Many pilgrims claim to have seen Lord Shiva and Parwati come alive on a Full Moon night and take a holy dip in "Mansarovar lake." Pilgrims who have seen this can't believe their eyes, as on a full moon night, there is divine madness and serene beauty around lake Mansarovar as if Moon God himself wants to visit this place to pay tribute to mighty Shiva.
Lord Shiva and the goddess "Parvati" are said to have taken a bath in this lake. Many pilgrims believed to have seen the god and Goddess taking a holy dip and holy water being dispersed in the morning between 3-5am in bhram mouhrat on a full moon night at a special point around Lake Mansarovar, just like when a human takes a holy dip and bathes in the lake and a "splash" is generated.
What will you call such stories, a complete myth or faith? Whatever it is if you want to see heaven while on earth, Kailash Mansarovar Yatra on a full Moon night will make you believe you lived a day in heaven. “If you can really be with Kailash even for a few moments, life will never again be the same for you.
