and now he was getting richer every day. Soon he had everything he
had ever dreamed of: family, money, and a beautiful home.

Seder Preparations" -- The Warsaw Ghetto

MY DEAR ONES,
I am calling to you and speaking to your souls. The holy days of
Pesach are approaching. The holiness of these days pervades us thoroughly,
inside and out. Their light fills us and encompasses us.
Ascentof Safed is designed to be a place for relaxation, reflection,
interaction, and spiritual exploration, where you can grow and learn
in your own way, at your own pace, in an open atmosphere. You can
experience a wide range of learning, volunteer, creative, recreation
and other opportunities at Ascent as well as in the Old City of Tzfat.
We can help you create a personalized study plan, you can join one
of our weekend or weekday retreats, or you can come to relax and attend
study and meditation sessions at your leisure, while staying in our
great hostel with its spectacular views.
Towards the beginning of the Hagadah, soon
after we voice an invitation for guests to join us in the meal,
we are told, "All those that increase (hamarbeh) in
their telling about the exodus from Mitzrayim are praiseworthy!"
Generally, this is understood to mean that one should add to his
or her telling of the miracles G-d did for us more than 3,000 years
ago.
If you enjoyed Saturday
Night Full Moon", you're sure to want its sequel. Another
collection of intriguing Stories of Kabbalah Sages, Chasidic Masters
and other Jewish Heroes by Ascent's storymaster, Yerachmiel Tilles.
OUT OF PRINT; now in its 3rd 4th printing!
Deep mystical insights from the teachings of Rabbi Yitzchak Luria
on the Weekly Torah, translated into English by Moshe-Yakov Wisnefsky.
A summary of lessons conducted at the Ascent Institute in Safed

including stories and examples.
