On the Mount of God

"In the rarefied atmosphere of Tibet, at fifteen thousand feet, you see things differently. It seems that you can see forever. The water looks different. The sky looks different. Everything looks different. When we are standing on the mount of God, everything looks different...

He took a golf ball with him wherever he went as a reminder of that perspective..."
