One of the most profound moments of my life was 25 years ago, after a 5 day trek, hiking down into the Kali Gandaki Gorge in Nepal, the sun setting creating an eternal glow on the world surrounding me.It was a long day, coming down from 9000 feet. There was fear and the vast darkness of the night began to envelop me ... yet there was this lightness of being, this profound sense of being, that I was moving towards
... ... As i descended, there was the incredible heavenly presence of Mount Macchapucchre (The Fishtail Mountain) glowing at the far end of the gorge -- never knowing if I would get there, but seeing it in the distance was enough for my soul....
