Mount Abu The Playground of the Gods


Mt. Abu the playground of the Gods is a raised oasis in the Aravalli Range, an expanse of granite rocks covered with creation of trees ranging from deciduous to evergreen. The beckoning hills yearning travellers to come and indulge in its mystic and mysterious facades, Travellers who make it up the hill are elated to be able to walk on cloud 9.
After the initial torrential down pour on the 10th July, 12, (15.8 cm) the weather Gods are content to lounge on the heavily laded clouds mantling this Abode, and smile on creation below relishing the flickering and swirling foggy weather which is the hallmark of this habitat
Tourists are thrilled that this type of weather has held for so long, they know it wont be long before the onset of the main monsoons sets in and puts a damper on their freedom of movement through this fresh misty and green haven.
Three days ago the lake took its first “bhog” an offering by a human in the form of suicide. It is believed every time one soul goes this way the lake looks up to the heavens for fortitude in setting this spirit free in the form of an overflow to get it started on its journey to the realms of its next life.
