Could mysterious Kailash be Mt. Sumeru?


What's the most mysterious mountain in world? Mt. Sumeru or Mt. Kailash?

(Motech) July 24, 2024: The Mount Kailash Mystery: To date, close to 7,000 different people have scaled Mount Everest, the highest mountain in the world (unless that's K2). But there is one mountain thousands of meters shorter and not even in the Top 100 highest peaks in the world that no one has climbed and no one even dares to try to climb, not even the most experienced mountaineers. That mountain is Mount Kailash -- which has many features that suggest it may be the mythical "mountain" at the center of Buddhist cosmology, as well as that of Hindu and Jain cosmologies. The mountain is also central to the indigenous Bon shamanism of the Himalayan range. That mountain, the axis mundi, is Mt. Sumeru ("Good Mount Meru"). #kailash #mystery #mountain

Is this a mountain ET base like Mt. Shasta, CA?
Not a solid black mass but concrete with rocks?

Even Taoism, justly famous for its yin-yang symbol, is aware of Mt. Sumeru.

Mount Meru (Sanskrit and Pali मेरु, "Mountain High") is also known as Mt. Sumeru, Sineru, or Mahā Meru.

It is the sacred mountain of Buddhist, Hindu, and Jain cosmologies. It is considered to the center of all physical, metaphysical, and spiritual universes [1], [the axis mundi of a multiverse, which is not to say every multiverse in the omniverse].

This mysterious "mountain" (or magnetic lines of force extending out of the atmosphere and into space where the heavenly planes are physically located) is also mentioned in some scriptures of non-Dharmic religions such as Taoism, which was influenced by the arrival of Buddhism in China [2].

There is no clear identification of Mt. Sumeru with a particular geophysical location, but it is always located in the Himalayan or Aravalli ranges. Many famous Buddhist, Hindu, and Jain temples have been built as symbolic representations of this mountain.

Why is this one bead different than the others?
The "Sumeru Throne" (须弥座 xūmízuò) style base is a common feature of Chinese pagodas. The highest point (finial bud) on the pyatthat, a Burmese-style multi-tiered roof, represents Mount Meru.

THE NAME meru derives from Sanskrit and means "high." The proper name of the mountain is Meru (Sanskrit Meruparvata), with the prefix su-, resulting in the meaning "Excellent or Sublime Mount Meru" [3]. Meru is also the name of the central bead in a string of rosary beads or mālā [4].
