In
In 1976, while I was fishing one spring night off the southern tip of
the Sinai Peninsula, along a reef, some 5 nautical miles from shore, my
very small fishing boat ran into a huge, sudden storm. I and my fishing
friend decided to try and navigate our way back to the fishing village.
The huge waves were getting more and more powerful and my boat was taking more and more of a beating as it carried us along the deep end of the reef, in search for the one and only natural channel that crossed the reef into the more shallow waters on the other side. Unfortunately, the sea was at its maximum low tide and we could not get over the reef due to the huge waves and the obvious and very real danger of smashing my small fishing boat against the reef. We went up and down along the deep end of the reef, searching franticly for that natural channel that was the only way we could reach calmer waters and head back to shore. After over a half an hour of searching for the channel opening and at a point of great despair, suddenly, we both could see, and then hear, a huge bottlenose dolphin that was swimming ever so close to the boat. I was filled with the deepest sense of joy as I realized intuitively that this dolphin was here to help save us and bring us to shelter. |

called out to my friend who was sitting at the front edge of the boat
and told him to keep a close eye on the dolphin, hoping he might guide
me. I steered the boat in the exact direction following the path of the
dolphin, which swam never leaving our sight. For some ten minutes we followed
him as he kept very close by and was clearly leading us along the deep
end of the reef. Then, as suddenly as the he had come, he was gone. We
slowed down and looked around, only to realize that we were at the opening
of the channel that cut through the reef from the deep end to the safer
and shallow side of the reef. We were both crying from joy as we navigated our way into the channel and across to the other side of the reef, into the protected and calmer waters. We were safe at last from the raging storm! We both knew that a miracle had happened and that the dolphin truly came to our rescue. We both thanked God for our dolphin friend and then started checking out the condition of my boat, the level of fuel etc. We found out that we had very little fuel. We then decided that rather than try and head back to shore we would wait a couple of hours, until dawn and hopefully a calmer sea. We took turns trying to sleep, and at the break of dawn we saw that the sea had calmed down and that it was safe to attempt returning to the fishing village. We arrived at the fishing village some 40 minutes later, on our very last drops of fuel. We were greeted by happy shouts of joy from the fisherman on shore. They had all been very worried when we failed to return that night safely to shore, and were in the process of getting a search party ready to go to sea. As we sat around the main fishing hut and shared our amazing experience with our fellow fisherman, we felt so very fortunate to be alive and well. Later, in the summer of 1978, I happened to be free-diving alone in the same area of the Red Sea. As I was swimming in the vast deep waters exploring the amazing coral reefs and endless shapes of tropical fish dancing in the deep blue, clear waters, suddenly, three mature bottle nose dolphins swam out of the deep towards me. For some 4-5 minutes, they kept on swimming all around, below, and above me. I was so overwhelmed with this encounter that I could not stop tears of joy, as these wonderful beings utterly amazed me with their playful underwater dance. Then they came so close to me that our eyes locked straight into each other. It was like a dream, like a vision. They seemed to be saying to me good bye. I will forever cherish those moments of infinite love flowing between us. It was that encounter with the three bottlenose dolphins that changed my life forever. As suddenly as they came they had left. I swam to my boat which was anchored some 100 meters away and climbed up in. I must have sat there for over an hour reflecting on what had just happened. It was these amazing encounters that forever bonded me with our sisters and brothers of the seas. I knew deep within my soul and mind that I was transformed forever by these extraordinary experiences and that my journey on earth will forever be linked with the 'humans of the seas.' These and other encounters with bottlenose dolphins in the Red Sea, off the southern tip of the Sinai Peninsula inspired me to commission the acclaimed visionary jewelry artist, Charles Tolsdale - who at the time was living in Jerusalem and headed the Jewelry Department in the Jerusalem Academy of Fine Arts - to create a unique collection of dolphin jewelry. Throughout 1980 Charles worked on this project for me, and, in late 1980, delivered to me this one-of-a-kind complete collection of sculptured dolphin jewelry. Now, after 22 years, I've felt an inner realization that time had come for me to share these masterpieces with humanity. This numbered, strictly limited, once-in-a-lifetime edition will allow some fortunate human beings to own and share with their loved ones a masterpiece that captures the everlasting beauty and grace radiating from our "brothers and sisters of the seas". I hope and pray that this once in a life time limited edition of dolphin spirit jewelry will inspire each and every one of you to go forward and further raise awareness and action towards the healing of planet ocean, mother earth and all creation. Peace |
