"I am climbing a high mountain, over steep snow-covered slopes. I climb higher and higher, and it's marvelous weather. The higher I climb the better I feel. I think, 'If only I could go climbing like this for ever!' When I reach the summit my happiness and elation are so great that I feel I could mount right up into space. And I discover that I can actually do so: I mount upwards on empty air, and awake in sheer ecstasy."
