That is, it is a holiday that relates to the inner process that any person who works on developing their desire to unite, love and connect with others atop their innate egoistic urges can undergo.<\/p>\n<p>The transition is marked by the exodus from Egypt. Egypt signifies our egoistic desires. The time in Egypt of the people of Israel (i.e. people who have a desire for spirituality, &#8220;Israel&#8221; from &#8220;<i>Yashar Kel<\/i>&#8221; [&#8220;straight to God&#8221;]) signifies a stage of growing egoistic desires that disallow the people of Israel&#8217;s unity.<\/p>\n<p>Pharaoh marks the rule of the ego. Pharaoh is ready and willing to supply for every egoistic fulfillment we could wish for. However, Moses, which marks the desire for connection above the ego, fuels the people of Israel&#8217;s desire to discover the Creator, i.e. the quality of love and bestowal, in their unity. When we see that we are unable to unite, we feel that we are in the darkness of Egypt. In that state, we become ready to do anything at all just to break free from the egoistic desire&#8217;s rule. That state is considered as the escape from Egypt.<\/p>\n<p>In relation to a person on the spiritual path, it describes a stage where a person becomes ready to do anything just to break free from the ego, to rise above it and reach the Creator&#8217;s quality, i.e. love and bestowal. We throw ourselves into the sea, which parts, and we cross it, i.e. we cut ourselves off from the ego, and by doing so, by being above the ego, we become ready to work with it and transform it into altruism.<\/p>\n<p>This is the exit from Egypt we celebrate during Passover.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-lang=\"en\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Spiritual?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Spiritual<\/a> work_ML <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Passover?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Passover<\/a><br \/>\nEntrance and work in Egypt is in pursuit of unity although we&#8217;re <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/egoists?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#egoists<\/a> and try to connect selfishly.

Let\u2019s look at this holiday through the eyes of the wisdom of Kabbalah.<\/p>\n<p>In the Haggadah, the land of Egypt represents a relationship of separation. A sort of living in a pool of ego, exploitation and despair, a state where everyone takes care of their own interests leaving the others to eat bupkis.<\/p>\n<p>Israel represents the opposite situation. Life is full of joy, love of others, mutual guarantee\u2026 hang on a second, who are we kidding? Even if some of us physically live in the land of Israel, we\u2019re still in that inner state of Egypt.<\/p>\n<p>To be in Egypt means to be ruled by Pharaoh, the representative of the ego culture. He loves to turn us against each other, separate us, divide and conquer us, and eat Hummus every morning even though it\u2019s bad for his digestion.<\/p>\n<p>Moses, in contrast, is the representative of unity who doesn\u2019t stand a chance if he goes head to head with Pharaoh, unless he\u2019s got the entire people of Israel united around him.<\/p>\n<p>And now we are ready for&#8230; the Exodus. The burning bush, staff and snake, blood, fire, charoses, and a mighty arm&#8230; all it\u2019s really talking about is our choice between a reality of hatred and separation vs. a path of hope and connection.<\/p>\n<p>Because that is how it always worked\u2014either Pharaoh is ruling over you or you lend a hand to Moses. And it\u2019s true even now.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s take our government system for example: public representatives and political parties allow the Pharaoh to party without restraint. Everyone is at each others necks, fighting, insulting, back stabbing\u2026 this is exactly the state called Egypt.<\/p>\n<p>But if we decided to look for unity above everything, we will awaken Moses and see that it is possible. This is the meaning of coming out of Egypt towards Israel, toward connection and inclusion of everyone, above all the rifts and differences.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s face it; it\u2019s not going to be simple. We have to learn how to bite the bullet, swallow a few frogs, overcome ourselves, and make some concessions, like a family. Because this is what we really are, what we\u2019ve always been. One big extraordinary family.<\/p>\n<p>And the nice thing is that once we begin to think this way, we\u2019ll begin to feel this way. Because to be truly free means to be together as one.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-lang=\"en\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Spiritualwork_ML?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Spiritualwork_ML<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Kabbalah?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Kabbalah<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Passover?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Passover<\/a><br \/>\nMan contains all forces and qualities of nature: Pharaoh, Moses, nation of Israel, nations of the world &#8211; all these qualities together.

At a certain stage, after many attempts and failures, we find it impossible to correct ourselves, that only the upper force can correct us. Our repeated unsuccessful efforts in correcting ourselves teach us to lower our head and request what we do not actually want: love, bestowal and connection\u2014an opposite nature to our current one. We then receive help and transform into our opposite by starting to enjoy what we previously hated.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We have to go through this whole process mentally and emotionally with understanding, awareness and agreement. Everything we were once proud of, which we considered respectable, now seems the opposite. We discover our lowliness and helplessness.

It promises to lift us to all kinds of attainments and revelations. Afterward, when we start understanding what we need to give in order to spiritually complement ourselves, the period then becomes increasingly difficult, unattractive, repulsive and confusing. That is the period of <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Maror <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(bitter herb).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How can we endure that period? In the darkness, through many dangerous alleyways and connections, we need to remain locked on the spiritual goal, as if we&#8217;re seeking a small coin in a vast, dark field. The problem in this period is that we need to sharpen our senses, reach a new dimension and attain a new sense.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is a tough state. It requires constant encouragement in raising the importance of the spiritual goal, love, bestowal and connection, all the while egoistic goals constantly itch at us, demanding attention. It is a period when many people leave the spiritual path, and the only advice to get through it is to increase the importance of the spiritual goal upon the darkness and unpleasantness. Then it is considered that only the heroes (heroes [Heb. <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Giborim<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">] as those who overcome [Heb. <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mitgabrim<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">] the ego), emerge from that period, out of not having any other choice, and also out of a mutual guarantee to supply each other with confidence and support in the attainment of the spiritual goal.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Those who properly establish themselves to develop a new inner system of work in bestowal, detached from themselves, the egoistic system, reach what is considered as the path of exiting the exile to the land of Israel.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Maror<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is egoistic pleasure. To our ego, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Maror <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">is sweetness, delicacies and delights. However, when we want spirituality, we discover these sweet things as bitter. We discover that we want to reach bestowal, but we cannot. That is, the quality of reception becomes bitter. Therefore, our main work in Egypt is in chewing <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Maror<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. It is the feeling of being unable to exit Egypt. It is the constant effort to hold a desire and request for the spiritual goal. If we remain locked on the spiritual goal in this state, our spiritual desire emerges into becoming a true need for help from the higher power to grant us its nature of love, bestowal and connection.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-lang=\"en\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Passover?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Passover<\/a><br \/>\nTo feel bitterness in receiving: &#8220;And the sons of Israel cried out of this work.&#8221; But bestowal is possible and turns sweet only out of the ego\/Egypt, after receiving the <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Torah?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Torah<\/a> and correction in the desert.
