Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Will we make it? That's the question Kavitha and her cousin, Pallu, ask themselves as they trek through Himalayan pine forests and unforgiving mountains in Nepal and Tibet. Their goal: to reach Mount Kailash and Lake Manasarovar. The two women walk to ancient monasteries, meditate on freezing slopes, dance on the foothills of Kailash, and confront death in the thin mountain air. In Kailash and Manasarovar, the holiest of Hindu and Buddhist sites, they struggle to reconcile their rationalist views with faith and the beloved myths of their upbringing. Remarkably, it is this journey that helps them discover the meaning of friendship. Walking in Clouds is a beautifully crafted memoir of a journey to far-away places and to the places within. It mixes lyrical, descriptive storytelling with stunning photographs to bring to life a unique travelogue.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hailed as a "wondrous book" by Gretel Ehrlich, and winner of the Kekoo Naoroji Book Award for Himalayan Literature—a journey of healing that becomes a pilgrimage for the soul. Stephen Alter was raised by American missionary parents in the hill station of Mussoorie, in the foothills of the Himalayas, where he and his wife, Ameeta, now live. Their idyllic existence was brutally interrupted when four armed intruders invaded their house and viciously attacked them, leaving them for dead. The violent assault and the trauma of almost dying left him questioning assumptions he had lived by since childhood. For the first time, he encountered the face of evil and the terror of the unknown. He felt like a foreigner in the land of his birth. This book is his account of a series of treks he took in the high Himalayas following his convalescence—to Bandar Punch (the monkey’s tail), Nanda Devi, the second highest mountain in India, and Mt. Kailash in Tibet. He set himself this goal to prove that he had healed mentally as well as physically and to re-knit his connection to his homeland. Undertaken out of sorrow, the treks become a moving soul journey, a way to rediscover mountains in his inner landscape. Weaving together observations of the natural world, Himalayan history, folklore and mythology, as well as encounters with other pilgrims along the way, Stephen Alter has given us a moving meditation on the solace of high places, and on the hidden meanings and enduring mystery of mountains.

Book excerpt: Kailash – The Heart and Soul of Tibet There are few places on Earth comparable to the mysterious, stunningly beautiful and completely isolated Mt Kailash, which lies well hidden in a remote and deserted region of western Tibet. In order to understand the importance of holy Mt Kailash it is necessary to know that it is considered the legendary abode of the gods. One circle around the mountain (54 km) is symbolically one revolution of the wheel of life or the cycle from birth to death. This, simultaneously, brings about the purification and forgiveness of all sins committed in this lifetime. This is the land of the Sun. In this spot I started to understand the difference between the world that I was coming from and the one that was standing before me. This is without doubt the most beautiful spot on Earth. This is Shambala! These were moments of great happiness, when all the struggles of travelling are forgotten and replaced by sheer joy. This is the physical and spiritual climax of the pilgrimage because the Drolma La pass is considered the most holy spot on the trail and arrival there marks the beginning of a completely new life.

Book excerpt: Tibet’s Mount Kailas is one of the world’s great pilgrimage centres, renowned as an ancient sacred site that embodies a universal sacrality. But Kailas Histories: Renunciate Traditions and the Construction of Himalayan Sacred Geography demonstrates that this understanding is a recent construction by British colonial, Hindu modernist, and New Age interests. Using multiple sources, including fieldwork, Alex McKay describes how the early Indic vision of a heavenly mountain named Kailas became identified with actual mountains. He emphasises renunciate agency in demonstrating how local beliefs were subsumed as Kailas developed within Hindu, Buddhist, and Bön traditions, how five mountains in the Indian Himalayan are also named Kailas, and how Kailas sacred geography constructions and a sacred Ganges source region were related.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christian Fabre’s life was nothing less than a roller-coaster ride. He was far away from home, he had a broken marriage, was penniless, and without a job. The evolution of Swami Pranavananda Brahmendra Avadhuta from the down-on-his-luck French entrepreneur who had witnessed several ups and downs in his business, is an inspiring story. Ironically, the very name that he renounced has become famous all over India today, as more and more Christian Fabre stores open up in numerous cities. After his ordainment as a Naga Swami (a renunciate naked Hindu monk), his beloved Guru gave him an astounding directive – his career in fashionable garments had to be his sadhana (spiritual practice). He had to be in the marketplace, but not of it; he had to bring Spirituality into the material world. Successfully straddling the seemingly opposing worlds of Spirituality and international fashion wear, the Press calls him the ‘Anti-Trump’ or the ‘Naked Emperor of Ready-to-Wear’. This is his story, in his words...

Book excerpt: 14 Days To Kailash Mansarovar is the story of a journey into one of the most holy and remote places on earth, through the experiences of the author, a close friend and two other co-travellers. The 'Yatra' starts from Kathmandu, in a large group of 36, and travels through the towns, people and the cultures of Nepal and Tibet. At the roof of the world, the Tibetan highlands open out into vast, empty landscapes that defy imagination. By Mansarovar, 15,000 feet high, two of the four friends find themselves in the scary grip of altitude sickness. One stays out in the freezing night, lost in a trance by the shores of the holy lake. Two go out in search, and have bone-chilling experiences. The altitude wreaks havoc with some of them. The holy lake's benign nature calms them for a while, but by the time they hit the Parikrama trail, the four are gripped in anxious excitement, their companionship, a safety rope through this scary journey. Judgements, reservations, ego, pride, all come crashing down. What follows is momentous. They live through one of the most difficult days of their lives, almost break, but somehow find hidden reserves of strength at their weakest moments. How? What happened?'14 Days To Kailash Mansarovar' features full colour photographs of the journey, along with the history, mythology and facts associated with this 'Yatra' and its significant places. But it is most importantly, a story of friendship, of self-realisation, of the paths we take, and where they lead.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kailash is considered to be the center of our planet and is an attraction to many. It attracted me too for years, and I finally could make this journey only in 2015, traveling for 21 days, crossing the formidable Himalayas through the high Himalayan Lipulekh Pass into Tibet. The book is a compilation of my personal experiences in this journey through the classical route followed by a lot of pilgrims and holy men in the past. I have tried to capture the minute details of this life-changing journey as best as possible in the various chapters. A day-to-day account with illustrations provides the reader a flavor of this journey in great detail. A section of this book is devoted to help future travelers with the preparations they need to do, both physical and mental, and the safety aspects to be followed. It also has a few lines on High Altitude Illness. While preparing for this important pilgrimage, I could not find a lot of vital information and facts initially. I tried to collect this information from various sources, and after reading them and understanding them, I felt very confident to do this yatra.

Book excerpt: In 2012, Samuel Zuder (*1965) set out to one of the most fascinating places in the world. According to legend, the yogi Milarepa was the only one to have scaled it in the twelfth century, although thousands of pilgrims circumambulated it: Mount Kailash--also known as the "Jewel of Snow" due to its unusually symmetrical form--in the middle of the rocky desert of Tibet's Changthang plateau. Venerated by four religious orientations--Hinduism, Buddhism, Jaina, and Bön--the photographer harnessed the magnetism of this site, its promise of happiness and enlightenment, in his images. With his large-format, analogue camera, Zuder accompanied pilgrims over a period of several weeks on their approximately fifty-three-kilometer-long path around Mount Kailash--which they regard as the origin of the world--to capture its silent grandeur.
