                                  Every year thousands of spiritual seekers and nature lovers come to visit the holy Mount Kailash and Mansarovar Lake, situated in Tibet. Mount Kailash and Manasarovar is the supremely sacred destination of four major religions, Hindu, Buddhist, Jain, and Bon. It is common to say that, a person who crosses the Kailash circuit once, all his sins are gone away. Going around Mt. Kailash 108 times means that one is directly receiving Nirvana (freedom). According to the description of Ramayana, one who takes a bath in Mansarovar Lake reaches Bramalok (heaven); whereas the one drinking the water from Kailash knows the world of Shivalok (Shiva’s abode).
