Mount Kailash & Lake Manasorovar
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 Hindu & 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 (Yarlung Tsangpo, east).
