Let’s talk about your baseless assumption that literature on the Himalayas is a Sino-Pak monopoly or that such literature is merely rhetoric.
Those not born in the cradle of the Himalayas obviously fail to grasp that the Himalayas represent the soul of a nation.
The Himalayas are not tools for political rhetoric. They encompass a profound sentiment of devotion.
Innumerable ancient Sanskrit texts beautifully expound the magnificence of the Himalayas, but I'm choosing excerpts from one of the masterpieces, Kalidasa’s Kumarasambhavam. 2/n
