In this episode, we journey into the legends and beliefs that surround this extraordinary mountain. From its significance in Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, and Bon, to the pilgrimage of the sacred kora around its base, Mount Kailash represents more than just a mountain—it is seen as the center of the world, a gateway between the human and the divine. We’ll explore the myths, the geography, and the enduring sense of wonder that makes Kailash one of the most sacred and enigmatic places on Earth.
