“ההתבוננות בברואים חיוב ומביא את האדם להכיר את מציאות הבורא יתברך ואת אחדותו”

“Contemplation into Hashem’s creations is obligatory,
as it enables man to recognize the blessed Creator’s essence and oneness”

Hashem’s presence is everywhere. We need only to be cognizant and mindful of it. Our bodies, everything our eyes focus on and all our surroundings are witness to Hashem’s unlimited ingenuity, design and creativity. He is in total control of His entire universe, constantly sustaining and replenishing all that is contained within it. Be it human life, animal life, plant life and anything else you can think of. All that is above us, below us and all in between, is under his full guidance and supervision every moment.

The original intent in photographing these plant life and scenic images was simply to document for myself the beauty Hashem created in this world and to have it serve as a constant reminder, not to take common everyday sights for granted. After further examination and magnification however, I discovered the concealed exquisite artistic design Hashem created within every plant, that regularly escapes the naked eye. I then decided this most be shared.

A Zoom feature has therefore been provided, to allow you to experience and view up close this magnificent hidden world. You will marvel at what unfolds before your eyes, unfathomable beauty and design, you never saw or knew existed.

How do we show Hashem our appreciation, for giving us such a beautifully designed world to live in and the ability to see His magnificence continuously? Hopefully these revelations will  strengthen our faith, closeness and connection with our Creator, to live in constant gratitude. Can we ever take anything for granted again?

Hashem could have designed our entire  world very differently. Imagine, just plain sand and dark earth all around. No green grass, no trees, no leaves, no colorful flowers, no bushes; everything desert like, looking the same, all the time, everyday. Instead Hashem chose to make our world interesting, colorful, exciting, beautiful, enduring and forever changing, just to insure that we would never become bored. It is really unbelievable when you think about it. All vegetation, with all its varied shapes, sizes and pigmentation grows out of just one ingredient, earth. How can just one ingredient produce such an abundance of bounty, diversity and beauty? How can endless world sustenance be  extracted from just one source?

We really have so much to be thankful for.

The color of the sky and movement of the clouds is forever changing. Wind power, air quality, weather and temperature is constantly changing. All the scenery around us is in constant change. People are constantly growing and changing. Seasons change and along with it our climate. Everything, is in a constant state of change. Hashem  specifically made it that way, in order to keep our lives exciting and interesting all the time.

How every living organism in His creation has the ability to recycle and  replenish itself is truly amazing. Wonders of wonders. Something to marvel at. All orchestrated by Hashem, so that we may live with peace of mind and tranquility, to study His Holy Torah, perform His Mitzvos and serve Him in joy, with all our hearts and soul. To constantly be aware of Him, recognize Him through His creations and appreciate His apparent presence everywhere, all the time, wherever we may be. After just viewing this small presentation, can any thinking human being doubt that the creator Hashem, created it all?
