Purim - 14 AdarSushan Purim - 15 AdarThe festival of Purim falls on the 14th of Adar, all over the world except, in Jerusalem where it starts on the 15th. Purim is said to be one of two holidays (the other being Chanukah) that will be retained well into the Sabbatical Millennium. Purim, because it celebrates the physical survival of the Jewish people is also connected with the theme of Amalek and Shabbat Zachor in which we fulfill the Mitzvah of remembering what Amalek tried to do to Israel when exoding Egypt. Not surprisingly, wicked Haman ("the Agagi"), who hatched the plan to annihilate the Jews in ancient Persia, issued from Amalek. You will find an essay on Amalek linked to the Project Mind home page: http://www.projectmind.org There, you will see how and why Amalek represents the materialist and pagan "work-to-eat" paradigm that keeps us from realizing our destiny and why our firm, materialist faith in limitation can and must be eradicated. In honor of that Purim affirmation and our faith in limitlessness, I remind us all of the 3 pillars of Project Mind:
