“Kailash”

Kailash is the abode of Lord Shiva, where we are reading about the glory of Lord Bholenath. At the same time, Kailash is equally powerful in other religions as well. Because it is located in Tibet, Kailash is a great and sacred mountain in Buddhism too. Now I will tell you a few things about Kailash as related to Buddhism. We all know that this is the mountain that, to this day, only the great Buddhist yogi Milarepa was able to climb—through his tantric and spiritual powers. Along with this, let us read about the importance of Kailash in Buddhism.

In Buddhism, Mount Kailash (Kang Rinpoche) is believed to be the abode of Buddha Demchok (Chakrasamvara). This belief is deeply connected with profound tantric and spiritual significance.

Let us understand the meaning of “Demchok”:

Dem = Supreme

Chok = Bliss

“Kailash”

While giving the lingam at Kailash, Lord Shiva said to Ravana that if the Atma-Lingam was placed on the ground, it would remain there forever and could never be lifted again. This was all a manifestation of the Lord’s divine play (leela). God performed this leela through the ages only to give joy to His devotees. Come, let us read further.

“Atma-Lingam”

When Ravana reaches Gokarna, Lord Ganesha enacts His leela by appearing in the form of a young boy, pretending to graze cows. At that very moment, Lord Narayan, Shri Hari, covers the Sun God with His Sudarshan Chakra. Ravana believes that sunset has occurred and that it is time for the evening prayers. His eyes then fall upon the boy standing there—who was none other than Lord Ganesha himself.

Kailash”

Kailash is the place on earth where only divine grace flows from God. Whoever reaches this sacred land is forgiven by God even for their worst deeds. Upon reaching there, a person is freed from sinful actions and becomes worthy of God’s blessings. To go to Kailash is to behold God Himself. Kailash is a Himalayan mountain, yet the divine power that resides within the Himalayas can be truly experienced only when one reaches there personally. The bliss felt upon arriving there cannot be expressed in words.

When God was pleased with Ravana, He granted him the Atma-Lingam as a boon. Lord Shiva Himself, in the form of his own divine power, gave the Atma-Lingam to Ravana and imparted this wisdom—that when God is pleased with His devotee, He Himself walks alongside them. The only test for the devotee is to carefully preserve and uphold that divine grace.

“Kailash”

No matter how much one writes about the glory of Kailash, it always falls short. We have seen how, when God becomes angry with His devotee, He can shake a person’s very soul; yet when He is pleased by a devotee’s love, He gives everything. He bestows such boundless grace that it has no end. What a devotee cannot even imagine, God—an ocean of compassion—can grant.

This story of Ravana and Lord Shiva tells us and teaches us that receiving God’s grace may be easy, but preserving and handling it is just as difficult. After giving Ravana the Chandrahas sword, Lord Shiva asked him to ask for another boon. Ravana then requested that the Lord accompany him. Fulfilling Ravana’s wish, Lord Shiva gave him the Atma Linga. Now we know what the Atma Linga is.

“What is the Atma Linga?”

“Kailash”

Seated on Mount Kailash, the Lord performs such divine plays.
At times, pleased, He grants boons; and at times, the very boon granted becomes a cause of crisis for the recipient. Then, to end that crisis, He grants another boon. That is why He is called Bhole Baba—the Innocent One. He embraces both good and bad alike. Those who are rejected everywhere find refuge in His embrace alone. No matter how much one sings His glory, words fall short, for His greatness is infinite. Now let us read further about what command the Lord gave to Ravana.

“The Chandrahās Sword”

Ravana was not merely a tyrant; he was also a great scholar, a knower of the Vedas, and a supreme devotee of Lord Shiva.

When Lord Shiva witnessed the Shiva Tandava and Ravana’s deep devotion to his chosen deity, He forgave Ravana for his mistakes and granted him divine दर्शन (appearance). Then Lord Shiva said to him:
