I was forty when Kailash called.

It did not call loudly. It entered my life as a quiet recognition—a longing for a place I had never seen, yet somehow knew.

Once a sceptic, I had spent years questioning rituals, idols, and the search for God outside ourselves. Then a mountain in Tibet began to draw me across continents, through thin air and difficult terrain, into experiences I could neither anticipate nor explain.

In 2023, my first journey broke open the shell of disbelief and brought me into the fierce presence of Mahadev.

In 2024, the second drew me into the Buddha’s compassion and the indestructible clarity of the Vajra.

In 2025, the third led me beyond the search itself, into the silence of Shivoham: I am That.

Kailash Mysteries: Soul’s Remembrance is an account of these three journeys, and of the dreams, encounters, blessings, and inner changes that connected them. It is also an offering to anyone who has felt the pull of an unseen place, or sensed something within that no name or identity can contain.

Perhaps you will recognise something of your own journey in these pages.

With folded hands and an open heart,
Nitin Kapur
