Memories "...In Hebrew, the word for man is "zachar." The word for memory is "zecher." Man is memory. People who suffer memory loss through illness, accident, or through compensation mechanisms of forgetting their traumatic past, they don't just misplace their keys. They lose themselves. They become lost and adrift in time, because without memory, the current moment has no context, and no meaning....." Rabbi Nachum Braverman Current moment is only a point between two infinities: the past and the future. All existing knowledge exists in three dimensions: It is known to every man, what he knows already. It is known, what he doesn't know yet. It is unknown, what he doesn't realize that he doesn't know yet. To discover this third dimension is a challenge of eternal destiny. Destiny is not a matter of chance, it is a matter of choice. To make a right choice in every chance that comes, this is a matter of Wisdom. Wisdom is the gate to infinity. There is a time to have and use the power of beautiful dreams and visions, to make them all come true, to execute the most outstanding projects, to fulfill the most incredible missions;but then to have the strength to loose them all, to be silent while seeing their destruction, to sink into loneliness and having no more hope for anything else, to fight to survive against all odds, to wait for understanding of why so many moments of pain and fear have to happen in life, and why life seems to be so short. There is a time in life to ask for the first time the question: why, and how? There will be a time to find out what is the real and right answer to the questions of why and how.
Daily quest of collecting all elements of my past and their consequences for today. All dimensions of a spherical picture of understanding can be disclosed by placing all the pieces of a jigsaw puzzle together. It takes a time of concentration, in a silent separation from negative emotions and a disturbed mind which are influenced by a continual daily life and its troubles. To finally begin to sense in reality Him, the source of all forces, that stimulate all my life till now. There is always some indication given ifrom past patterns of events indicating future destiny. Discovering this meaning of my past and to close my forty-years in this chapter of my life I am now ready for the quiet new beginning. This is an important challenge. I want to be ready to enter the next chapter. To be sensitive not to miss this time with all signs supporting the right directions to go. To soften inside and to be able to hear. To focus the mind and to see the invisible dimensions of life. To balance perfect harmony between my will, my mind and my emotions. To be able at the end of this next chapter to say: "It is done". Anyhow, it will only be a short voyage through this dimension of life space - TIME.
"In all you do, remember the end of your life, and then you will never sin" Sirach 7:36
