Kailash Manasarovar English 2003

The Mt. Kailash - Lake Manasarovar region, in the west of Himalayas, is a wonderful place, especially for those fascinated by the stories and tales of gods and domons. Mt. Kailash is the only place of pilgrimage in the world where four mighty religious communities - Hindus, Buddhists, Jains and Tibetan Bonpas perform their religious rites. For Shaivites, the worshippers of Lord Shiva, Kailash is the most sacred of all the Hindu pilgrimages. Lake Manasarovar was formed from the mind of Lord Brahma and hence called Manasa - sarovar. The holy lake Manasarovar, through its everlasting enchantment, washes away the sorrow of all mortal beings throughout the ages. It is stipulated that of whatever faith one is, since the basic faith of every religion is humanity, he will be touched by the holy vibrations of this kingdom of gods. With this book an attempt has been made to pay regards to the pictorial beauty of Kumaon Himalayas and that of Kailash - Manasarovar region in Ngari (Tibet).
