Spiritual Rights Foundation

Academy For Psychic Studies

Meditation CDs

    At sundown on Friday April 10, Jews all over the world celebrated the Passover Holiday. On Monday, April 13, a Passover Seder was held for the home-schooled children at The Spiritual Rights Foundation in Berkeley. The Seder exposed the students to a different religion and culture than that to which they are accustomed. The leaders of the service were Rev. Rick Greer and myself.

    Though this celebration was about an external event in history, it has many internal applications. The major purpose of the Seder was to help each participant experience in their own way what it was like to move from slavery into freedom. The kids were encouraged to relate ways in their own lives they didn't feel free. Since the founding principle of the Academy is "Freedom is the essence of life," this lesson related well.

    Passover began with lighting the candles and singing songs. Then the meaning of Passover, which is to commemorate freedom from slavery, was opened for discussion. The kids were asked if they knew what it meant to be a slave? Someone said, "Yes, it is like the blacks were slaves in America." Passover is celebrated to remind all people that there was slavery in Egypt and that God intervened to set the Hebrews free from bondage. The theme is applicable to people who are not free anywhere in the world.

    Each child had a chance to read a portion of the service. The Seder was particularly informal and everyone had a opportunity to ask questions about what was going on. There were many good questions asked.

    The symbols of Passover included the lamb shank, bitter herbs, egg, parsley and chopped apples, walnuts and honey (to represent the mortar used in building the pyramids). These were reminders of the underlying spiritual message of "Let my people go."  The service proceeded to the plagues that were imposed upon the Egyptians, including the blood of the lamb that was placed upon the doorposts of the Hebrew slave homes.

    The kids took pictures throughout the celebration. A picture of myself conducting the service was taken and passed around later that evening with the caption, "Rabbi Mordechai in a religious trance of his own making." My family line energy had been activated by the experience and I received a healing afterwards as the energy cleaned out.

    The Seder concluded with the song, "Dayenu", which means, "It would have been enough." "Dayenu" is a song of thanks which refers to the miracles God performed to free the slaves.
