Hello and thank you for your time. I went to
a spiritualist church and received a message via a medium who give me the 3
wise monkeys in this message. This happened on the Wednesday. On the Friday
by accident I banged a cupboard door into my mouth, on the Saturday I was
stabbed in the eye by the corner of a photograph I kissed. on the Sunday I
was doing my hair and burnt the tip of my ear with the hot irons.( speak no evil. see no evil and hear no evil )a week
later I was in an area I would not normally have been and went into a shop
the 1st item I saw was a t-shirt with the image of the 3 wise monkeys.( I
bought it )I play a game on my iPad which you have to open rooms then find
items inside the room. I have been playing for years and it can take weeks to
months to open any one room. I opened one and whilst looking for the objects
I found yes the 3 wise monkeys. Why is this happening? Thank you Comments
from Webmaster This is just
the secret power of the three wise monkeys with a very strong message. |

One is a Meiji Period monkey totem and the other is a trio of kokeshi dolls

Hallo verzamelaars! Het heeft wat lang geduurd
voordat jullie iets van ons vernamen, maar nu gaan we echt los, in Oss! Je
kunt je nu meteen aanmelden: DOEN, het wordt weer gezellig! Wij willen jullie een leuk
programma aanbieden, niet te uitgebreid, niet te duur. Daarvoor hebben we het
Wijkcentrum Schadewijk gereserveerd. http://www.wijkcentrumschadewijk.nl/ Wat wij ook willen is
nieuwe verzamelaars zoeken. Daarom de vraag of jullie een oproep willen
plaatsen in jullie omgeving: een weekblad/regiokrantje/wijkblad of de
supermarkt. Voorbeeld: Spaar jij Horen, zien en
zwijgen beeldjes? Of ken je iemand die dat doet? Stuur dan een mail naar dvangrinsven@outlook.com dan ontvang je informatie en
een uitnodiging voor de verzamelaarsdag op 2 juni in Oss. Natuurlijk kun je
daar ook beeldjes ruilen. Een variant mag ook als je
dat beter vindt! We hopen dan veel
nieuwelingen te verwelkomen, maar jullie verwachten we natuurlijk zeker! Fijne paasdagen allemaal! Groeten, Kees Hermsen en Dimphy van
Grinsven

Hello, My late grandmother left my mom and me a few
beloved pieces. 3 monkey lamp was my most prized. My
mom allowed me to take the lamp and my wife and I treasured her. My mom passed
away unexpectedly and we ended up moving home from Colorado. The move was
awful my lamp was broken in the process. I found one image similar and traced
it back to you. Can you help

Hello from Russia! I found a mention of three monkeys in
classical Japanese literature. In the "Collection of Sand and
Pebbles" or "Shasekishu" (Kamakura
period, 1279-83) at the end of the scroll V there is a parable and a poem
about three monkeys: "One person has lifelongly
raised three monkeys, but he more need a fourth
monkey." Iwazaru-to Mizaru-to kikazaru Yo-ni wa ari Omowazaru-oba Imaza minu kana [monkey] "Do not speak", [monkey] "Do not see," [monkey]
"Do not listen" - They are found in nature, But [monkey] "Do not want" No one has met "Shasekishu"
dates very surely, so we can say that the symbolism of the three monkeys was
known to Buddhists of Japan in the 13th century. |

No Evil Monkey Conference 2017 To All the "Evil Monkey Attendees"
: I wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed
meeting all of you, and how much I enjoyed seeing the two collections from
both the Walker's lovely home, and also the Ottinger's. Thanks for two lovely meals, the
fellowship, and sharing the "civility" of what the "monkeys"
really represent. And my special
thanks to Bruce for even telling me about the "Monkey Convention"
and initially inviting me to attend several years ago when it was in KCKs
before this convention. It was amazing
that such a vast array of people from all types of backgrounds can find
common ground on the wondrous philosophy of the "3 monkeys"....wish
the world was really like that everywhere! Again, thanks to all for a delightful time,
two fabulous meals, and the sharing of fellowship and good will. I'll do that again! Blessings to all! |

Before the meeting in Kansas City, I went
through my Monkey research folder to brush up on the Monkey lore. I looked
at a few articles, but quickly realized that all I needed to do was read
through your Frequently Asked Questions. That is one of the best
writings I have ever read. It tells you everything you need to know and
nothing you don't need to know. And I am honored to say I know the

always tell them to read your excellent work. Thank you for all you have done for people

Bonjour, Merci pour toutes ces informations. Je
voudrais savoir où est le meilleur endroit pour mettre les 3 singes dans une
maison? Y a-t-il un endroit privilégié? Merci d'avance. Comments from Webmaster Bonjour
Christine, Merci de nous contacter. Il
serait préférable de demander aux trois singes quel emplacement dans votre
maison ils préféreraient. Mais malheureusement, ils ne vous entendrez pas, ne
vous verront pas et ne vous parleront pas. Nous devons donc prendre la
décision pour eux. Sur la base de l'expérience, le salon ou la chambre sont
les meilleurs endroits, en fonction de la pièce où vous passez plus de temps.
Dans tous les cas, il est conseillé de positionner les 3 singes tournés vers
l'est, car c'est la direction d'où ils se sont inspirés. Et cela depuis
plusieurs siècles. Cordialement, |

Emile, You have a great indeed unique hobby. Here is the
link to the column which was just published of Backpage
News from the Front, special columns that combine all
the zany things Israeli do, and galling, touching or downright bizarre
aspects of the current heightened conflict – weekly columns that are hosted
by Chelm-on-the-Med
Online (also published in the Times of Israel). If you like
this odd perspective of Israel – hardly what you get in the news – by all
means share with your friends in Switzerland. This is the
permanent URL to the March 3-9 column on the Chelm-on-the-Med
Online website – just posted. http://www.chelm-on-the-med.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=275&Itemid=275 This is the
'gateway' to my columns in the Times of Israel, where the latest
column should be up in a few hours - after the editorial staff review the
piece. http://blogs.timesofisrael.com/author/daniella-askenazy/ Best,

Greetings from Homestead FL, USA Comments
from Webmaster Thanks for
your question. The best suggestion I can think of, is to frequently search in
EBay for monkey mask or monkeys mask. If that does not bring useful results,
try with “3 monkeys” mask and “three monkeys” mask It is
possible that you will have to be patient for some time, but one day it will
work. Don’t forget
to send me a picture when you finally have succeeded. |

zware houten hzz aapjes
(ebbenhout?, zwart hout) Comments from Webmaster hartelijk dank voor de
foto‘s. Deze soort apen worden in een aantal afrikaanse landen nog altijd in
grote hoeveelheden voor de toeristen gemaakt. Ze zijn dan ook niet bijzonder
waardevol of zeldzaam. Zoals wij het beoordelen,
kunt u ze daarom best wel een ander kleurtje geven. Comments from Elisie Hartelijk dank voor uw
antwoord. We gaan ons eens wagen aan
een lichter tintje voor de aapjes. Mvg |

I have one 3
monkey brass piece I received but the order of the monkeys, from left to
right, is "See, Speak and then Hear. I haven't seen one picture of that
specific order anywhere. Is that an unusual order? Comments
from Webmaster: Thank you
for your question. There is no
“right” sequence for the three monkeys. Verbally in
English the order is hear, see & speak no evil, as it is in many other
languages. That
certainly has influenced three-monkey-sets-makers. But
basically the sequence for statues and figurines is up to the designer. For example
the well-known three monkeys of Nikko Japan have a different order, being
hear-speak-see. http://www.three-monkeys.info/1/WEBINFO/NIKKO.htm We do not
know of any statistics about the order of the three monkeys, but over the
years we have seen all possible variations. |

Hello, I
have question. Why for this symbol they used monkey? Why they didn't use
humans or different animals? Comments
from Webmaster: That is a good question. Thank you. The 3 monkey symbol originates from
Japan. In Japanese language, the three see no
evil, hear no evil, speak no evil monkeys are called sanzaru (三猿)
or sanbiki no saru
(三匹の猿). The names of the individual monkeys
are: mizaru (see no monkey) (見猿) kikazaru (hear no monkey) (聞か猿) iwazaru (speak no monkey) (言わ猿) The Japanese word for monkey is “saru", which sounds very similar to the
verb-ending “zaru", which means
“not”. In addition, “saru” also means
“go away”, which can be related to the “evil”. It is widely believed that the
appearance of the 3 monkeys in the Koshin
belief may have originated from this play on words. Hope this information answers your
question. |

Greetings to
you all. Recently I
had a wonderful Monkey experience and wanted to share it with you. I have
been a Rotarian for many years, and when I returned from Boston, I was asked
about our trip. When I told them I went to a Monkey Collectors’
Meeting, it was suggested that I give a program about it. It was my
turn to schedule a speaker a few weeks ago, so I scheduled
myself. I began by
telling them how my collection got started. Then I showed them a few
pictures of my standard monkey sets. Next I showed some of my more
unusual ones like a picture one of my wife’s students painted of Noah as he
was loading animals (two by two) on the Ark. He tells the three monkeys
that they will have to make up their minds. Then I showed a few non
monkey sets such as See-No Owls, Snowmen, and Ducks. Next came my practical sets like cigarette lighters, a clock
and a watch, lamps, candlestick holders and finials. (I am not a
Purist.) Finally, I showed some of my favorites such as the cloth
monkeys Terry bought and sewed together and then sewed their hands in the
appropriate places. I then
mentioned the history of the Monkeys by showing the 1636 carving at the
shrine in Nikko and one of the Koshin stone slabs. I mentioned how the
thought behind the monkeys is said to come from the Koshin Folk religion of
Japan with influences from Buddhism, Confucianism, and Shintoism.
Also mentioned how the word Zaru from the names of
the monkeys is a play on words with the Japanese word Saru
which means “not”. I then
closed with our group picture on the dinner cruise and a few pictures of
Boston. I want to
thank Emil Schuttenhelm and Bruce Kittess for their wonderful websites.
I spent a lot of time pouring over their material about the history of the
monkeys. I believe this history is what makes monkey collections so
special. As I often say (probably upsetting some people), it is a lot
different from collecting chickens or frogs. So, once
again, thanks to you all for the wonderful meeting and for bringing new life
to my love of my Monkey Collection. Hoping No
Evil comes your way, Bob McRae |

Why are a lot of monkey's displayed wearing
Moslem fezs? Comments
from Webmaster: The use of a
bellboy costume for a monkey, including a hat that looks similar to a fez,
goes back to the early 1900s. At that time
organ grinders were traveling throughout the working class neighborhoods of
New York and Europe, grinding popular music for spare change. They were
often accompanied by a small monkey that was used to draw in crowds and to
collect money. Capuchin
monkeys from South America were the monkeys of choice, because they were
easily trained and not aggressive towards humans. Very important if you want
people to spend some money on you. Because
these monkeys were small and not very noticeable, organ grinders began to
dress them in colorful attire, often similar to that of bellboys. It could
very well be that an artist misinterpreted the bellboy hat as a fez, or
perhaps even was inspired by it to illustrate the monkey wearing a fez. But to my
knowledge, the fez-wearing monkey has no significance by itself and I believe
it was one of those many cases where something was misinterpreted, imitated,
and evolved into an image that began showing up more frequently by different
artists. |

Verslag
van Susan over de HZZdag te Bussum op 19 september 2015 (Fotoverslag) De organisator Dolf van Kuler en zijn familie heette ons van Harte Welkom
in het Willem de Zwijgercollege. De dochters mochten onze bijdrage ontvangen
en kregen we van hen de button met onze naam. Eerst was er tijd voor koffie
met een speciaal HZZgebakje. Dolf had een gedenktafel voor zijn overleden
vrouw Marja gemaakt met haar foto en 3 vrouwenbeelden van HZZ erop, zodat
Marja er vandaag bij was.Daarna was het woord aan de meneer van Historisch
Bussum om ons over het dorp en zijn ontwikkeling te vertellen. Een 2e bakje koffie vonden we heerlijk en daarna had Susan, als nieuw
contactpersoon, enkele huishoudelijke mededelingen. Allereerst werd Bert
Willering bedankt voor het vele werk van jaren voor de HZZclub met de
traditionele “Merci” chocola, die hij altijd gaf aan de organisator(en).
Susan vertelde over de leden die uitgeschreven wilden worden en nog een
laatste groet, kaart met onze handtekeningen, van ons krijgen. Natuurlijk
kregen de deelnemers van vandaag de groeten van leden die niet konden komen.
Ook hebben we een nieuw lid, die nu niet kon komen. Marja Seegers, al jaren lid, was met haar man voor het eerst aanwezig. Ze
vertelde over haar verzameling en vond het leuk om nu eens andere
verzamelaars te ontmoeten. Dolf vertelde over het masker en het Chinese
wandkleed, wat hij en zijn vrouw Marja hadden gekocht tijdens de vakanties.
Het had hen de nodige energie en tijd gekost om het van de makers te kopen
zodat zij de reisbus misten. Het was de moeite waard! Lunchtijd! Deze was
gemaakt door de zonen en dochters. Dat lieten we ons goed smaken. Toen was
het tijd voor de FOTOsessie op het schoolplein. Bert mocht aan het woord. Hij had een hommage gemaakt aan Marja, die eind
2004 overleed. Marja en Bert waren de initiatiefnemers van de HZZclub die nu
voor de 24ste keer bijeen kwam. Het was een dierbaar aandenken aan Marja en
informatief voor de leden die nog niet zo lang lid waren. Ook het filmpje van
de HZZclub 2015 in Amerika werd getoond waarop we zagen dat Emil en Anneke
aanwezig waren.Henny van ’t Hul en Bert vertelden dat zij met hun verzameling
stopten vanwege verhuizing en leeftijd. Janke liet 4 aapjes uit Taiwan zien,
waarvan de laatste z’n handen op de rug/achterwerk heeft en zij te koop
heeft. Daarna kon de verkoop uitgestald worden op tafels en kon Ger, geholpen
door Sophie en Berre, de gelukkige koper loten.Velen gingen met leuke ‘apen’
naar huis en anderen waren blij dat anderen genoten van hun
HZZapen/beren/koeien/kikkers. We namen afscheid van degene die naar huis gingen en de anderen volgden
Dolf mee naar een bistro voor het diner. Voor we dat deden, spraken we met
z’n allen over de HZZdag 2016. Jean-Marie en Isi nodigen ons uit om eind
september bij hen in Val-Meer, België, te komen. |

Fellow No Evil Monkey Collectors! This is a reminder that our Eleventh
Annual-ish Meeting is just around the corner, to be
held July 9 – 12, 2015, near Boston! See
the details below, from our hosts Gail Strauss, Roz Slepian
and Susan Scribner. Early indications
are that this will be one of our best-attended conferences to date, so make
your plans to come and see your friends, as well as historic Boston! One of this year’s highlights will be that
long-time No Evil Monkey collector Juel Secilian is seeking good homes for her collection. Dozens of her pieces will be available via
silent auction and other avenues. My family and I hope to see you in
July! And thank you once again, Gail,
Roz and Susan, for your great work in organizing this event! MORE…… Gregg Ottinger |
