The fabled land, the paradise of Shangri-la, the valley at the northwest end of the Himalayan mountain chain, famed the world over for its beauty. Here the greatest masters of Shaivism flourished, scholar-sages whose works were studied all over the Indian subcontinent.

Here, 1100 years ago, the most benevolent and tolerant kings and queens ruled, patrons of spirituality, because of whose patronage we have works like the Pratyabhijñā-hrdayam (Translated by Hareesh in his second book, The Recognition Sutras).

And here we will journey on pilgrimage, walking in the footsteps of Abhinavagupta and Utpaladeva, enveloped in the energy of this sacred valley surrounded by snow-capped peaks.

This pilgrimage will unlike any other Hareesh has led in his eight years of guiding India trips.

We will stay in an incredible luxury hotel with traditional décor overlooking Dal Lake, taking day trips out to half-a-dozen sacred sites associated with Shaivism. The day trips will entail no more than 2 or 3 travel hours on the bus, total. We will taste cuisine unlike any you have ever experienced, while traversing a landscape that bears more resemblance to Switzerland than the rest of India, the landscape roamed by Lalleshwari and many other siddhas and yoginis.
