July-August 1994
3 times the week long program
"Aetgar ba-Midbar"
"Challenge in the Desert"
 The participants of the "Aetgar" learn to feel and move feelings - Yael Gavish, my "best pupil" and a hostess, teaches how |
The live in 7 pyramidal tents around "Yishma'el"
and cook for themselves. Yael shows them, how |
It was 3 times in a row, that we conducted this program,
me, Yael Gavish, Uri Goldin and another young man, whose name I dare not mention.
In November, when I was no longer part of the Succah, Yael facilitated her
own "Aetgar".
The following year, Pesach 1995,
graduates from the 4 "courses" of "Aetgar-ba-midbar" gathered
for a follow-up,
called "Khoter", rod, According to
Isaiah 11,1 : "a rod out of the stem of
Jesse".
I was not involved except for one program:
I suggested to do something tangible, physical, visible together:
make a path between the Succah and the Midbaron.
We were not allowed to do that, and just
walked,
hoping that this walking one after the other would leave a trace for a future
path.
I and one of the boys lie on the edge of the crater and enjoy looking down into the abyss , while Gadi, the photographer, enjoys this girl's hair in the wind, which is always strong here. |
 Though we are not permitted to make a path, as intended, we walk one after the other, to make a difference on the desert earth, and I show them, how to build a rugum, a path sign, by balancing 2 or 3 heavy stones. |
Until I'll come around to sculpt this page, (another part
see in "Training
Space")
I quote what some young people wrote after the week of "Aetgar ba-Midbar"
March 15, 2011,
Since I never came around to complete this page, I shall
use the free space on it
for inserting more of the old negatives which I let scan recently.
