In Tibet, there are legends about the Land of Immortality - a hidden valley hidden on the slopes of Mount Kanchenjunga. This valley exists in a different reality, where there is no death, illness and suffering, but at the same time it is located in our world and you do not need to die to get there. In the early 1960s, the charismatic Lama Tulshuk Lingpa set out with 300 followers in search of the hidden valley. This book is a fascinating account of his expedition. Thomas K. Shore spent years of painstaking research to tell the incredible and gripping life story of Tulshuk Lingpa. The author talked with the participants of that expedition, wandered around the Himalayas, studied the culture and life of the peoples living there, plunged into their mythology and tried to understand the intricacies of the ideas of the indigenous inhabitants of Tibet.
