Synopsis The Call of Kailash Mansarovar : A Travelogue by : Dr. Hari Om

Through the travelogue 'The Call of Kailash Mansarovar, Mr. Hari Om breaks and adds a lot to the travel narrative genre. Mr. Arun Prakash has written in 'The Identity of Prose' that 'a traveller must not only have a map of the destination, but also, a healthy perspective. Dr. Hari Om possesses that healthy and concise approach, through which, he presents a pilgrimage in a captivating narrative. In this journey, Dr. Hari Om not only contemplates on religion, spirituality etc. in a logical manner, but also. conducts socio-psychological analyses along the way. This concern also persists within him as to how 'the fog and sallowness of religion has stolen the colour from the beautiful environment of our country. The imbalance between development and environment has been strongly underlined in it. Kailash Mansarovar is situated in Tibet which is now under China. In the journey, the prosperity of China can be seen face to face with the destitution of Nepal. 'The question of health and cleanliness gets buried under faith and belief. Along with thrill and interest, there is amazing storytelling in this travel narrative. Along with the religious and spiritual aspects, this book will undoubtedly prove to be helpful in understanding the geography, society, environment, diplomacy, development and cultural-political relations of India, Nepal, Tibet and China.

Synopsis Kailash Manasarovar by : Veena Sharma

Is a physical journey the necessary path to spiritual evolution? Kailash Manasarovar:A Sacred Journey dwells on this question and perceives the possibility for the three stages of inner transformation during the journey, using the Devi Mahatmayam as a metaphor. The journey shows that it takes just a shift in perspective to behold the divine in the mundane. By eroding the conditioning of our essence, the journey helps us connect with a pure centre, marking the beginning of interactions which are actions, rather than mere reactions to situations. From this point on, it is in maintaining a heightened awareness of one?s emotions, memories, surroundings and companions that makes the journey more meaningful.

Synopsis Walking in Clouds by : Kavitha Yaga Buggana

Will we make it? That's the question Kavitha and her cousin, Pallu, ask themselves as they trek through Himalayan pine forests and unforgiving mountains in Nepal and Tibet. Their goal: to reach Mount Kailash and Lake Manasarovar. The two women walk to ancient monasteries, meditate on freezing slopes, dance on the foothills of Kailash, and confront death in the thin mountain air. In Kailash and Manasarovar, the holiest of Hindu and Buddhist sites, they struggle to reconcile their rationalist views with faith and the beloved myths of their upbringing. Remarkably, it is this journey that helps them discover the meaning of friendship. Walking in Clouds is a beautifully crafted memoir of a journey to far-away places and to the places within. It mixes lyrical, descriptive storytelling with stunning photographs to bring to life a unique travelogue.

Synopsis Becoming a Mountain by : Stephen Alter

Hailed as a "wondrous book" by Gretel Ehrlich, and winner of the Kekoo Naoroji Book Award for Himalayan Literature—a journey of healing that becomes a pilgrimage for the soul. Stephen Alter was raised by American missionary parents in the hill station of Mussoorie, in the foothills of the Himalayas, where he and his wife, Ameeta, now live. Their idyllic existence was brutally interrupted when four armed intruders invaded their house and viciously attacked them, leaving them for dead. The violent assault and the trauma of almost dying left him questioning assumptions he had lived by since childhood. For the first time, he encountered the face of evil and the terror of the unknown. He felt like a foreigner in the land of his birth. This book is his account of a series of treks he took in the high Himalayas following his convalescence—to Bandar Punch (the monkey’s tail), Nanda Devi, the second highest mountain in India, and Mt. Kailash in Tibet. He set himself this goal to prove that he had healed mentally as well as physically and to re-knit his connection to his homeland. Undertaken out of sorrow, the treks become a moving soul journey, a way to rediscover mountains in his inner landscape. Weaving together observations of the natural world, Himalayan history, folklore and mythology, as well as encounters with other pilgrims along the way, Stephen Alter has given us a moving meditation on the solace of high places, and on the hidden meanings and enduring mystery of mountains.

Synopsis HOLY MOUNT KAILASH by : Milan P. Rakocevic

Kailash – The Heart and Soul of Tibet There are few places on Earth comparable to the mysterious, stunningly beautiful and completely isolated Mt Kailash, which lies well hidden in a remote and deserted region of western Tibet. In order to understand the importance of holy Mt Kailash it is necessary to know that it is considered the legendary abode of the gods. One circle around the mountain (54 km) is symbolically one revolution of the wheel of life or the cycle from birth to death. This, simultaneously, brings about the purification and forgiveness of all sins committed in this lifetime. This is the land of the Sun. In this spot I started to understand the difference between the world that I was coming from and the one that was standing before me. This is without doubt the most beautiful spot on Earth. This is Shambala! These were moments of great happiness, when all the struggles of travelling are forgotten and replaced by sheer joy. This is the physical and spiritual climax of the pilgrimage because the Drolma La pass is considered the most holy spot on the trail and arrival there marks the beginning of a completely new life.
