Passover
In the group, one reveals hatred. From here the work starts. One does not look at the externality of a friend, but rather at his point in the heart. Repulsion towards a friend may happen. Actions may be manifested in showing disrespect to another. Yet, plugging along is necessary, that is working with the group. Those seeking the upper world is climbing Mout Sinai, the mountain of hatred. Hatred is never erased because this is a ladder through which one can rise higher. By inverting hatred to love, one climbs up little by little. Love is like poking a hole into a hard rock into which one can insert one's hand to raise his body a little higher to reach the top of the mountain. The effort to just push oneself is the prayer that demands the Creator to give him the energy to continue the journey. This is everyone's Passover - when one cries to the Creator and the Creator hears the cries of His people, then He sends Moses to redeem His people from slavery, then it continues to crossing the Red Sea, and then the 40 years of wandering before reaching the Promised Land. Efforts are necessary in order for the upper one to fulfill its promise.
