Mt. Kailas
with a Canopy of Clouds (Western Tibet)
|
|
|
|
The southern face of Mt. Kailas viewed in a canopy of
clouds from top of Chiu Gompa near Lake Manasarovar. Just to see Kailas
is a blessing; to circumambulate the mountain once is said to erase the
sins of a lifetime. To most pilgrims it is enough to know the mountain is
holy; they do not ask why, but take its presence as a blessing and go through
tremendous hardships to be touched by its power. |
