But just as it was we, not our ancestors only, who were liberated in Egypt, so it is we, not our ancestors only, who live in slavery. Our slavery is not over, and our liberation is not complete. The task of liberation is long, and it is work that we must do ourselves. As the Talmud tell us, we, like Moses, may not live to complete the task; but neither may we refrain from beginning.” <em> </em> </p>\n\n<p> <em>-The Freedom Seder, April 4th, 1969</em> </p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Seder often ends with the words:</p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>LASHANAH HABA’AH B’YERUSHALAYIM</strong></p>\n\n<p><strong>NEXT YEAR IN JERUSALEM</strong></p>\n\n<p>Let us reflect on the meaning of these words for those who yearn for peace with hard-earned justice. We wish for next year in Jerusalem that is shared among peoples and religious communities whose histories are twisted together like an ancient vine.</p>\n\n<p>Today we say, next year in <em> this</em> Jerusalem.</p>\n\n<p>Wherever we live we find injustice, but there really is a better place, a promised land, that we as individuals and as a community can see and feel in our heads and hearts. The way to get from here to there is by joining together, working, marching, and sometimes stumbling, through the wilderness, watching this time not for signs and wonders, but for opportunities to act.</p>\n\n<p>May the spirit of this festival of freedom remain with us throughout the coming year.</p>\n\n<p>May its teachings inspire us to work toward our vision of “a besere velt,” a better world.</p>\n", "cliptype": "text", "clipsource": "Oak Street Haggadah, Providence RI 2014 ", "featured": 0, "featuredIn": null, "is_public": 1, "is_published": 1, "media": { "image": null, "audio": null, "video": null }, "thumbnail": null, "clip_section": [ { "haggadah_section": "Nirtzah", "slug": "nirtzah" } ], "likes": 0, "downloads": 226, "tags": [], "themes": [], "language": "0", "is_bookmarked": "0", "is_liked": 0, "meta_tags": { "title": "Next Year in Jerusalem | Passover haggadah by Keally Cieslik", "description": "Our simple platform allows you to create a custom Passover Haggadah, with access to unique content contributed by our community.

Maybe you could imagine that I am sitting there, and even though you probably won't see me there (but you might!), you might easily feel me there. One of the fine things that happens as our body stops is that our capacities to perceive become finer and finer. So such unlikely things as a visit from a person far away are quite possible.<br />\n<br />\nSo I am there. Perhaps you are asleep. Or not. Or perhaps I am asleep (though not now). Still, I am there. And I am aware of you. Gently, and wishing you well. I bring with me a number of helpers. My main spiritual teachers, for example, and their teachers as well.<br />\n<br />\nSo here we are, wishing you well. We wish you well as the body as it stops. We wish you well as the aliveness that arose from that body and offered you many adventures of being. We also--and deeply --wish you well as presence. It may be you have not yet recognized yourself as presence. Myself, I think you have, but it is good to have company, the company of others who know themselves as presence and recognize you as presence.<br />\n<br />\nBodies stop. It's true, they do. But presence does not stop. Presence is continuous. It changes shape and flavor but as presence it is always there. You, however much you change, are there. So we are there as presence noticing you as presence and wishing you well. By and by, your presence may let our presence hold you gently. Sometimes this looks like radiance. Sometimes it feels like warmth. Sometimes it feels like love. Presence within presence.<br />\n<br />\nPresence within Presence, close in and everywhere at once. Rest there as long as you like.<br />\n<br />\nMy love to you, my heart holding yours.</p>\n", "cliptype": "text", "clipsource": "P’howa", "featured": 0, "featuredIn": null, "is_public": 1, "is_published": 1, "media": { "image": null, "audio": null, "video": null }, "thumbnail": null, "clip_section": [ { "haggadah_section": "Commentary / Readings", "slug": "commentary-readings" } ], "likes": 0, "downloads": 276, "tags": [], "themes": [], "language": "0", "is_bookmarked": "0", "is_liked": 0, "meta_tags": { "title": "On Loss - P'howa | Passover haggadah by Keally Cieslik", "description": "Our simple platform allows you to create a custom Passover Haggadah, with access to unique content contributed by our community.
