About us:
Shangri-La is a little Therapy-Center in the midst of a magical land at the
east end of the Ojai Valley, in Southern California, 90 miles north of Los
Angeles and just 2 minutes from the Krishnamurti Library and Retreat.
Shangri-La is situated on the property called “Casa de Paz” which
reflects the timeless magic and peace associated with this spiritual area.
Marcus and Eva bought this property in March 2004 to give the land back its
traditional purpose. Tucked away on two and a half acres of mature landscaping,
there is the stone ‘Peace Chapel’ built in 1922, some say for Krishnamurti’s
brother Nitya.
Marcus, Eva’s husband is a non-denominational licensed Minister who
performs wedding-ceremonies and other blessing-ceremonies in the Peace Chapel
and the surrounding gardens.
This property has been a very spiritual site for hundreds of years
dating back to the native American Indians. It feels like you are touching
the ground of a different time and space. Time stands still here, which is
ideal to focus on yourself and to begin the journey towards your inner wisdom.
Shangri-La was the inspiration of the Movie “Lost Horizon” that
was made in Ojai-Valley and it says everything…..
Where every man glimpses the eternal...for it is in the eternal that we see
ourselves for who we truly are...light.
