from chapter 11, pgs. 342-343, note 10:
 
The White Snow Mountain, [[Kangkar Tise]] ([[gangs dkar ti se]]), [[Mt. Kailash]] (literally 'Silver Mountain'), is one of the world's great holy mountains, sacred to [[Hindus]] and Buddhists alike.  It is one of the so-called "[[Three Holy Places of Tibet]]", associated with the body, speech, and mind aspects of [[Chakrasamvara]] and [[Vajravarahi]].  The other two are [[Lapchi]] ([[la phyi]]) and [[Tsari]] ([[tsa ri]]).  These three are also listed among the "[[Twenty-four Great Sacred Places]]" (Tib. - [[gnas chen nyer gzhi]]), (Skt. - ''pitha'') of the world, [[Mt. Kailash]] being identified as [[Himavat]], [[Lapchi]] as [[Godhavari]], and [[Tsari]] as both [[Caritra]] and [[Devikota]].  There are several descriptions of and guides to [[Mt. Kailash]], including one written by [[Konchog Tendzin Chokyi Lodro]], the [[sixth Drigung Chungtsang]] ([['bri gung chung tshang dkon mchog bstan 'dzin chos kyi blo gros]], 1829-1906), and a recent one composed by [[Choying Dorje]] (1990), hereafter quoted as MK.
