Yatra to Holy-Kailash and
Manasarover:
To the world's Hindus and
Buddhists, Mt Kailash is the
high, remote western borderland
of Tibet is the centre of the
universe, the holiest of holy.
It definitely looks the part,
rising like a lone apparition
form the windswept alpine
meadows that surround it on all
sides. On its immaculate white
22,000-foot summit legend says,
the worlds of humankind and gods
meet. Pilgrims come from as far
away as the tropical plains of
southern India and beyond to
walk the ancient, shrine studded
pilgrims trails that circle the
base of the holy-peak. Following
in their footsteps, walking
alongside rugged nomads, Hindu
holy men and jewel-adorned
aristocrats on horseback, it is
easy to believe, as they do,
that a single pilgrimage around
Kailash burns away a thousand
years of ignorance and bad
karma. Breathing that rarefied
air, eyes filled with brilliant
rock, snow and sky, passing a
veritable Canterbury Tales-worth
of medieval style fellow
travellers, magic seems logical,
the power of the place
undeniable. Before or after
completing the circuit, the
group will visit the exquisite
turquoise color Lake Manasarovar,
also considered to be very
sacred. |
