What does running a Minyan with your decorum rules and your timing have
to do with cancelling the 7th hakafa to mourn a tragedy? The
premise of the piece that you posted is to have some mourning /awareness
of tragedy during the Chag. Â That is what I am commenting
on. We can have another conversation about the halalchically
appropriateness of the various practices done in many shuls on Simchas
Torah. </blockquote><br>
One more time, I did not write the email that you are referring to,
and I personally never advocated cancelling the 7th HaKafa.
However, if I recall correctly, there were places that made only 3
Hakafos and some 5, so what is the big deal?<br><br>
The entire ST has evolved and IIRC correctly 7 hakafos is not in stone.
