A Yatra to Kailas - Manasarovar is the sublimation of all spiritual journeys. This spiritual journey - the first Kailas Yatra of the School of Bhagavad Gita, organized by Swami Sandeepananda Giri,from 20 July to 6 August 2007, literally elevated one to higher realms of experience. For the 101- strong group of yatris, a sense of total surrender backed by will power, the strength of the Upanishad mantras chanted under the guidance of Swamiji at the start of each day’s journey, and above all the divine grace of the Almighty, saw to it that this special pilgrimage was completed successfully. 

En route,the scenes of Nature in myriad moods and forms turned out to be a glorious experience of witnessing the ‘vibhooti’ of the Lord.The ethereal sights of Mount Kailas, the serene Manasarovar, Gauri Kund, the Rakshasa Tal, uninhabited by any living forms, a dip in the holy waters of the Manasarovar and the experience to do the parikrama was surely a life time experience for the pilgrims, who ranged from age 23 to 72 years. While many returned with a deep sense of peace and contentment, others vowed to come back next year to take this pilgrimage which is a tonic for the body and soul. View pictures
