Shambhala (Tib. bde 'byung) is a Sanskrit term comprising swayam + bhala meaning self benefited or swayam + bala meaning self powered.  Commonly it is understood to be a "place of peace & tranquility"                    

 Shambhala is believed to be a society where all the inhabitants are  enlightened.

 during  the 1985 ,Kalachakra initiation in Bodhgaya , Shambhala is not an ordinary country:

 human  realm and unless one has the merit and the actual karmic association, one cannot actually arrive there.

 of one's own body and mind (inner), and the meditation practice (alternative). These two types of symbolic  explanations are generally passed on orally from teacher to student.


 In Hinduism Shambala has three meanings:

 Shambhal is a place where one gets peace and security.

 Another meaning is, ' that which attracts others ', or ' that which confers distinction '.

 The third meaning is, ' a place situated near water '.
