At times, the path of awakening can feel exceptionally difficult, even impossible. But this is only the limited perspective of the ego. All things are possible when given over to the Spirit for healing, even what appear to be insurmountable challenges.
 
In this movie, three extremely skilled and disciplined mountaineers give it their all to reach the summit of a notoriously difficult mountain, called Meru. To accomplish this, they must be one hundred percent committed to each other, and to their goal. With their firm commitment, the Spirit uses their determination and skills to consistently achieve the miraculous.
 
Ascending the mountain is analogous to the path of awakening. Each step to the summit is carefully guided, and you do not go alone. Errors and setbacks are never what they seem; they are merely invitations to heighten resolve and strengthen in collaboration. Remaining focused on the goal and refusing to look back, it becomes obvious that there is no way but up!
