Puja Ceremony
In the Himalayas, buddhists believe that before a climb you should get permission from the Gods living in the mountains.
Assistant “Sherpa”s never start the climb without the permission.
Puja ceremony which is directed by a Buddhist priest is all about getting permission from the goddess of the mountain; this time from Mount Cho oyu.
24 carat gold, turqouise, yak bone,
coral and a small piece from the
Cho Oyu summit.
