Welcome to your Kailash Mansarovar Yatra by Helicopter – Ex Lucknow’ tour!
Overview
The abode of Lord Shiva for Hindus, home of Buddha Demchok according to Buddhists, the spiritual seat of power per Bon followers, and the place where Rishabhadeva, the creator of Jain religion attained Nirvana- Mount Kailash is a hero of mythological legends and an ultimate spiritual destination. While thousands of pilgrims attempt this cathartic journey, only the ones truly driven are able to complete it successfully. And if you are reading about it so intently, we are in no doubt about your superlative motivation. IT is Shiva who has no Aadi (beginning) and no Anth (end). Yes, he is one amongst the Hindu trinity that includes Brahma and Vishnu. But he is the Supreme itself and Supreme of them all. According to mythology, Ravana created Lake Rakshastal to gain supernatural powers by meditating on its banks, in close proximity to Mount Kailash. Owing to the association with Ravana and its lifeless waters and gusting winds, the lake is given a wide berth by spiritual seekers.
