Pesach Seder Prep Karpas is the true beginning of the Seder experience, when we encounter the paradox of this night - the newness and pain, rebirth and suffering, growing and drowning. Here we begin to feel the expansive space that holds the totality of this moment, and becomes the ground from which we can hope to be redeemed. ***** Please support Rabbi Ami and this podcast by contributing here, designating “Awakening”: https://www.paypal.me/shefapodcastnetwork  This podcast is supported in part from a grant from the Hadar Institute.

Spiritual guidance and preparation for the Passover seder. Finding Seder/"order" amidst chaos, creating holiness in the here and now.

Kadesh: Making This Moment Sacred

The Sages teach that the salvation of Purim has something to do with Moshe being born and dying in the month of Adar. They also teach that Purim is the day of true acceptance of Torah, when the event of Mount Sinai was ultimately fulfilled. In this very personal rendering, R' Ami explores the themes of birth and death, of traumatic separation and loss of self, and the possibility of a Torah that emerges when a self is expressed on the other side of that trauma. 

Purim: Silence, Trauma and the Birth of Torah

Jacob's character is one of paradox and pulling polarities. He is the youngest and the oldest, he is a man of truth and is embroiled in deceit, he is Yaakov and is Yisrael. Here we explore the competing energies that pull us in different directions, and the aspects of ourselves that hold polarized identities, and the possibility of touching a wholeness that encompasses both ends of the spectrum. ***** Please support Rabbi Ami and this podcast by contributing here, designating “Awakening”: https://www.paypal.me/shefapodcastnetwork  This podcast is supported in part from a grant from the Hadar Institute.
