HEART OF THE WORLD: A Journey To Tibet's Lost Paradise

The Heart of the World recounts an extraordinary journey into one of the most inaccessible places on earth, and a pilgrimage to the heart of Tibetan Buddhism. Tibetan prophecies proclaim that the greatest of beyul, or mystical sanctuaries, lies at the eastern edge of the Himalayas, veiled by a colossal waterfall in the forbidding Tsangpo gorge. After years of investigation, world-class climber and Buddhist scholar Ian Baker and his National Geographic sponsored team made worldwide news by finding a magnificent 108-foot-high waterfall the legendary grail of both Western explorers and Tibetan pilgrims.
