For the Hindus, Kailash is a domain of Shiva. It is also the abode of samvara – a multiarmed, wrathful deity worshiped in the chakrasmvara Tantric cycle of Tibetan Buddhism. The jains of India also revere the mountain as the site at which the first of their saints emannine story Swastika Mountain, upon which the Bonpo founder shenrab alighted from heaven.
Sprawling below Mount Kailash is the sacred lake Manasarovar (4560m), where a ritual bath will deliver a pilgrim to Brahmas, paradise and a drink of its water relinquishes the sins of a hundred lifetimes.
