A rare sight of the formation of OM in the snow clad Kailas mountain in the Himalayas. The Kailas-Mansarovar yatra is just meant for catching a glimpse of this and not all are lucky enough to see it. The yatra is held at a time when most of the snow has melted but the snow on this part of the mountain does not melt. This is where (and why) people say that Lord Shankar has his permanent place.
