How to get to Shambhala?
Dalai Lama XIV on questions about the existence and exact coordinates of Shambhala, answers that the country exists, but not in physical terms as our planet Earth, but on a subtle plane and the entrance there is limited. There is a belief: a person, in order to get to Shambhala, must first find it in himself at the level of opening the heart chakra, which has the same shape of the eight-petalled lotus - then Shambala will call and open for the person in reality.
Legends tell of several portals of entry into the country.

Why Hitler was looking for Shambhala?
Hitler and Shambhala - what links the German Fuhrer with the legendary country? In 1931, the SS of the Third Reich, "Anenerbe", engaged in politics except occult sciences, put forward an expedition to Tibet under the leadership of E. Schaefer. The official version is the study of local features, landscape, climate, but in reality - why did Hitler look for Shambhala? In the version of the Nazis - Shambhala, the concentration of the Higher Dark Forces, when concluding an alliance with them - guaranteed the complete victory of German power and the enslavement of other peoples in the course of the war.
Research of Shambala NKVD
The extraction of ancient knowledge and sacred artifacts was of interest not only to the leadership of the Third Reich, but also to the developing USSR. Civilization of Shambhala supposedly existed in two territories. A friend of N. Roerich is A.N. Barchenko (head of the secret department of the NKVD) put forward the hypothesis that Northern Shambhala could be located on the Kola Peninsula, and Eastern Shambhala in the Himalayas, in the Lhasa area. In the year 1922. expedition: the first under the leadership of N. Roerich went to Tibet, the second with A. Barchenko - to the Kola Peninsula.
The aim of finding North Shambhala is to find the cradle of ancient civilizations - Hyperborea and psychotronic nuclear weapons of the Hyperboreans. All members of the expedition 16 people, except Barchenko completely disappeared. N. Roerich and his expedition were prevented by the war over the Himalayas, which broke out between the English and the Russians. The Germans took advantage of the situation: they equipped several expeditions per year. There is an assumption that the secret technology went to the Germans.
