!! Adi Kailash and ॐ Parvat Yatra !! Spiritual Journey !! 2022 !!
!! According to Hindu religious beliefs, Lord Shiva lives on Kailash mountain, but before going to Kailash there is another special mountain. Its name is Om Parvat (Om Parvat). Lord Shiva is considered to be existence on this too. This mountain exists on the border of India-Tibet. Surprisingly, this whole mountain has a naturally 'om' shape. This figure is formed from the snow falling here every year.
The elevation of Om Mountain is 6,191 meters above sea level (20,312 feet). According to Hindu beliefs, a total of 8 places in the Himalayas are the shape of Om, but till now only this place has been discovered.
Many mythological stories are connected to Om Parvat. People believe that being naturally Om on the mountain is a miracle from God. Come here where the beautiful shades of nature is seen. Right there, peace of mind is found spiritually.
Passengers here naturally hear the sound of om, but experts believe it could be the cause of snow falling on the mountain. When the first ray of the sun shines on the top of this mountain, the golden aura of the word starts shining.
Although this mountain has been located here for centuries, this mountain mass cognizance came in 1981. Explain that there are still many peaks in the Himalayan mountain range, where the gods and goddesses are considered to reside. !!
Only when you enter Shiva's abode do you realise that the energy that surrounds you is not exclusive to the energy within you; for Shiva is both the consciousness and the conscience.
Smaller in scale, the 950-year-old Brihadisvara Temple, dedicated to Shiva, in Gangaikonda Cholapuram, Tamil Nadu, shares similarities in design and name to the mighty Brihadisvara Temple in Thanjavur.
As the Sun is about to burst through, Mt. Kinner Kailash along with brilliantly illuminated Holy Shivling, takes on celestial hues.This sight for which we all flock to Kalpa is considered the incarnation of the Lord himself. Om Namah Shivay!!!
Mahashivratri, “The Great Night of Shiva” is a night of special spiritual significance.The fourteenth day of every lunar month or the day before the new moon is known as Shivratri. Among all the twelve Shivratris that occur in a calendar year, Mahashivratri, the one that occurs in February-March is of the most spiritual significance. On this night, the northern hemisphere of the planet is positioned in such a way that there is a natural upsurge of energy in a human being.
"Om Sarva Mangal Manglaye Shivay Sarvaarth Sadhike
Sharanye Trayambake Gauri Narayaani Namostu Te"
"Oh the divine couple Shiva Parvati !
O ! Thee, the protectors of this universe,
Along with Lords Brahma and Vishnu
We pray to You for our well-being, prosperity and the enlightenment of our souls."
(Lord Shiva Prarthana Prayer)
The power or energy of Shiva is Shakti, his spouse, of which Parvati is probably the most popular form.
Lord Shiva And Mata Parvati Ji are often shown sitting in happy, intimate embrace.
After their marriage, they left for mount Kailash and immersed themselves completely in a sexual intercourse so strong that the deity of desire Kama was reborn when their sweat mingles with his ashes.
Their love was so intense that it shook the cosmos and frightened even the gods...

Manimahesh is in the south-eastern corner of Chamba District of Himachal Pardesh here in north India. It lies at an altitude of 13,390 ft.
The name Manimahesh signifies a jewel (Mani) on Lord Shiva's (Mahesh's) crown Local people claim that the moon-rays reflected from the jewel can be seen from Manimahesh Lake on clear full-moon nights (which is a rare occasion). It is more likely to be the light reflected from the glacier that adorns the peak, like a serpent on Shiva's neck.
It is believed that Lord Shiva one of the three Lords in Hindu Trinity (known as Lord Brahma the creator, Lord Vishnu the Preserver and Lord Shiva the destroyer) stays at Manimahesh Kailash.
Offical Manimahesh yatra starts near janmashtami festival and continue till mid september. For rest time of year, this whole area is covered under snow.
