"Y-Y-Y" ="yekhidim
yotzrim yakhad"
this is a pun that gets totally lost in English.
Language is petrofied philosophy!
A whole world is hidden in the fact,
that the word "yakhid" - individual and the word "yakhad"
- together
have the same root.
Y is also a shortage for YHWH

Since I never came around to tell the history announced
on this page,
I shall use the free space on it for inserting more of the old negatives
which I let scan recently.
continuation from "the
Succah's third stage"
That's what I viewed - no light-pollution |
During
the first Chanuka when my little granddaughter (2) visited me, there was still nothing but the bus, enough water in the two fiberglas tanks (together 1500 liter), enough gas in the two 12 liter containers, enough solar electricity , and perhaps already a jeep, (the money was donated by my friend Anke) but no succah, yes, not even the idea of how a single succah would look like and be made of, leave alone the right composition of succahs, which would take care of the balance between Man and Nature. |

As so often, |
Guests in "Abraham" |
These were friends, |
I'm
still glad, that Dani Kish, the inventor and builder of the succahs,
convinced me, that the floors should be covered by gravel. At that time the provision of gravel was almost the end of my creation: The driver of the semitrailer from the town Dimona, who carried some 30 tons of gravel, wasn't sure about the direction, nor did he know, that the people in a jeep, whom he asked, would immediately report to the "Israel Land Administration". Before anyone could order anything, I went to see the director in Beersheva. His first words: "Within 8 days you are out! No succahs, nothing will be seen there!" After half an hour he promised me an agreement for one year.... On the one hand, it was my charm, which had enchanted him, but so often in the future, this so-called charisma didn't "work". I've come to believe, that very little depends on my doing. If it's the right time for a dream to become fulfilled, it will happen, If it's not the right time, it will not happen, no matter, what "Abraham" says concerning "vibrational match". |
"Ask, and it is given" means |
Some
more pictures of an event which gave me much joy: All children came on Pesach 1990, and the sons Immanuel, Uri and Micha, co-created a structure for a shower. The idea of a hexagon - reminiscent of a 3 dimension Star-of-Daved- was mine, and put to use also in later structures, in the "Eliezer" cabin and in the "Yishmael" cabin. |

the Succayah in "Glossary"
It was important to always see our human creations on the background of the grandeur of Nature's creations, like these:
One of the so-called "Waterfalls",
though I rarely was present during the hours or just minutes of rain-water
falling from them.

The edge of the Ramon Crater, which is closest
to the Succayah , is always magnificent, no matter, in what season or in what
hour of the day
When viewing the Ramon
Crater from above, one wonders, if this is really on Earth.
Moshe Klein, my friend, a mathematician, once mused: all of the present humankind
could be packed into the Crater.
