Paperback / Hardback

Bestselling author M.K. Ramachandran is well-known for his unique travelogues. Not only does he beautifully recount his journey but he also delves into history and culture, tying in various threads to show the reader the many elements that make India what it is.

The Journey to Adi Kailash is no different. While detailing his trek to one of the most revered mountains of India, Ramachandran includes interpretations of our history, culture, traditions, the Puranas and the Upanishads, as well as contributions by great sadhus, sages and rishis. He weaves in interesting stories—of how the Asuras came to India, the ancient technology of turning metal to gold, the ninety-five-year-old woman who is well-versed in the 144 courses of Kriya Yoga, the yogi who acquires the power to fly into the sky . . .

The Journey to Adi Kailash is compelling reading, and a book that holds a mirror to the greatness of India.

M.K. Ramachandran

M.K. Ramachandran is a bestselling writer from Kerala, known for his unique travelogues. He has dedicated his life to travelling in the Himalayas and is perhaps the only pilgrim to have visited all five Kailash, called the ‘Panch Kailash’. These are Kailash Mansarovar, Adi Kailash, Kinnaur Kailash, Shrikant Mahadev Kailash and Manimahesh Kailash.

Ramachandran won the Kerala Sahitya Akademi Award in 2005 for his first work, Uttarkhandiloode: Kailas Manasa Sarass Yatra. In January 2006, Malayala Manorama selected his book, Thapo Bhoomi Uttarakhand, as the best book in the Malayalam language written in the last fifty years. In 2009, he was presented with the Prof. M.P. Manmadhan Memorial Akshaya National Award. In April 2013, the king of Travancore, Uthradam Thirunal Marthanda Varma, honoured him with a ‘Raja Mudra’ (king’s knight) and bestowed on him the title ‘Himalaya Njana Satma’ (the good soul with knowledge of the Himalayas).
