A Pilgrimage to Mt. Kailash and Mansarovar:
For thousands of years,
Mount Kailash (Kangripoche) - in western Tibet - has
been sacred to Budhhists, Hindus, Jains and Bonpos. To
Hindus and Buddhists in particular, it is the centre of
the universe, and pilgrims walk overland for weeks or
months to accomplish their lifetime goal of visiting the
mountain.
Mount Kailash is also the source of four of Asia's
greatest rivers; the Indus, Brahmhaputra (Tsangpo),
Karnali (Ganges) and Sultejali have their sources within
sixty miles of the mountain.
In September 1999, Mr. James A Pearre and Mrs. Diane
DeRocher trekked with us from Simikot, to Mount Kailash
and Lhasa. During their trip they kept a travel journal.
