The circuit that completes a lifetime of faith. Four sacred shrines set into the folds of the high Himalayas, each a different conversation with the divine.
We carry the doli when legs tire. We arrange the predawn slot at Kedarnath so your grandmother stands at the sanctum door as the first lamp is lit.
