Without question, it’s the best commentary on the Haggadah that I’ve ever read. The comments from your family especially make it very sweet and real. I like your hiddushim (originality) very much, like your drash on the Yin and the Yang of the festival cycle and your eclectic style, drawing from your whole experience of life.  I hope it sells at least 600,000 copies.

The Holistic Haggadah – don’t leave Mitzraim without it!

About the Haggadah:

THE HOLISTIC HAGGADAH is a unique and fascinating guide to the inner journey that the Passover Seder evening offers us.  Dr. Michael Kagan, a teacher of the holistic approach to living Judaism, has constructed an original and 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 there.  It then beckons us forth to true freedom and a more meaningful relationship with ourselves and God.

 

Besides the ritual questions, “How is this night different from all other nights?” the most common question asked over 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?”

 

This original commentary activates the four worlds of the individual: the world of action, the world of emotion, the world of intellect, and the world of spirit.  It weaves a beautiful tapestry illuminating not only the treasures available to us within Passover but also of the yearly festival cycle.  The result is a holistic healing spiral that takes us out of Mitzraim through the desert and onto the Land flowing with milk and honey.

 

It is hoped that this Haggadah will find a place in the hearts of all those, regardless of denomination, whose soul yearns for greater depths and higher vistas, and will provide spiritual sustenance not only on Passover but the entire year.
