A map to a pathway: Dear You[1], We can tell each other how our life has been, which in essence (and writ small) is a tiny postcard, or map of where/what we’ve done and how we got there. The Earth is a single globe, and everything is One (everyone understands this in their own way, but we mostly agree that All is Greater than the self which separates itself from it). This means that every map in...
[Editor: Has potential, but lacks momentum until a vector is adumbrated for the answer] Every year Edge.org designs a question for the leading intellectuals and innovators to pit against their visions, with the hope that the rest of us may thus gain some insight into their mind and understanding[I]. After deliberate deliberation, we will be reincarnating our approach which had become stale and...

Freedom vs Restriction Both self-annihilate on...

The rules are simple and powerful, meaning that the wedding presently underway was not merely a solemn vow of love and faithfulness, but also a merger such as had never been seen since the Deepfriers and Brunches fusioned through marriage six generations past.

But I have never thought of anything more specific than the most...

There have been 3329 years since Exodus, 525 years since the Spanish expulsion, 79 years since Kristallnacht. 69 years since Independence, 50 years since the unification of Jerusalem.

{Part 1 – 26/10/2016} There are 22 Hebrew letters, plus 5 final variants. They are given numerical values. I don’t know if this is commonly thought by those who are better studied. This isn’t a proof, it’s a thought trail, followed by some demonstrations. Why are there only 4 letters in the 100’s order? There are 10 sefirot, but how would they fit? First thought: The...
