He climbed up a tall stone pillar and sat down to pray, but crowds of people started showing up for religious advice, distracting him from praying, so he climbed up an even taller pillar and had his food and water pulled up through ropes. For decades he endured rainstorms and intense heat, and legend says that when his mother died, he even had her body moved there so he could say goodbye. After about 40 years, he finally died, then forward in prayer, and he was buried by the same crowds he avoided in life.
