Eternal Journey
 

Himalaya, the land of eternal snow. Tibetan highlands, the roof of the world. These are the most fantastic folds in the surface of our planet, as Sven Hedin said in his reports his journeys of discovery. However, these are also the natural events that are most deeply penetrated by spiritual and mystic forces, as we can see from the writings of Alexandra David-Neel and Lama Govinda, two spirit-ual searchers from the west of Europe, in whose footsteps we trekkers often try to follow. Many a trekker has turned into a searcher because, despite all the hi-tech equipment, the sheer power of these mountains has lost nothing of its effect - rather the opposite, in fact.
