Kailash- Mansarover Yatra Overland 2010 |
|
| |
|
|
| |
 According to the Hindu's Mythology, Lord Shiva spend his most of the time on the top of the holy Mount Kailash, practicing Yoga austerities, joy and love with his divine consort Parbati (Mother of Mythology). The Lake Mansarovar and the holy Mount Kailash are the SOUL of all AUM followers in the world.
"Conventional wisdom says a single circuit of Mt. Kailash wipes out the sins of a lifetime, 108 Parikramas guarantees enlightenment. A ritual bath in the sacred Mansarovar Lake will deliver a pilgrim to Brahma's paradise and a drop drink of its water relinquishes the sins of hundred lifetimes."
