Kingdom of Shiva
The Cosmic Energy exists everywhere in this creation. It is the bonding energy between the stars, galaxies, the planets and in all molecules. This keeps the entire Cosmos in order. Cosmic rays are immensely high-energy radiation, mainly originating outside the Solar System. When cosmic rays enter the Earth’s atmosphere, they collide with molecules, mainly oxygen and nitrogen. The interaction produces a cascade of lighter particles, a so-called air shower secondary radiation that rains down, including x-rays, muons, protons, alpha particles, pions, electrons, and neutrons.

More than any other peak in the Himalayas Mount Kailash opens the mind to the cosmos around it, evoking a sense of infinite space that makes one aware of a vaster universe encompassing the limited world of ordinary experience. Mount Kailash has a different energy than other places on the planet. It is a unique mirror pyramidal complex that receives cosmic energy flow coming down to the Earth and, at the same time; it emits flows outward from the Earth. It brings certain “reference” vibrations that allow activating the energy centres of a man and considerably advancing his spiritual development creating a whirlpool of Positive Cosmic Power.

Mt.   Kailash   is a pyramid-shaped formation consisting of four parts. The west and north faces are concave and the east and south face are a bit convex. The faces of the mountain are quite precisely oriented to the quarters of the world.   Each of Mount Kailash's faces reflects different moods. The southern face reflects majesty or splendour and covers fully with snow. The western face enveloped in an aura of compassion and benevolence. The shadow cast by the rocky outcrops on it draws a huge swastika, the seat of all power. The sacred Kailash rises to the nine levels of swastika, the sacred symbol of auspiciousness. In fact, a swastika is an equilateral cross with four arms bent at 90 degrees. It is where the Supreme Lord Shiva sits in a state of perpetual meditation. It is the abode of purity. The northern face is stark, forbidding, and daunting while the eastern, only visible from a long way off, is mysterious and distant.

 The east face is  Om Parvat i and its snow deposition pattern resembles the sacred 'OM'. Near Om Parvat lie Parvati Lake and sacred Lake Mansarovar. Goddess Parvati is the benevolent source of life and renewal. Her deliverance assured for people taking a bath at Manasarovar Lake. This Manasarovar is on the southeast of Mount Kailash is one of the highest freshwater lakes in the Earth and round like the sun.

To enhance the symbolic mysticism of the mountain as a sacred place, two lakes situated at the base of the mountain. The higher lake Manasarovar (one of the highest freshwater lakes in the world), is the sacred lake, and is round like the sun. It related to the lake Manas in the Kashmir. The lower lake Rakhast Tal (one of the highest salt-water lakes) is the devil’s lake and has the shape of the crescent moon. These two lakes represent solar and lunar forces, good and negative energies respectively. Most importantly, the lake below Mount Kailash is the origin of the Sutlej, which flow to the south and west and eventually into the Indus. It was the largest tributary of the Vedic River Sarswati and its smaller branches rising from Ambala hills in north India.
