KAILASH / MANASAROVAR TREK
Few mountains in the world rival the grandeur of
Mount Kailash (6714m) , the famed holy peak in Western Tibet. Kailash has long
been an object of worship for four major religions. For the Hindus, it is the
domain of Shiva. It is also the abode of Samvara-a multi armed, wrathful
deity worshipped in the Chakrasamvara Tantric cycle of Tibetan Buddhism. The
Jains of India also revere the mountain as the site at which the first of their
saints emancipated. And in the ancient Bon religion of Tibet, Kailash was the
sacred nine storey Swastika Mountain, upon which the Bonpo founder Shenrab
alighted from heaven.
Sprawling below Mount Kailash is the sacred Lake Manasarovar (4560m),
where a ritual bath will deliver a pilgrim to Brahma's paradise and a drink of
its water relinquishes the sins of a hundred lifetimes.
The 53 Km Kailash circuit is the holiest of all Tibet's pilgrimages and
the beacon which draws most travellers to Western Tibet. It is said that a
Single Parikarma erases the accumulated sins of a lifetime, while 108
circumbulation will achieve Salvation Or Nirvana.
