Mount Kailash, a reverential sanctum is important not only to Hindus; it constituently imparts equal faith to Buddhist, Jain and Bonpo Religion. Some believe this Parvat (Mountain) as a center of the universe, some as "Soul of Universe” while the Tibetan Buddhist entitled this mountain as “Kang Rimpoche”, meaning “Precious Jewel of Snow”. Believed as an abode of Hindu God Shiva and his wife Parvati, it is the source of longest rivers in Asia like The Brahmaputra, The Indus, The Karnali and The Sutlej RiverWith the periphery of 53 km, Kailash Parvat (Mountain) is taken as Purgatory. Every year a huge number of pilgrims from across the globe come here to circumambulate it, accepting the arduous trail of at least 3 days.
It is believed that people who visit this dwelling of lord Shiva can be released from the sins and bad deeds which they committed knowingly or unknowingly. Even more, performing the circuit (Kailash Kora) opens the door to obtain ultimate Salvation- Mokshya..
Tibet is one of the most privileged and preferred Pilgrimage destinations as it is sacred home to Mount Kailash and Manasarovar. It is believed that the initiator of Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism and Tibetan religion abide here once. Every Year thousands of devotees from across the world endure this 6714 meters snowcapped Black Mountain.
Manasarovar Lake: With Kailash Parvat Manasarovar Lake is another sacred pilgrimage destination for devotees. This lake comprises two Sanskrit words “Manas” mean mind or consciousness and “Sarovar” meaning Lake. People circumambulate this lake, dip into its cold water and drink it with the belief of earning Punya (good deeds) to secure their place in heaven after death. The 70m depth Manasarovar Lake with lotus having eight petals is 4580 meters above the sea level spreading out with a circumference of 90 km. It takes three days to rotate this gigantic lake.
As sacred Mount Kailash Manasarovar has a long history with spiritual and religious significance. Hindu believe it as a bathing place of Lord Shiva and Parvati, Buddhist believe it as a place where Buddha meditated and got enlightenment and Jain believe it as a place where their first saint achieved Liberation from this mortal life called Salvation. However all religions consider this lake to be the purest water body with the power of eternity. The breath taking scenario of the simmering emerald water waves effaces the agony and pain of every heart. If you want to enroll yourself in an unforgettable holy trip on this sacred land, remember the travel company Monterosa is always here at your service. We leave no stone unturned facilitating you: after all your comfort is our achievement.
