Halesi helicopter tour

Maratika or ‘Chi ba mthar byed’ in Tibetan means “eliminates from death”, and is known as Halesi or “literally astonishing”, the Maratika or Halesi is rich in history, mythology and sacred geology despite its great isolation and it is a major holy place for both Buddhists and Hindus. For Tibetan, it is the site of immortality, one of the six supreme pilgrimage sites in the world where the great master, the second Buddha Padmasambhava and Dakini Mandarava obtained the realization of immortal life. Maratika was also blessed by the family of three protectors Manjushri, Vajrapani and Avalokitesavara. For many years the sacred caves of Maratika have been a very important pilgrimage destination for Buddhist seeking to engage in the long life practices. Due to its historical connection with Padmasambhava the Lotus Born Guru, and the family of the three protectors, it is particularly sacred within the Rime or Non Sectarian movement in Tibetan Buddhism in general and within the Vajrajana vehicle in particular.

The Maratika or the Halesi Mahadev is equally important pilgrimage sites for the Hindus as well as there is temple of great lord of Hinduism Shiva, the temple is located in a mysterious beautiful cave on a hilly region of the country in between the holy rivers Dudh Koshi to the right and Sunkoshi to the left.
