Himalayan Libri GmbH Himalayan Touring with My Guru

A heartfelt pair of journeys, far from everyday western life, deep in the Himalayas. Since first meeting my Guru, Anand-ji Mehrotra, in 2021, I have found great joy in being in his shadow, immersed in his radiance and learning the life skills of growth and evolving he teaches. I follow my teacher on two spiritual pilgrimages to ancient & sacred places. The Ladakh, India tour was on Royal Enfield Himalaya motorcycles into the lands where the gods rule and ancient history springs to life. Traveling throughout the mountainous Ladakhi region, we traverse the highest paved roads in the world, over 18,000 feet in elevation. Riding around a bend in the remote Nubra Valley we come across an enormous, 100 foot, brightly colored statue of the Buddha, sitting on temples grounds overlooking the entire valley. At the Lamayuru temple, an ancient structure, we were welcomed into the holy sanctuary to witness prayers and music by the monks, all under the gaze of a 15 foot, 1000 armed Buddha.The memoir of the pilgrimage to the headwaters of the Ganges (called Ganga in India) River. With the Guru leading the way, we venture into one of the most celebrated spiritual vortexes in India, if not the world. The pilgrimage ended up being a deep journey into the author's Atman (soul) as the magic of the Himalayas takes over.Come with us. Meet my great Guru, whose sacred knowledge has been handed down rishi to teacher for 5000 years.
