Here the divine and the earthly world, the individual and the cosmos come into contact. Here we come to our center in the mandala of the Universe. Perhaps this explains the incredible feeling of fulfillment and satisfaction experienced by anyone who has made this journey at least once. Fifty-two kilometers, like Ariadne’s thread, lead the traveler through the labyrinths of his own soul. Here, at a height where the air is thin and thoughts are pure, the gates to other dimensions open. Tibetans call pilgrimage “nekor”, a walk around a holy place or the path from ignorance to awakening. Kailash is considered sacred in four religions: Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism and Bon. Hindus believe that this is the abode of Shiva, Buddhists – that Buddha Demchog lives here, Jains – that their first tirthankara Rishabha achieved nirvana here, and Bons – that this is the place of the original creation. Kailash is Mount Meru, the axis of the world or the center of the universe.
