The Holistic Haggadah is a fascinating guide to the inner journey that the Passover Seder evening offers us. It is a daring commentary that challenges each of us to go down into our self-imposed Mitzraim (Egypt) and face our attachments and the false gods that confine us. It then beckons us forth to true freedom and a more meaningful relationship between ourselves and God. Besides the ritual question – “How is this night different from all other nights?” – the most common question asked at the Seder table is probably, “When is the food coming?” The Holistic Haggadah asks deeper questions: “How are you going to be different this night? How are you prepared to let this night change you?” Order by calling 054-4828817  90 NS In the US order here Haggadot are also available in Hebrew (70 NS)
