PRAYER FLAGS AND FULL MOON NIGHT
经幡和月圆之夜
HAVANS CONTINUED TILL LATE IN THE NIGHT
火祭一直持续到夜里
Till late at night i was sitting on the banks of Mansarovar and soaking in the scenery. It was really relang to be there and hear the water waves making lovely sounds. The lake had a beautifull silver colour to it and the snow peaks around were shining b in the full moon. If ever I could be as close to heaven, matbe this was it.
Totally satisfied and happy I went to my tent and slept off. As ag inst
to my feelings in the morning I felt that it was absolutely worth the effort, the time and the money spent to be here.
我在玛旁雍错湖岸边坐到深夜，沉浸在景色中。听着湖水流淌的美妙的声音，感觉无比的放松。月光下，湖水闪着美丽的银光，环绕着的雪山山峰也闪着光。如果说我曾经接近过天堂，那么此刻应该算是了。
带着无比的满足感和幸福感，我到帐篷里睡觉去了。同早上时候不同，此刻的我感到一切努力都是值得的，为了到这所花费的时间跟钱，都是值得的。
I slept peacefully!!!
我睡得很香！！！
MANSAROVAR
玛旁雍错
Lake Mansarovar lies at around 4550 mtrs or about 14,900 ft above sea level. It is one of the highest fresh water lakes in the world. It is relatively round in shape and has a circumference of appromately 90kms, depth of appromately 90 mtrs and occupies a total area of 320 sq kms. The lake freezes in the winter and melts only in spring.
玛旁雍错湖湖面海拔4550米（即14,900英尺），是世界海拔最高的淡水湖之一。它是一个相对规则的圆形湖，星期长约90km，深约90米，面积320平方公里。湖水在冬天结冰，仅到了春天才融化。
The lake surrounded by hills lies in the crater of the sacred mountain Kailash冈底斯圣山 in the north. Since Kailash is considered to be the abode of Lord Shiva Mansarovar is supposed to be created in the mind of Lord Shiva first, hence the name "manas" mind and "sarovar" lake.
湖被山环绕着，北边是冈底斯圣山。人们认为冈仁波齐是湿婆神的栖身之地，而玛旁雍错则是湿婆神首先靠思想意念创造出来的东西，因此，名字为 "manas"的思想和"sarovar" 的湖。
Piligrims till now believe that in the dead of the night heavenly bodies descend to Lake Mansarovar to have a holy dip. A holy dip in Mansarovar by yatris is suppose to wash away sins of a life time and one is born again. Drinking water from the Lake is suppose to be a cure off illness and mental agony.
朝圣者们到现在还深信，在夜深人静的时候，天体会来到凡间，到玛旁雍错湖里沐浴净身。信徒们认为到玛旁雍错湖中沐浴能够洗去生命中的罪恶，让人重生。而喝湖中的水，则能治疗疾病，抚平精神上的痛苦。
You can see gompas all around the periphery of the lake. Also part of the lake is a prected sight for many migratory birds. Even sacred swans can be seen near by the lake.
人们还可以在湖的星期围看到很多寺院。这湖还是迁徙的鸟儿的保护地，在湖边甚至能看到神圣的天鹅。
Mansarovar is also viewed by piligrims to be the starting point of 4 of the greatest rivers of Asia, Namely, Brahmaputra, Sutlej, Karnali and Indus.
玛旁雍错也被朝圣者看作是亚洲四条最大的河流的起点，即：雅鲁藏布江、 萨特累季河、格尔纳利河和印度河。
Mansarovar is considered to be sacred by Hindus and Tibans alike. One of the greatest Tiban saints supposed to have meditated here. Mansarovar in Tiban is known as "Mapam Yumco"
在印度教徒和人民的眼中，玛旁雍错是神圣的。一个最伟大的圣徒来过这里作冥想。Mansarovar在藏语中叫做“玛旁雍错”。
RAKSHAS TAL.
拉昂错湖
Or the Demons lake lies next to Mansarovar just separated by small hills. Paradocally, the Rakshas Tal receives water from Mansarovar through an underground channel. As opposed to Mansarovar, Rakshas tal is inauspicious to both Hindus and Budhist alike. Its a salt water lake and does not have any Monasteries in its circumfrence of 112kms.
鬼湖拉昂错 邻近玛旁雍错湖，它们之间仅仅隔了一些小山丘。虽然被山隔开了，但有一道水渠连接着拉昂错湖与玛旁雍错湖，因此玛旁雍错湖中的湖水通过这条水渠流进拉昂错 湖中。与玛旁雍错湖不同的是，印度教徒和徒们都认为拉昂错湖是不吉祥的湖。它是一个咸水湖，在它星期围方圆112公里内，都没有任何的修道院存在。
As per mythology, Ravana, the greatest devee of Lord Shiva of all time got to take Mt. Kailash冈仁波齐 as a gift from Shiva himself, provided that he didnt keep the mountain anywhere on the ground in between. Perturbed by this the gods pleaded to Ganesha for help. Divine intervention led to Ravana asking Ganesha to hold the mountain while he relieved himself. The task took much longer than expected and Rakshas Tal was born. In the meanwhile Ganesha put the mountain down hence Mt Kailash was saved too.
根据神话里 记载，湿婆神最虔诚的信徒之一Ravana从湿婆神那里带走了冈仁波齐山作为给他的礼物，并承诺，在到达都城之前，都不会将山放到平地上的任何地方。众神 听说后都担心Ravana得到这个山后便无人能敌了，所以他们去找Ganesha寻求帮助。神之干预导致了Ravana请Ganesha帮忙拿着冈仁波齐 山，而他则去做祷告去了。但祷告的时间比预期的要长，所以鬼湖拉昂错诞生了，与此同时，Ganesha放下了山，玛旁雍错湖也被挽留了。
Rakshas Tal apparently supports no life and a touching the waters of this lake hi highly inauspicious.
拉昂错湖星期边没有生物生存，并且，触碰到湖水也被认为是非常不吉利的。
