Shambhala, which is a Sanskrit word meaning ''place of peace'' or ''place of silence'', is a mythical paradise spoken of in ancient texts, including the Kalachakra Tantra and the ancient scriptures of the Zhang Zhung culture which predated Tibetan Buddhism in western Tibet.
As told in legend, the mystical land of ''Shambhala '' is a place where one can become immortal, never to suffer or be weak again, and it's filled with wisdom and love all around it. The Kalachakra speaks of Shambhala in greater detail, saying that only individuals with the appropriate Karma can reach it. The texts also prophecise an ''End of the world'' event, in which the ''Barbarians'' will rage war against the Shambhala.
