Sorry I took so long to respond--I don't have much time for ray-tracing AND
my family has been sick.  Anyhow, thank you for your help--I now have very
close to what I want and I can experiment to get the final product.

> P.s. What is it?

The scene is a graphic representation of the system of Sphiros (or sphirot)
which are a basic concept of Jewish Kabbalah.  There are ten sphirot and
each one in turn contains all ten in miniature etc. ad infinitum (the Jews
have been dealing with fractals since the dawn of time :) ) .  This scene
shows the bottom, blue, one containing all ten.  If you're interesting to
learn more, here is one source:

Here is a site with another image of the sphiros (made by yours truly):
