Chabad Asia Conference in Delhi, India

Monday, April 26th, 2010

We welcome Rabbi Binyomin Edery back from his trip to Delhi, India for the Asia Chabad Emissary Conference. Among the participants was the Head Rabbi and Head Emissary of India, Rabbi Bezalel Kupchik. The main emphasis and topic of the conference was how to add in deeds of goodness and kindness in each Rabbi’s city, making each city ready to greet Moshiach. A special thank you to Chabad House of Delhi, the emissary of Delhi, Rabbi Shmuel Sharf, hosted all of the Rabbis with warmth and great happiness. The Rabbis, who came from all over India, Sri Lanka, Philipines, came away with good resolutions, which will surely impact many people for the good.
During Rabbi Edery’s stay he visited prisoners in the Delhi jail, asking about their welfare and helping in every way. There are 14,000 inmates, 70 inmates to a room. He also visited an orphanage in Delhi. May we merit the time when all negativity will be erased from this earth, with the coming of Moshiach now. As the prophet Isiah says: ” G-d will swallow death forever, and wipe away tears from all faces”.

Thursday, April 8th, 2010

It was wonderful to see so many people at the Seders. Down to the very last minute, people were emailing and calling. The Seder hall was packed, more and more people kept on coming in and joining. There were around 200 people at the end there was hardly room to sit. There was plenty of great food, Handmade Shemura matza to eat and take home. Thanks to the helpers and volunteers, the Seder was well organized ,thank G-d. There was a very warm, and family atmosphere. A special unity was felt among all the people participating. A huge thank you to Rabbi Edery for all his tireless efforts and constant devotion to make this Holiday a fantastic success, with the help of G-d. Definitely, next year we will celebrate next Pesach Seder in the 3rd Temple in Jerusalem.
Special thank you, to Rabbi Meir Abitan for all his help in making the Pesach Seders here in Japan, and all year round.

This coming Tuesday, April 6, at 4:00 pm, at Chabad Tokyo.

What is the meal of moshiach?

Passover has two parts. The “first days” with its seders and its reliving of history, and the “final days” with its messianic themes — days that herald the divine goodness and perfection which, the prophets promise us, is the end-goal of creation and the fulfillment of our present-day lives.
There is a Chassidic custom, instituted by the Baal Shem Tov and further developed by the Rebbes of Chabad, to conduct a “mirror-seder” in the closing hours of the last day of Passover, complete with matzah and four cups of wine. These are hours, say the Chassidic masters, when time relinquishes its last hold upon our lives; when the future, too, can be remembered, and the Era of Moshiach tasted and digested!
The Lubavitcher Rebbe encourages men, women and children to partake.
Partaking in the Feast of Moshiach hastens the coming of Moshiach, may it be NOW!
