Mount Kailash
Manasarovar-story
It is said that the actual Mt. Kailas is located near the land of
Shambala. It is not possible to go there without spiritual, psychic
powers. The present so-called Mt. Kailas in Tibet is linked with
the history of the Ramayana.
In order to revive the dead and injured soldiers of Prince Rama
(who were fighting the Raksasa army of Ravana in Lanka), Hanuman
(the mighty monkey ally of Rama) was sent to fetch from Mt. Kailas
the
sanjiwini medicinal herb which restores life. Unable to recognise the plant, Hanuman picked up the mountain and brought in to Lanka. When the herbs were collected, Hanuman is said to have tossed the mountain back in the direction of the Himalayan range, intending to restore it to its original place. But, since it was tossed from a great distance, it landed lopsidedly and some of the snow dropped into Tibet. This is now called Tise (Mt. Kailas). From the Hindu devotional point of view, Mt. Kailas is the worshipful abode of the god Shiva. For Buddhists it is the place of Chakrasamvara(Tibetan: Demchog).
There is also the story related about the contest between
Milarepa and the Bonpo priest over the legitimate ownership of
pilgrimage rights to Mt. Kailas. The contestants agreed that the
one who first reached the summit of the mountain in the morning
would be recognised as the legitimate lord of Kailas. At dawn on
the morning of the contest, the Bonpo priest (Naro Bon-chung)
started his journey to the summit riding on his ritual drum and
beating it all the while. Milarepa waited until sunrise and rode in
a flash on the rays of the sun to the summit, beating the Bonpo
there. When Milarepa looked down and the surprised Bonpo looked up
and saw him, so disconcerted and shocked was he that he dropped his
drum and it broke in two and fell. It is said that the marks made
from the falling pieces of the drum can still be seen on the
mountain.
There is also the story of Lake Manasarovar. It is related
that Cakravarti raja Nug Bam was preparing cooked rice to feed the
entire world. The strained hot water from this rice cooled and
became Lake Manasarovar.

Story of Mount Kailash
Lake Mansarovar in
Mount Kailash and Holy Mounatin Kailash are two of the holiest
pilgrimage areas to devotees of Hinduism.Each year thousands of
devotees undertake the Scared journey through the mountains and
plains of Nepal and China to reach this sacred land in
Tibet.
According to Hindu
religion, the Mansarovar lake was first created in the mind of the
Lord Brahma. Hence, in Sanskrit it is called "Manasarovar", which
is a combination of the words Manas and Sarovar. The lake, in Hindu
mythology, is also supposed to be the summer abode of swans, who
are considered as very wise and sacred water birds. It is also
believed the Devas descend to bathe in the lake between 3 and 5 am
the time of the day known as Brahma Muhurta,Brahma auspicious
time.
It is the abode of
lord Shiva and his divine consort Parvati. It expounds the
philosophy of PURUSHA and PRAKRITI - SHIVA and SHAKTI. The radiant
SILVERY summit is the throne of TRUTH, WISDOM and
BLISS-SACHIDANANDAM. The premordial sound AUM from the tinkling
anklets of LALITA PRAKRITI created the visible patterns of the
universe and the VIBRATIONS from the feet of Shiva weaved the
essence of ATMAN - the ultimate truth. The spreading resonance and
limitless patterns constitute the grosser forms of all matters to
accurate scale. This is the cosmic dance visualized in millions of
forms by the devotees. The silvery mount is the apex where the
sound and the lights merges and the true Yogi transcends both these
and merges into OM. Mind is the knot tying consciousness and matter
this is set free here. This is the heart of Indian Philosophy and
civilization and the grand Manasarovar reflects the total Shaivam
consciousness.

Parvati in Western Tibet 4560 Meters above sea level with an
