Once I woke up from a dream.
Once I woke up from a dream. In that dream, Jerusalem was the heart of the world, as is the case with certain spiritual ideas. I came up with the idea of testing this city and trying to figure out how many people in the city are called Shalom - peace in Hebrew - and Salem - peace in Arabic. If I translate the outcome into letters according to the Kabbalah, I may be able to find out why there is no peace.
For this research I used the Jerusalem telephone book. There were 345 people named Shalom. And there were 45 people by the name of Salem. I then contacted kabbalists in Israel asking what words can be formed from these numbers and what their significance is for peace. The answers were unfortunately different, the question remains open.
