It is a matter of great joy for Hindu Society that such an excellent book, which describes one of its holiest pilgrimages, has seen the light of day. The photographs published in it are beautiful and inspiring. I wish every success to this book.

-- The Late His Majesty the King of Nepal Birendra Bir Bikram Shah Dev

“The book written by Shri Tarun Vijay on his experience of Kailas Manasarovar is extraordinary in content and presentation. His words have the power to bring the place alive and recreate the experience for the reader. He has also chosen the photographs, taken by him, with great effect. I heartily commend Shri Tarun Vijay for this achievement….”

-- Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee, Former Prime Minister

Shri Tarun Vijay has made a valuable contribution to the understanding of the 'holiest of the holy' part of the Himalayas. I have no doubt that it would lift the reader's mind to lofty heights and create in them a desire to bring about a cultural renaissance in India.

-- Jagmohan, Former Union Minister for Urban Development, GOI

Tarun's book: what a feast. Indeed an inspiration. It awakens us to our culture and it will surely enkindle many to set off on the pilgrimage themselves.

-- Arun Shourie, Famous columnist; former editor, Indian Express; Former Union Minister of State for Disinvestment, GOI

Tarun Vijay is one of the people who undertook the yatra. In this travelogue, written with verse and rhythm of its own and interesting clarity of mind, he relives, for the benefit of his readers, every moment of his memorable journey. He not only brings out various strands of Hindu religion and culture but also provides a clear picture of the current socio-economic conditions.
