Historically, the lake became holy in Tibetan society because mother of Lord Buddha took by gods to take a bath in the lake until all the sins washed away and purified the body totally, where she saw a white elephant running around the holy mountain (Kailash) as a significant that Buddha was in her womb.. Pilgrims walking around the holy lake takes four-five days to make up one full circumambulation, the reason for that they prefer to wash out all the sins and have some good fortunes in their life. As per Hindu scriptures, Lake Manas Sarovar is a personification of purity, and one who drinks water from the lake will go to the Abode of Lord Shiva after death.
