You don’t know what can happen from minute to minute, but through the years, one understands that everything happens for a reason.

Now, the dreams I’d had since childhood would make sense. Now, those lights would have a meaning. They were waiting for me, and now I had to make a decision. Would I be ready to handle their message? Would I dare to try a closer contact with them? Would I be brave enough to enter the ‘lost city’? <p><p> My soul had recognized the call. <p> Shambhala was waiting for me. <p> And you—have you felt the call?
