They did not know what the man standing on the top of the mountain was doing for, and they wanted to know what he was doing there. A man asked: -What is the man standing on the top of the mountain doing for? Another one said: -I do not know, let's climb up there and ask him. After a hard climbing, they reached the top and met the man who was standing there. He was a monk. The first man then asked: -Are you standing here to wait for some friend of yours? -No. The second one asked: -You're standing here to have some fresh air, right? -No. The third one asked: -So, what are you standing here for? -I'm just standing here.
