Sensei of Shambala. Book I

The highest meaning of each individual's life is the cognitionof his soul. Everything else is temporary and transient, just dust and illusion.

At first glance, the story of a Youth meeting Wisdom seems naïve. But this ordinary perception is just an illusionary barrier, a skillful trap set by our Ego on the path to the perfect Spirit. The one who will overcome it, will discover more for himself than he would dare hope for. Hail to the Winner – because Knowledge will be his prize, because the Truth will be revealed to him.

This prompted her to rethink her life and the search for answers to eternal questions: "Why does a person live, what is the meaning of life? Who am I really? Why are most people on earth - believers? After all, if they believe, that means they are hoping for something. How do the great ones achieve inner immortality? What is hidden behind the concept of the essence of Human?"
 
The unbridled energy of her inner search leads her to a meeting with an unusual, highly erudite man, a master of martial arts and a very mysterious Personality - Sensei.
