Some, no doubt, will find this video deeply spiritual, and perhaps "moving"...

...we call such people "crazy"

Incidentally, the weirdest idea I've ever heard about the lulav is that it serves as a spiritual "antenna" used to collect, or attract, or to otherwise draw in various and vital spiritual "energies."

Uh huh.

Though it's not without its own serious problems, I confess a preference for the old, disfavored view of that modern Orthodox thinker from Egypt, who said in his Moreh Nevuchim (3:43) that we take the arab minim to remember the fruits of the land of Israel and the happiness experienced by our ancestors upon emerging from the desert and entering the promised land.

(Problem: If you want to remember the fruits of EY, why not take them? The Rambam (there) gives an answer (easy to find; likely to maintain freshness in way grapes, for example, won't.) I don't like it much though its worth noting that the plain meaning of the Torah (Lev 23:40) seems to say that any fruit, from any stately tree, ie etz hadar, is acceptable.)
