Leaves of Morya's Garden - Book 1 - The Call (1924) - 152:
Lonely stands the summit - never does the feeling of solitude leave it. Blessed are you if this feeling is known to you. You are on your way to Us. Yet the snowy summit feeds the streams of the plains, and waters the fields for harvest. Upon the summit does the sun bestow its first ray. And the moon is reflected in its glaciers.

However, in this case it is necessary to make honest observations. But the capacity of observation itself needs to be cultivated.
