Risking life on thrilling trek up south face of Mt. Kailash to touch the holy rock
Tibet Travel (Tibet Vista) Nov. 15, 2024: After touching the glaciers and rocks on the northwest slope of Mount Kailash, I headed to the south slope to touch her holiest rock and to worship at the 13 stupas [sacred Śarīrareliquaries] nestled inside the mountain's crevices. Two years ago, I made a wish here to promote the beauty of Tibet and its ancient Vajrayana Buddhist [Hindu and Bon] religious culture, and now I have achieved that.
My followers have grown to over 250,000, and more than 1,000 tourists from around the world have learned about and traveled to Tibet through my videos and traveled with me.
This trek up the south slope of Mt. Kailash was incredibly thrilling and dangerous. In August, heavy snow fell from the sky, and I nearly slid off the steep and slippery rocks into a valley more than 50 meters (150 feet) deep. I believe my efforts were worthwhile. As a Tibetan guide, I have successfully led tourists from all over the world in over 60 Kora treks around Mt. Kailash. This is my second successful climb to the 13 stupas on the south slope.
The 13 stupas, also known as the "Inner Kora of Mt. Kailash," are the holiest sites for Buddhist and Hindu pilgrims.
If YOU wish to explore Mt. Kailash in depth, I can take you there. It may be dangerous, but you can join me on this adventure for passion and faith, right? I believe in you. Contact me at jamyangtour@gmail.com. I will plan it all with you.

Tibet Travel (Tibet Visa) I brought departed souls [photos of the departed] to Shiva and kissed holy Mount Kailash once again [and visited Kyunglung, the home of the Garudas or avian beings]: a very personal documentary
...There is also gilt [gold] on black painted mural of Mahakala represented as Pranjaranatha (Gonpo Gur), the Sakyapa Protector, in the inner hall of the main shrine and also a few spectacular spirit traps. The inner sanctum of the monastery has frescos of the Sakyapa founders, painted in Kyenri-style of art and an inner kora(nang-khor). The paintings have been influenced by traditional Chinese art. The chapel is located to the right of the Assembly Hall and has statues of the past, present, and future buddhas. One floor above the main hall, paintings of the original monastery layout can be seen. The monastery shrine is flanked by the Khyedor Lhakhang and the Kangyur Lhakhang; the Khyedor Lhakhang has frescos of Hevajra, and Yab-Yum (tantric depiction of the sexual union) [2, 4, 5, 8]. Along the circumambulatory path around the inner sanctum... More
Garudas (suparnas) are the Avians or "Bird People" (Greco-Roman Harpies) in Buddhist, Hindu, and Jain cosmologies
In Greek and Roman mythology, a Harpy (plural Harpies, Ancient Greek ἅρπυια, Romanized hárpyia [1,2], Latin harpȳia [3]) is a mythical half-human and half-bird creature, often believed to be a personification of storm winds [4]. They feature in Homeric poems [5].
Garuda (Sanskrit गरुड, Romanized Garuḍa, Pali गरुळ, Romanized Garuḷa) is a Hindu deity who is primarily depicted as the mount (vahana) of the Hindu God Vishnu (the Preserver or Sustainer). This divine creature is mentioned in the Hindu, Buddhist, and Jain religions [1, 5, 6].
Garuda is also the half-brother of the Devas (light beings, deities), Gandharvas(divine messengers, angels), Daityas(Asuras), Danavas, Nāgas(snakes, serpents, dragons, reptilians), Vanara and Yakshas (ogres). He is the son of the sage Kashyapa and Vinata. He is the younger brother of Aruna, the charioteer of the Sun (Surya).
Garuda is mentioned in several other [Brahminical and Hindu] texts such as the Puranas and the Vedas.
Garuda is described as the king of the birds and a kite-like figure [7, 8]. He is shown either in a zoomorphic form (a giant bird with partially open wings) or an anthropomorphic form (a man with wings and some bird-like features).
Garuda is generally portrayed as a protector with the power to swiftly travel anywhere, ever vigilant and an enemy of every serpent [1, 8, 9]. He is also known as Tarkshya and Vainateya. More

(Matt Shoe) In this video, I set out on a ride from Islamabad to the Kalash Valley to find the last remaining (Indo-Aryan) Kalash people — one of the most original and ancient cultures in the region.
I rented a motorcycle from PakistanBikers and started the long ride through rainstorms, mountain roads, and small villages. Along the way, I met friendly locals, saw incredible landscapes, and got a real taste of life in northern Pakistan.
After hours of riding, I finally reached the Kalash Valleys — Birir, Rumbur, and Bumburet. I spent the night in Birir, learning about their history, traditions, and the stories passed down for generations.
The next day, I visited Rumbur, where I witnessed something truly rare — an ancient funeral ceremony that few outsiders ever get to see. This was one of the most meaningful trips I’ve ever done — a glimpse into a culture fighting to keep its identity alive in the modern world.
Jetsun Milarepa (རྗེ་བཙུན་མི་ལ་རས་པ་) was a Tibetan siddha, who was famously known as a mass murderer when he was a young man before turning to Buddhism and allegedly becoming a highly accomplished Tibetan Buddhist (Bon-infused Vajrayana) disciple.
He is generally considered one of Tibet's most famous yogis and spiritual poets, whose teachings are known among several schools of Tibetan Buddhism. He was a student of Marpa Lotsawa and a major figure in the history of the Kagyu school of Tibetan Buddhism [1]. He is also famous for the feat of climbing Mount Kailash. More
Mount Kailash (also Kailasa [a], Gang Tise [b], and Gang Rinpoche or Kangrinboqê [c]) is a mountain in Ngari Prefecture, Tibet Autonomous Region, China. It lies in the Gangdise Shan Mountain Range of the Trans-Himalaya, in the western part of the Tibetan Plateau. The peak of Mount Kailash is located at an elevation of 21,778 feet (6,638 m), near the western tri-junction between China, India, and Nepal. More

The festival celebrates the coming of spring and the fertility of the land. The Kalash people and the Kalash tribe are surprisingly progressive, and marital practices allow women to pursue love without social stigma. It's during the spring festival when many Kalash women set their sights on potential mates.
In stark contrast to patriarchal norms found in much of South Asia, the Kalash community promotes gender equality through practices like open relationships and marriage by elopement.
Bumberet Valley, surrounded by the Hindu Kush Range, which is part of the parent Himalayan Range, is the largest and most popular valley, attracting the most tourists, especially for the Spring Kalash Festival in 2025.
During Chilam Joshi I enjoyed Kalash dancing, singing, music, traditions, and fashion, with new tribal outfits being made each year for the celebration.
In the mornings, my Kalash Valley of Chitral travel vlog goes inside Rumbur Village and Bamboret Valley to see the DAILY LIFE of the Kalash before the festival.
I also visit a baby ceremony, an ancient Kalash Valley graveyard/cemetery, Kalash temple, and several Kalash houses along the way.
Join me to experience the special Kalash culture at the Chilam Joshi Spring Festival 2025. What do you think about these people? Please comment below and share with friends before their culture dies off.

(Be My Travel Muse) Dec. 30, 2020: What is an Energy Vortex? Where are Energy Vortices located? Why are Energy Vortexes spiritual? If these are the questions, I've got some answers! Watch this vlog to find out where some of the energy vortices/vortexes are located around the world.
(Smithsonian Channel) April 6, 2020: A warden of England's Rollright Trust claims to be able to tap into the special energy of the Rollright Stones through the medieval technique known as "dowsing." Let's put this method for detecting energy anomalies to the test. From the series: "Mystic Britain: The Rollright Witch"
Let's test this claim empirically.
Simple science: Place levels on hands to see if rod movements are due to unconscious tilts of the hand, not "energy" itself moving the metal. It may indeed be human sensitivity then translated into micro muscle movements, as seems to account for pendulum swinging. All that may be happening is that the body is the transducer, and the rods or pendulum are the outward sign of what our intuitive/sensitive body is experiencing. This "scientific" is not meant to debunk the fact that dowsing works, just to establish that it is not the energy acting directly on the rods but rather a "feeling" is being expressed by unconscious movement, the movement of the hands being the mover of the rods. It would be good to know because it is not human sensitivity, then simply place the rods on a mannequin or robot for an object test. Certainly, there are psi meters used in parapsychological investigations of allegedly haunted sites that should move where dowsers claim ley or energy lines exist. Not everything need be woo-woo if an objective test can be established to test a site. Bringing in a potted plant connected to a kind of (galvanic skin response style) lie detector connected to a sound synthesizer would be a marvelous addition to dowsing, the way British Jimmy Page used in "Whole Lotta Love" live at Madison Square Garden at their greatest performance.

The Most Mysterious Mountain in the World | Mount Kailash
(Harry Sahota) Premiered Oct. 13, 2024: This is the Mount Kailash mystery: To date, close to 7,000 different people have scaled Mt. Everest, the highest mountain in the world. K2, the second highest, is much tougher to summit, but people have done it. However, there is one mountain thousands of meters shorter and not even on the list of Top T00 highest peaks in the world that no one dares to attempt to climb, not even the most experienced mountaineers. That mountain is the possible non-mountain Mt. Kailash.

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 Jaincosmologies. 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
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 NAMEmeru 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].
