Jewish Cemetery and Monument

After Raya, 1b wanted us to produce a monument for our self, this time,we had to visit the cemetery of the most intelligent races in the world- Jewish.

According to wikipedia, the Jews (Hebrew: יְהוּדִים‎ "Yehudim" IPA: huːdiːm), also known as the Jewish people, are a nation and ethnoreligious group originating in the Israelites or Hebrews of the Ancient Near East. The Jewish ethnicity, nationality, and religion are strongly interrelated, as Judaism is the traditional faith of the Jewish nation.[6][7][8] Converts to Judaism, whose status as Jews within the Jewish ethnos is equal to those born into it, have been absorbed into the Jewish people throughout the millennia.

In the trip, I started to think about the meaning of life, is it too short or too long for us? In the long journey of life, what should we do to appreciate the people around us? The answers are still in finding process....

The monuments at there had various type of shape, it showed the ancient beauty and aesthetic element. In every monument, laying a human being who used to live at 19 centuries.

After the journey, my mind cannot be peace....

My monument- The inspiration of life.

After the trip, I had come out my monument- inspiration of life. You can see there were two balls in my monument, it represented the two world, the hell and paradise. Actually, the hell and paradise can not be separated, their relationship are connected. The spiral shape around two balls are the ways directed to this 2 world, different peoples had different ways to come this 2 worlds according to what had they done when they alive. The inspirations come out from the Buddha Theory- Karma.
