Description
Tibet has long been shrouded in mystery for Westerners, who often view it as a land of the unknown and the impossible. The country is home to various types of practitioners of the occult, who are said to possess supernatural powers.
These legends have been accepted as truth by many, despite being at odds with established laws of physics and chemistry. Scholars from more conventional disciplines have often dismissed these stories as fairy tales, but one explorer's firsthand experiences offer a unique perspective on this fascinating subject.
This book is the result of Alexandra David-Neel's observations and examinations of Tibetan mysticism and spirituality, offering an insight into a world that defies common sense and understanding.
