"He who thinks of Himachala , though he should not behold him, is greater than one who performs all worship in Kashi (Benares). In the hundred ages of the Devas I couldn't tell thee of the glories of Himachala. As the dew is dried up by the morning sun so are the sins of mankind by the sight of Himachala." ~ Glory of Kailash and Himalayas is mentioned in the Puranas. Every year, thousands make a pilgrimage to Kailash, following a tradition going back thousands of years. Pilgrims of several religions believe that circumambulating Mount Kailash will remove sins and bring good fortune. The pilgrimage around the sacred mountain is called the Kailash Kora. It is said that one trip around the sacred mountain will wipe away all the sins of one's current lifetime; 108 revolutions will remove the sins of all one's lifetimes and bring salvation from reincarnation (Moksha).
According to Hinduism, Lord Shiva resides at the summit of a legendary mountain Kailash, where he sits in a state of perpetual meditation along with his wife Parvati. He is at once the Lord of Yoga and therefore the ultimate renunciate ascetic, yet he is also the divine master of Tantra. Mount Kailash is regarded in many sects of Hinduism as Paradise, the ultimate destination of souls and the spiritual center of the world. According to a description in the Puranas, Mount Kailash's four faces are made of crystal, ruby, gold, and lapis lazuli; it is the pillar of the world; rises 84,000 leagues high; is the center of the world mandala; and is located at the heart of six mountain ranges symbolising a lotus. From it flow four rivers, which stretch to the four quarters of the world and divide the world into four regions. The legendary mountain has long been identified with the striking peak in the Himalayas that now bears its name. Shiva is therefore believed to dwell at its summit. Some traditions say the mountain is Shiva's linga. The importance of this holy mountain in Hinduism is reflected, among other places, at the famous Ellora Caves in India, where the largest and most important rock-carved temple is dedicated to Mount Kailash.!
