Mount Kailash |
 |
|
|
Mt. Kailash, at 6714 m also known
as Tise, Kailasa & Kang Rinpoche(Jewel of the
Snows), has since time immemorial been celebrated in
many Eastern cosmologies as Mt. Meru, the axis mundi.
And as the center of the physical & metaphysical
universe, Mt. Meru is sacred to the Buddhist, Jains,
the Hindus & the Bonpos. For the Hindus, the
mountain represents the seat of Lord Shiva; for the
Buddhists, a terrestrial projection of the cosmic
mandala of Dhyani-Buddhas & Boddhisatvas….The Wheel
of Life; for |

the Bonpos, Kailash was the sacred
nine storey Swastika Mountain, upon which the Bonpo
founder Sherab alighted from heaven. Four of the
great rivers of the Indian subcontinent originates
from here: the Karnali, which feeds into the Ganges
(south); the Indus (north); the Sutlez (west) & the
Brahmaputra (Yearlong Tsangpo, east).
Tibet Travels & Tours offers special fixed trips to
Mt. Kailash & Lake Manasarovar to facilitate
pilgrims & foreign tourists. We are probably one of
the few outfits that provide Nepali Sherpa staff
support for all of our treks in Tibet so as to
ensure similar high quality trek services that exist
in Nepal. All trips are planned to arrive at Kailash
on a full-moon day to obtain total & unhindered view
of the holy mountain. |
