Man's
quest for truth includes, besides his other efforts,
pilgrimages to various shrines and far-flung holy
places. This book has a special significance with
Manimahesh-yatra as its central theme. A wide coverage
of all important aspects of this yatra and in so interesting
a manner makes the book highly readable and a must
for the kit of every future pilgrim to Lord Siva's
abode on Chamba-Kailash.
