WHY PEOPLE CLIMB THE MOUNTAIN?

Man takes delight in overcoming obstacles. It presents great difficulties.

Mountains are a means of communication with god.

There are three qualities that played a major role in climbing mountain:-• Endurance• Persistence• Will power

ADVENTURE & RISKY BUT PLEASUREABLE

It is a brutal struggle with rock & ice.It gives the sense of battle fought & won.

CONCLUSIONS

There is another summit that is in your own mind.

It provides us the inspiration to face life’s ordeals with determinations.
