In the far west of Tibet
is Mt Kailash or Kang Rinpoche, the most sacred
mountain in Asia venerated by Buddhists, Hindus, Jains and
the ancient Bon Po religion of Tibet and is considered the
centre of the universe & the most holy place in the world
for both Hindus and Buddhists. For many centuries Tibetan
and Indian pilgrims have been making the 53km circuit or kora,
of the mountain which supposedly wipes the sins of a lifetime,
enticement enough. This circumambulation is clockwise for
Buddhists and Hindus and anti-clockwise for bon followers.
