Explore the Himalayas of Nepal at Affordable Price on Nepal Visit 2020| Saka Dawa Festival
In the hundred ages of the gods I could not tell the glories of (the Himalaya) …..there is no mountain like (the Himalaya) for in it are Kailash and Manasarovar.
As a result, the tradition in the Tibetan community is to make offerings to their temple, Lama, and their community. One important offering that is made is to poor people. Tibetans in Tibet, India, Nepal etc., give beggars money during this time. Some Tibetans also give money to save the lives of animals. For instance, giving a butcher money to save the life of a sheep. Then this sheep is taken to a herdsman who is paid regularly by the “sponsor” to take care of the animal. The karmic merit thought to accumulate from these actions, if the motivation is correct, can be enormous.
MT. KAILASH (6741 m) is perhaps the most sacred of Holy Mountains in Tibet. Together with the two lakes of Manasarovar & Rakas, the region is one of the few truly nature wonders of the world., Three of the orient’s greatest rivers; For the Hindus, it represents the abode of Lord Shiva and for the Buddhists, a terrestrial projection of the cosmic Mandala of the Five Dhyani Buddhas & The Wheel of life.
NOTE: Chinese Visa for entry into Tibet is only available on certain days of the week.

Trek Shabje Drakthok Start trek from Drira Phuk and immediately cross the Lha Chu on a wooden bridge. If one continues to trek up the Lha Chu, they would eventually reach the true source of the Indus. The snow covered pass to the right, the Khado Sanglam is protected by a lion faced Dakini goddess.
