Full description

“Meditating, always like the great Saint. Completely detached and completely one, with the universe.

You are taller than anyone,

Stronger than anyone.

Thunder can't shake you nor can the clouds reach you.

You are fearless.

You are at the highest state, yet you are down and hold the strongest attachment with our Mother Earth.

You are Ego-less.

Your purity make the Nature run through you and virgin snow have the honor to make the beautiful scarf for you.

You are absolutely pure.

You witness all our drama, forgiving always no matter what and keep showering your blessings with the great treasure of Nature and for the survival of life in this heavenly planet of Earth.

We salute you O’ Great Saint - The Great Himalayas.”

― Ricky Saikia
