(Translated by a machine, not by me; soon to be translated by a human)

Right now, I’m pretty exhausted from building this website.

I’m not used to spending so much time in front of the screen, certainly not thinking about things like “which link will lead the user to read the book I wrote the fastest”.

It seems to me that all these screens are the complete opposite of the full potential of our existence.

If our “I” is the singular experience at any given moment in the present, then this is who I am right now.

Anyway, I will tell a little about myself, briefly.

My name is Roi (pronounced Roei), I’ve been here for 33 years; As of today, my base is in the Jordan Valley.

I was born in Ramat-Gan to a family of Iraqi origin. My father was in business, and the economic crises he experienced greatly affected him and me. My mother was a lawyer who went through a spiritual process, and became a transpersonal therapist.

I’ve always been very good at math and things like that, and I thought I should channel my talents to get as much money as possible and as quickly as possible.

During high school, I did a bachelor’s degree in mathematics, in a special program. To be honest, I was too busy being in love and getting beat up.

After the army I traveled in South America, I saw 16-year-old prostitutes with a caesarean section scar and young Israelis wasting the trip of their lives doing drugs and talking about drugs in dark rooms. At the end of the trip I had a deep spiritual experience (without drugs) that changed the way I perceive existence.

In the years that followed, I continued to make a living teaching mathematics at the academy and teaching in anthroposophical education, and at the same time I traveled all over the world, and took part in various social, community and ecological initiatives, in Israel and abroad.

I delved into diverse spiritual teachings, including Kabbalah, Anthroposophy, Buddhism, Tantra, Yoga, Western philosophy and more. I am a meditation instructor and engaged in mentoring, without financial compensation.

During all these years I also engaged in writing in different contexts, and published several books and articles.

Today, I decided to stop teaching math completely. Mathematics is a beautiful spiritual metaphorical world, but most of its practical uses today amount to more screens, more buildings and more money. In general, I decided to get out of the money system, and create a viable integrative alternative, both for myself and for others.

In recent years I have established several initiatives in Israel, which you can read about on this website.

Today, I work to the best of my ability to implement comprehensive solutions to the social challenges that characterize our days – wars, epidemics (real or fake), economic crises and the cost of living, ecological crises, technological takeover, physical and mental illnesses, etc.

On the theoretical side, I am working on a comprehensive essay outlining a practical way to establish a “will-based economy”, which does not rely on money, conditioning in return and measuring human actions; The essay is based on extensive metaphysical insights described in it. On the practical side, I design projects that will enable young people – who wish to calibrate their economic and cultural choices and create healthier social structures – to free themselves from the burden of money (through access to land and existing resources).

I like to dance, sing, play, draw, photograph, write, travel in nature and admire its beauty, swim, play tennis and basketball, take care of plants and animals, martial arts, eat from plants, and learn almost anything.

I am always happy to create collaborations and meet new people, and can offer a variety of skills at no cost, as much as I believe in the purpose of the project – building websites, comprehensive organizational consulting, guiding groups and building community resilience, personal mentoring, and more. Talk to me!

You can get to know me through the posts and articles, in which I interweave things from my personal life, and also through the photographs, stories and books.

The truth is, I got tired of talking about myself. And when I’m tired I go to sleep.
