“Now, near the Winter Solstice, it is good to light candles. All the nice meanings of bringing light to the world can be beautiful. But perhaps we are concentrating on lighting the world because we don't know how to light up our own lives.” KnowsWorldLightBeautifulKnow HowNiceWinterCandleLightingConcentratingLight UpHanukkahSolsticeWinter Solstice Author:Ralph Levy
“We have focused on the miracle-thing and I think we often overlook the message of Hanukkah. To me, the core of the holiday is the cleaning of the temple.... The accomplishment was in restoring the temple to the purpose for which it was built. Now think of the temple as a symbol. Perhaps it represents my life. The world has tried to use me for its own (perhaps good, but none-the-less extrinsic) purposes. But now I can rededicate myself to my own original purpose.” ThinkingWorldI CanUsePurposeMy OwnMessagesBuiltMiracleOriginalsFocusedCoreSymbolsAccomplishmentHolidayTemplesCleaningRestoringUsing MeHanukkah Author:Ralph Levy
