Keilash Mount in Himalayas

The adobe of lord Shiva


❤🙏🔱ॐ🔥   Kailash Mount also known as Kailashakuta or Kailashagiri. The region around mount Kailash and the Indus headwaters area is typified by wide scale faulting of Igneous Granitic rocks. Mount Kailash appears to be a meta sedimentary roof  pendant supported by a massive granite base.

Mount Kailash


❤🙏🔱ॐ🔥   In Hinduism, it is traditionally recognized as the abode of Lord Shiva, who resided there along with his consort goddess Parvathi and their children Ganesh and Karthikeyan.

❤🙏🔱ॐ🔥   In the Uththara Kanda section of the epic Ramayana, it is sais Ravana attempted to uproot the mount Kailash as retaliation to Lord Shiva, who in turn, pressed his right big toe upon the mountain trapping Ravana in between.

❤🙏🔱ॐ🔥   This version of Lord Shiva is also referred to as "Ravananugraha" of favour form to Ravana while seated in mount Kailash.

❤🙏🔱ॐ🔥   According to epic Mahabharatha, it is said that the Pandava brothers along with their wife Draupadi, trekked to the summit of mount Kailash on their path of liberation, as it is considered to be a gateway to heaven, also known as Swarga Loka.


 
❤🙏🔱ॐ🔥   Mount Kailash is known as Mount Mahameru in Buddhist texts. It is central to its cosmology and a major pilgrimage site for some traditions.

❤🙏🔱ॐ🔥  Vajrayana Buddhist believe that mount kailash is the home of Buddha chakrasanvara who represents supreme bliss.

❤🙏🔱ॐ🔥   Numerous sites in the region are associated with “Padma Sambhawa” whose tantric practices in holy sites around Tibet are credited with finally establishing Buddhism as the main religion of the country in the 7th – 8th century.

❤🙏🔱ॐ🔥  In 1926 Hugh Ruttledge studied the north face, which he estimated was 6000 feet high (1800m) and "Utterly Unclimble" and thought about as ascent of the northeast ridge, but he ran out of time.




❤🙏🔱ॐ🔥   Climate change due to global warming is happening three times faster on the Tibetan plateau than anywhere else in the world. Mount Kailash is located in a mountain range upon the Tibetan plateau, near the plateau’s western edge.

❤🙏🔱ॐ🔥   According to local observers, the land around mount Kailash has been growing warmer in recent years, the pilgrimage season isn’t as cold as it used to be. According to available data from the region, glaciers are retreating, lakes are shrinking, the amount of barren lands in increasing.

❤🙏🔱ॐ🔥   Also the eventual thawing of the permafrost in this region may lead to uncertain effects on water resource and carbon cycles. 




Thank you…!   💛💛💛
