North India: Ladakh # 4: Hemis Monastery, TshoMoriri lake tour (sout-east Ladakh)
Normally we never travel to India in June. Much too warm. But this trip is a real trip to the Himalayas/Ladakh. The passes to Ladakh are often closed till late May - early June en open till September - October. So the timeslot in which you can travel by car to Ladakh is June-July-August. From Delhi and the famous Hindu pilgrimage city Haridwar on the Ganges, we will travel to the residence of the Dalai Lama (Dharamsala) and the hippie haven Manali. From Manali we will travel over land to Leh, Ladakh. Along the way we will cross the second highest mountain pass for cars in the world.
In Ladakh we stay some days in Leh and we make a tour in the Sham Area. We visit Lamayuru monastery, beautifully located deep in the mountains, the Dards of Dah Hanu, the three most beautiful monasteries in the Indus Valley (Thiksey, Takthok and Hermis), Tsho Moriri, a turquoise blue lake at 4530m altitude at the centre of the nomads area, Tsokar lake and Korzok.
We travel to Leh over land because it is the best way to slowly get used to the altitude, and the best way to see the ever changing landscapes.
Part 4:
Stage 4 brings us a meeting with the dancing monks of the beautifully situated Hemis monastery. The 17th-century Hemis monastery (3650 m, 45 km from Leh) is the largest and richest monastery in Ladakh.
Furthermore, with a three-day excursion to the Tsh Moriri lake. The 4530 m high turquoise-blue lake is located in the heart of the nomadic area Korzok. We meet different nomad communities. The trip to the lake leads through the Indus valley, through stunning gorges, across high passes and plains. Many beautiful lakes in an indescribable beautiful landscape.

Hemis monastery complex - Ladakh
Hemis Monastery existed before the 11th century. Naropa, the pupil of the yogi Tilopa, and teacher of the translator Marpa is connected with this monastery. A translation was made by A. Grünwedel (Nӑro und Tilo,: Festschrift Ernst Kuhn, München 1916) of Naropa's biography that was found in Hemis monastery.
In this manuscript Naropa (or Naro) meets the dark blue (Skr.: nila: dark blue or black) Tilopa (or Tillo), a tantric master, who gives Naropa 12 great and 12 small tasks to do in order to enlighten him to the inherent emptiness/illusoriness of all things. Naropa is depicted as the abbott of Nalanda (F. Wilhelm, Prüfung und Initiation im Buche Pausya und in der Biographie des Naropa, Wiesbaden 1965, p. 70), the university-monastery in today's Bihar, India, that flourished until the sacking by Turkish and Afghan Muslim forces. This sacking must have been the driving force behind Naropa's peregrination in the direction of Hemis. After Naropa and Tilopa met in Hemis they travelled back in the direction of a certain monastery in the now no longer existing kingdom of Maghada, called Otantra which has been identified as today's Otantapuri. Naropa is consered the founding father of the Kagyu-lineage of the Himalayan esoteric Buddhism. Hence Hemis is the main seat of the Kagyu lineage of Buddhism.
In 1894 Russian journalist Nicolas Notovitch claimed Hemis as the origin of an otherwise unknown gospel, the Life of Saint Issa, Best of the Sons of Men, in which Jesus is said to have traveled to India during his lost years. According to Notovitch, the work had been preserved in the Hemis library, and was shown to him by the monks there while he was recuperating from a broken leg. But once his story had been re-examined by historians, Notovitch confessed to having fabricated the evidence. Bart D. Ehrman states that Today there is not a single recognized scholar on the planet who has any doubts about the matter. The entire story was invented by Notovitch, who earned a good deal of money and a substantial amount of notoriety for his hoax.
