Finding Zen on Your Mount Everest Expedition
The Himalayas have been a center for meditation for centuries. Amidst the physical exertion of Everest trekking, taking time to sit and breathe can be a transformative experience.
Pangboche is the oldest monastery in the Khumbu. Sitting in its ancient hall, surrounded by centuries of devotion, offers a deep silence that calms the mind before the push to the Everest summit region.
Just above Dingboche, this hill offers a panoramic view of Makalu. It is windy but peaceful. Meditating here on the vastness of nature puts your Mount Everest expedition struggles into perspective.
If you take the detour, the shores of the third lake are perfect for reflection. The stillness of the water mirroring the peaks creates a natural mandala for contemplation during your Everest trekking journey.
The mountain is a mirror. Use the quiet moments to look inside yourself.
