Passover 10 (421987) Hagadah - Maror

When we eat the 'Maror', when we experience near death, and that's why numerically it adds up to 'mavet' (death), is because we're, in essence, reenacting what they did with the zeroa but rather than it's easy to burn the lamb; what about burning oneself? Burning out the desire to receive for oneself alone. There is one aspect, one concept, one need, for all humankind, that there is no price for. In other words, everyone would be prepared to relinquish himself or herself of all the physical, corporeal reality that exists in this world. For what reason? For one reason. What is that? Life. Not to die. There is no price that we can place that someone would say: "You know what? Too expensive." So the reason why this 'Maror', which reenacts for us this kind of feeling, that we have achieved near death and let it come. This is restriction in its most optimum degree. Cancelling out the desire to receive for oneself alone, which is manifested where in its most intensity? The body.
