The legends and lores of the Himalayas are as old as the majestic mountains. The heart of our culture beats with its folktales, kept alive for centuries through oral tellings. But then, just like the moods of hills, there is no definitive narrative of these stories. Although the centuries-old traditional stories share the same overarching plot, variations are delightfully surprising. Numerous versions around birds, animals, harvest, love, deceit, sorcery, and forces of nature are sung or form the themes for dance forms. But what remains constant is the belief. With every telling, the legends are restored, and thus their umbilical is once again anchored to their land. Breathe in The Scent of the Himalayas and wrap yourself in its splendour.
