Sikkim holy caves trekking and hiking tour
How did Sikkim get its original name, Payul-Demazog, “Land of Hidden Spiritual Treasures”? In the 8th century, Guru Padmasambhava spread Buddhism in Tibet at the request of the Tibetan king Khri-Srong-Die-btsan (755 – 797). During his travels through Tibet, he visited Sikkim, consecrated the land and prophesied that Buddhism would also become established in Sikkim after a few centuries. During his travels, he is said to have found “spiritual treasures” in the lakes and caves of Sikkim and prophesied that these would be discovered at the right time in the future and deciphered for humanity in order to make the knowledge accessible to the world. In the Himalayas, Guru Padmashambhava, “the lotus-born”, is also known simply as “Guru Rimpoche” and is revered in Sikkim and Tibet as the “second Buddha”, the incarnation of the historical Buddha Shakyamuni.
