Red Shambhala By Andrei Znamenski




A Reflective Review By Andrea R. Garrison – Online With Andrea

Red Shambhala Magic, Prophecy and Geopolitics in the Heart of Asia by Dr. Andrei Znamenski is a book that will keep you on the edge of your seat. It reads like a thrilling page turning novel yet the events in this book are all true. I am thankful for the list of major characters because I referred to it a couple of times when I was reading the book.. There are so many fascinating characters that are featured in Red Shambhala that covered quite a span from the 1800’s – 1960. The list of major characters include Alexander Barchenko, Gleb Bokii, Ja-Lama, Nicholas Roerich, Helena Roerich, George Roerich, Baron Roman von Ungern-Sternberg, Boris Shumatsky, Sergei Borisov, Elbek-Dorji Rinchino, Agvan Dorzhiev. Their names alone are intriguing so just wait until you read this book. Red Shambhala definitely is a book that lays the ground work for an exciting film. There is no need to create drama when you have true stories like this to tell.

To Be And How To Be - Transforming Your Life Through Sacred Theatre By Peggy Rubin


A Review by Andrea R.Garrison – Online With Andrea

To Be And How To Be – Transforming Your Life Through Sacred Theatre By Peggy Rubin is an amazing heart work published by Quest Books. In the forward Jean Houston say’s that, “You are about to enter a masterpiece so important, so radically original, so critically helpful that, frankly at first I felt speechless to comment on it. In this book you will become a passionate player on the stage of your own life’s journey. You will find new heart, new mind, new voice and new expression. Most importantly, you will be drawn into the genius and magic of Peggy Rubin.”

I totally agree with Jean Houston. I felt speechless and dazzled by the brilliance in this work. The concepts are so clear, uncomplicated yet transformative. This is the performance and this book is truly the work of a lifetime. According to Peggy we are all here to enact with our lives a sacred play. Each of us has the ability to go beyond the role of understudy waiting to play the role of this life time. We learn to step up and to take command of this starring role at the center stage of life. Peggy explains the Nine Powers which includes The Power of Incarnation, The Power of Story, The Power Of Now, The Power of Place, The Power of Expression, The Power of Point of View, The Power of Conflict, The Power of Audience, and The Power of Celebration, As the story unfolds and you masterfully connect to these nine powers you are able to come from back stage to the center stage of creation while manifesting, being and living your life with a greater understanding, purpose and power.

Peggy say’s, “if enough of us say thank you, faster and faster and live our lives as dedicated sacred players, then perhaps, it will be our privilege to hold back the dark a while, and even to create and sustain a world that honors everyone.”

I thoroughly enjoyed reading every single page of this sacred book and I look forward to revisiting it again and again. I am grateful to Peggy Rubin for living her life at center stage and taking the time to write this amazing book that is a great resource for me. Indeed the whole world is a stage and every single person collectively plays an integral part which is vital to the entire universe. I am sure that Peggy’s book will transcend time and will be a treasured resource for many in the future as well.
