino-Tibetan borderlands in Yunnan, Sichuan, Gansu, Qinghai, and the Tibet Autonomous Region have been the sites of numerous state projects of tourism development and nature conservation, which have in turn attracted throngs of backpackers, environmentalists, and entrepreneurs who seek to experience, protect, and profit from the region�s landscapes. Mapping Shangrila advances a view of landscapes as media of governance, representation, and resistance, examining how they are reshaping cultural economies, political ecologies of resource use, subjectivities, and interethnic relations. Chapters illuminate topics such as the role of Han and Tibetan literary representations of border landscapes in the formation of ethnic identities; the remaking of Chinese national geographic imaginaries through tourism in the Yading Nature Reserve; the role of The Nature Conservancy and other transnational environmental organizations in struggles over culture and environmental governance; the way in which matsutake mushroom and caterpillar fungus commodity chains are reshaping montane landscapes; and contestations over the changing roles of mountain deities and their mediums as both interact with increasingly intensive nature conservation and state-sponsored capitalism.
