    Attempts on the Goddess: A History of Nanda Devi Expeditions

    In this second episode of The Nanda Devi Chronicles, we dive into the historical and modern attempts to climb the 'Sacred Heaven' of the Goddess Nanda Devi. From early British explorations to the resilience of Indian expeditions, we trace the journeys of those who dared to pierce the sanctuary. This history is marked by struggle and the ultimate cost of human lives, but for those who touched the summit, they entered a poetic realm often hidden from the rest of the world. We explore the stories and the exhaustion behind the climb, echoing the famous sentiment of Hugh Ruttledge, who remarked that reaching the North Pole was easier than entering the Sanctuary of Nanda Devi. Join us as we explore the price of ambition and the grace of the Goddess.
