CHAG MATZAH
The LIBERATION that we are destined to experience is from the oppression of EGYPT (MITZRAYIM). Mitzrayim represents the conscious state of EGOISM. In the conscious state of EGOISM, the corporate SOUL has created a world of contrast. In the world of contrast, we experience temporary states of pleasure and suffering.
The world of contrast is the creation of the EGO. It may be compared to the process in which a CLAM creates a pearl. Something foreign enters into the CLAM. The CLAM reacts to the discomfort by creating ENAMEL around the discomfort thus producing a PEARL. Likewise the EGO has created a KIND of ENAMEL out of THOUGHT LIFE producing a FALSE SENSE of REALITY from the FIVE SENSES that CONCEALS the TRUE NATURE of the SOUL. Because the NATURE of the FALSE SENSE of REALITY is ENAMEL LIKE, i.e. INANIMATE, it takes distasteful events to break its hold.
This MITZRAYIM that we are destined to experience LIBERATION from in the UNFOLDMENT of the GOAL of CREATION commences with this idea. Therefore we are commanded to consume what is distasteful, that we might be mindful of what occurs on the PATH of LIFE which is LIBERATION.
