Query: A Waste.

The book is garbage. The supposed history is false. The "hidden monastery" is little better than an expansion of the centuries old belief in Shambhala. This is a damaging book written by a man with too much time on his hands, not enough intelligence, and a warped idea of the basic concepts of Buddhism (not to mention the total lack of understanding of Tibetan history).Save your cash, and skip this trash.
