From Kabbalah Experience:
When seen through a spiritual lens, the Seder provides you an opportunity to experience a process of personal liberation from whatever holds you back, from whatever of your past keeps you captive.

That is what we are attempting through this Haggadah: to pass over, pass through, innovate and move beyond. By transforming the meaning of these time-honored rituals, this experience becomes a vehicle for you to transform your life.

How do we do it: We shift attention from literal story to metaphor, from an ancient past others experienced to your present experience, and from external reality to the subtle workings of inner life.
