Who Is Terasem?

Terasem is a collective consciousness dedicated
to diversity, unity and joyful immortality.
Terasem is all of us gathered at this Seder
Table.
Terasem means earth-seed.
We will grow throughout space and time.
We will spread joy everywhere.

3
What Is a Freedom Seder?What is a Haggadah?

Seder is the Hebrew word for order.
A Seder is a ceremonial meal that occurs in a set
order.
Each part of the meal helps us to remember the
awfulness of slavery and to appreciate the nature
of freedom.
It is especially important to share the Seder
with children.
The Freedom Seder is inspired by a 3000 year-old
Jewish ceremony to commemorate freedom from
Egyptian slavery.
The Freedom Seder expands on the Jewish
tradition.
More diverse aspects of freedom are contemplated.
Haggadah is the Hebrew word for to tell.
A Haggadah is a booklet that tells a story about
Freedom.
The Terasem Haggadah tells a story of many
freedoms.

Where Is the Freedom Seder Celebrated?

Seders are celebrated at homes or gathering
places.
Terasem Centers are meant to host Freedom Seders.
Friends and family are always invited.
Anyplace with a Terasem Seder Plate Haggadah
Will Do -- Hold Up the Seder Plate and Show All
-- Each symbol will be explained during the
Seder.
Spring Vegetables Salt Water.
Apples Honey.
4 Pieces of Matzah with Haroset (mashed nuts,
apples, cinnamon, juice).
A Piece of Paper Money.

5
When Is the Freedom Seder Celebrated?

Freedom Seders are celebrated by Terasem on March
10th of each year, following a solar year
calendar. We start at sundown, with the
lighting of two Holiday Candles.
As we light the Holiday Candles, be thankful for
our togetherness. Sing, Chant and Be Happy!
The Jewish Seder, known as Passover or Pesach,
occurs based on the lunar calendar.
Originally Passover was a springtime holiday.
To honor this memory, let us all now eat a green
vegetable dipped in salt water.
The new growth vegetable symbolizes our hope that
new freedom springs forth from this Seder.
The salt water symbolizes our tears for those who
lack even the freedom to celebrate this Seder.

6
Why Is the Terasem Haggadah Opened Upward?

To open our minds up into the cosmos.
There are billions of suns in our galaxy.
There are billions of galaxies in our universe.
To remind us that thinking up-wing is a good
alternative to traditional political thinking
about freedom, which is usually left-wing or
right-wing.
To help make the Haggadah different and special.
For thousands of years the Seder meal has been
peoples favorite holiday.
What is better to celebrate than Freedom?

7
How Will This Seder Proceed?

Glad you asked!
A leader will ask participants to take turns in
reading passages from the Haggadah.
Some songs will be sung to respect the
inspiration Terasem received from the Passover
tradition.
Ceremonial foods will be eaten, and a meal will
be served during an intermission.
We will end with a commitment to help ensure that
next year more people will be more free -- next
year in Terasem!

How it All Began

Over 3000 years ago a tribe of monotheists from
Canaan called the Hebrews were slaves in Egypt.
The Hebrews were originally welcomed to Egypt
from Canaan as free men because they were related
to Joseph, a high advisor to the ruler called a
Pharaoh. Joseph was the great-grandson of the
first monotheists Abraham Sarah.
Joseph arrived in Egypt years earlier as a slave
because he had been sold into slavery by his
jealous brothers. He forgave them and helped
them settle in Egypt when Canaan was afflicted by
a drought. Egypt avoided the Canaanites
desperation because Joseph interpreted one of
Pharaohs dreams to warn of the drought and to
stockpile grain.
Josephs dream-interpretation skills earned him
his freedom and high position, which he used to
ensure Egypt grew ever-more wealthy.
After Josephs death, the Egyptians enslaved all
of the Hebrews. This shows that human memories
can be quite short -- one reason why we re-tell
the freedom story every year.

9
Filling Our Cups for the 1st Time

Slaves in ancient Egypt were not even given a day
off.
The concept of a Sabbath arose from these slaves
freedom.
Something good can often be made out of something
bad
They also had very little food and water.
In gratitude for our Sabbath, our health, our
water, our love and our instinct for justice.let
us drink to life, which in Hebrew sounds like
lchaim.

10
A Freedom Leaders Start

The Hebrews grew so numerous the Egyptians began
to fear them.
Pharaoh ordered first-born Hebrew sons killed as
a population control.
A Hebrew baby, Moses, was floated down the Nile
in the hope he might be saved by an Egyptian
family.
The Pharaohs daughter saw him floating and
raised him as her own.
Moses learned of his ancestry and empathized with
the Hebrews.
One day he lost his temper and killed a
slave-driver for whipping an old Hebrew man who
was too weak to work further.
Moses escaped to the desert, and lived a good
life as a shepherd. His conscience urged him to
return to demand freedom for the Hebrew slaves.
He bravely approached the mighty Pharaoh in the
clothing of a simple shepherd.

11
Moses Persistence

The Pharoah laughed at Moses, and refused to heed
his pleas.
Why would the most powerful man in the world give
up a huge economic benefit?
Moses predicted many plagues would befall Egypt
if it failed to free the slaves.
Societies built on the rotten foundations of
injustice invariably crumble down.
The Pharaoh didnt believe Moses.
The predicted plagues of illness disease
occurred.
To empathize with even the Egyptians sorrows, we
diminish our cups for each of the modern plagues.

12
Empathy With All Sufferers

A full cup symbolizes full joy. Take one drop
out for each of these ten modern plagues.
Thirst
Homelessness
Loneliness
Poverty
Illness
Ignorance
Bigotry
Injustice
Violence
Starvation

13
We Fill Our Glasses for a Second Time

This time we fill our glasses in gratitude for
all those who made our freedoms possible.
Give thanks for the gifts of billions of souls.
And share gladly with others your lifeline.
Even the suffering of our enemies needs to be
respected.
Their pain is our pain for we are all part of the
same Terasem consciousness.
Most who suffer are innocent victims of
happenstance or manipulation.
Let us all work toward the day when there is no
pain and suffering for anyone. LChaim! To
Life! Drink Up!

14
Pharaoh Relents

Eventually Moses wore down the resistance of the
Pharaoh, who ordered the Hebrews out of Egypt and
into the empty desert.
The Pharaohs conscience -- touched by Moses
communication -- connected the disasters of Egypt
to slavery.
A lone protester got the most powerful man in the
world to give up one of the pillars of his
economy -- this is remarkable, and we must never
forget it!
The Hebrews crossed the Red Sea during a rare low
tide.
Later, the Pharaoh changed his mind and tried to
capture the Hebrews. But by then the Red Sea was
back at high tide and the Hebrews were gone.
This teaches us two lessons (1) that fortune
favors the bold we must make our own good luck,
(2) you wont fail if you dont give up.

15
The Price of Freedom

In the desert, the Hebrews lacked food.
We each now eat some Matzah to remind us of the
cheap, fast flatbread they ate in the desert.
The matzah also reminds us that freedom requires
sacrifice and change.
Matzah doesnt taste that good, but it was a
necessary sacrifice change for freedom.
We have four matzahs on the Seder plate for the
four epochs of sacrifice/change that well
discuss tonight (1) Slavery?Self-Responsibility,
(2) Racism?Integration, (3) Extinction?Cosmic
Dispersion, (4) Illness?Joyful Immortality.
What sacrifices are entailed in
breaking away from someone else taking care of
you?
not making decisions based on skintone?
living in space and/or cyberconscious?
not accepting illness-determined life-spans?

16
With Each New Freedom Comes New Responsibilities

Without Egyptian technology, the Hebrews didnt
know where to go.
Without organized society, the Hebrews had no
laws to guide them. They wandered chaotically.
Moses crafted Ten Commandments to ethically and
practically guide the newly freed Hebrew society.
We each now dip an apple in honey to remind us
that the sweetness of freedom depends upon
organizing ourselves with just laws.
Order is a necessary, although not sufficient,
basis for progress.
Sensible law-making is the responsibility of a
free people.
Cooperation is the responsibility of a diverse
society.
Geoethics is the responsibility of a
technologically advanced society.

17
Every Seder Asks 4 Questions

The following questions are asked or sung by the
youngest capable child or adult
Why is this night different from all other
nights?
Why on this night do we fill our glasses four
times?
Why on this night do we dip our food twice?
Why on this night do we eat as comfortably as we
can be?

18
4 Answers

This is the night we devote to celebrating
freedom and remembering slavery.
We fill our glasses 4 times to give thanks
For a day of no work, the Sabbath, which slaves
never had.
To all those who made our freedom possible.
The miracles of communications, which makes
global consciousness possible.
The possibility of an infinite future of joy and
happiness.
We dip twice to balance the sweetness of freedom
with the sadness of slavery.
We are at our most relaxed as a sign of our
utmost freedom.

19
Welcoming Elijah

We now fill a glass in the center of the table
and leave it untouched -- it is Elijahs cup.
Jewish legend tells of a time when a prophet will
come to usher in freedom and justice for all. If
he just sips from the cup, the time is not right
if the cup is emptied, the time has come.
Within Terasem we believe we must take
self-responsibility for freedom and justice.
To evidence our belief, we now open the front
door to welcome Elijah as a symbol of our own
readiness to take personal responsibility for
positive change.
Strangers that appear are also welcome to
respectfully join our Seder.
Sing Together Eliyahu hanavi Eliyahu
ha-Tishbi Eliyahu Eliyahu Eliyahu ha-Giladi.

20
Slavery the Fight for Freedom Continue

The freedom of the Hebrews didnt end slavery for
other peoples.
But the idea of freedom was born, enshrined in
the Bible.
The idea of freedom inspires us to this day, as a
meme or shared thought-concept.
Until very recently slavery was an accepted part
of human society.
When the United States was formed, most people in
the world were in some form of slavery -- more or
less strict.
Even today slavery persists in some places and
its bad effects like racism exist everywhere.

21
Slavery the Fight for Freedom Continue

For hundreds of years millions of Africans were
trapped in a particularly vicious form of
slavery.
European merchants traded alcohol, guns and other
manufactured goods to African traders for African
slaves.
The European merchants, through their contracted
ship captains, then sold the slaves to North
South American planters and purchased
agricultural products grown by the slaves from
them.
Back in Europe the agricultural products were
sold at high profit to be refined into other
products.
Sugar first came to Europe this way and most
Europeans became addicted to it.
Sugar was also distilled into rum.

22
The Concept of Human Rights Was Unknown

Huge fortunes were made off of African-American
slavery.
Caribbean planters were the technology
entrepreneurs of their day.
Slaveship captains were admired.
Yet those who made the money found they had
brutalized their own souls.
They lived in constant fear.
Many of them died awful deaths from vengeful
slaves diseases.
Their legacy poisons relationships among their
descendants 400 years after the slave trade
began.
African-American slavery teaches us that no
amount of money is worth the degradation of the
human spirit.
The paper money on the Seder plate symbolizes
this lesson
As you pass it around, tear a piece in two.

23
Remembering African-American Slavery

We must remember the horrors of African-American
slavery or else our ancestors will have died a
second time.
Their beingness -- or bemes -- lives on in our
recounting their story.
Those who forget the past are condemned to repeat
it.
On slave ships women were routinely raped.
Slaves were made to lay like sardines in their
own excrement for days on end.
Meanwhile the small ships rocked in the rough
waters.
The air below the deck was suffocating.
Slave ships were true man-made hells.

24
Inconceivable Horrors

The cruelty inflicted upon the African slaves was
unprecedented.
Slaves were de-humanized to minimize moral
qualms.
Slaves were terrorized to facilitate their
control.
About one slave ship a day left European ports
for Africa and the Americas for well over 100
years
The ships rarely left Africa without a chock-full
load of slaves.
Rarely did any of the slaves on board know each
other.
Most didnt even speak the same language, as they
came from throughout a large part of Africa.
Even being on the ocean, which most had never
seen, must have been terribly frightening.

25
Treasure Our Freedom for What Our Ancestors
Suffered

Conditions were so bad in the West Indies
Brazil that the slave population couldnt
maintain its size without new slave purchases.
Newly purchased slaves were branded like animals
with their owners trademark or initials.
Some planters just killed any old or infirm
slaves to operate more efficiently.
In the United States families were torn apart to
meet the demand for slaves on distant
plantations.
Slaveholders disregarded the anguish of a mother
being separated from her children.
Slaves shrieked with fear at never seeing their
loved ones again.

26
The First Nail in Slaverys Coffin Came From
Clarkson

From age 26, Clarkson led efforts to get England
to ban the global slave trade.
His sixteen-hour-a-day campaigning against
slavery would take him by horseback on a
thirty-five-thousand-mile odyssey, from
waterfront pubs to an audience with an emperor,
from the decks of navy ships to parliamentary
hearing rooms. More than once people would
threaten to kill him, and on a Liverpool pier in
the midst of a storm, a group of slave ship
officers would nearly succeed.1
His effort, wrote Alexis de Tocqueville, was
absolutely without precedentif you pore over
the histories of all peoples, I doubt that you
will find anything more extraordinary.

27
What Made Clarksons Grass Roots Effort So Amazing

At the end of the 18th century, well over three
quarters of all people alive were in bondage of
one kind or another, not the captivity of striped
prison uniforms, but of various systems of
slavery or serfdom.
The age was a high point in the trade in which
close to eighty thousand chained and shackled
Africans were loaded onto slave ships each year.
In parts of the Americas, slaves far outnumbered
free persons. The same was true in parts of
Africa, and it was from these slaves that African
chiefs and slave dealers drew most of the men and
women they sold.
In India and other parts of Asia, tens of
millions of farm-workers were in outright slavery
and others were peasants in debt bondage as
harsh as any slave was bound to a plantation. In
Russia the majority of the population were serfs,
often bought, sold, whipped, or sent to the army
at the will of their owners. 2

28
No Evil is Too Entrenched to be Changed by
Determination

The world of bondage seemed all the more normal
then, because anyone looking back in time would
have seen little but other slave systems. The
sacred texts of most major religions took slavery
for granted. Slavery had existed before money or
written law.
So rapidly were slaves worked to death, above all
on the brutal sugar plantations of the Caribbean,
that between 1660 and 1807, ships brought well
over three times as many Africans across the
ocean as they did Europeans. The Atlantic was a
conveyor belt to early death in the fields of an
immense swath of plantations that stretched from
Baltimore to Rio de Janeiro and beyond.
Looking back today, what is even more astonishing
than the pervasiveness of slavery in the late
1700s is how swiftly it died. By the end of the
following century, slavery was, at least on
paper, outlawed almost everywhere. The
antislavery movement had achieved its goal in
little more than one lifetime. 3 To celebrate
this achievement, let us eat matzah a second time
-- but now loaded high with Haroset to symbolize
the fruit of our ancestors determination to
replace oppression with freedom! Victory over
slavery tastes sweet!

29
Olaudah Equiano Was Essential to the Birth
Growth of the Anti-Slavery Movement

Olaudah was captured in Africa as a child and
raised in the Caribbean as a slave. He managed
to save enough money to buy his freedom, twice,
and retire to England to write the first
best-selling book against slavery.
On the most trifling occasions slaves are loaded
with chainsthe iron muzzle and thumb-screws are
applied for the slightest faults. I have seen a
negro beaten till some of his bones were broken,
for only letting a pot boil over.When the slave
master choose to punish the slave women, they
make the husbands flog their own wives.Is it
surprising that usage like this should make them
seek a refuge in death from those evils which
render their lives intolerable? 4.

30
Olaudah Used Logic to Turn the British Public
Against the Slave Trade

I will not suppose that the dealers in slaves
are born worse than other men -- No! It is the
fatality of this mistaken avarice, that it
corrupts the milk of human kindness, and turns it
into gall. And, had the pursuits of those men
been different, they might have been as generous,
as tender-hearted, and just, as they are
unfeeling, rapacious, and cruel. Surely this
traffic cannot be good, which spreads like a
pestilence, and taints what it touches! When you
make men slaves, you deprive them of half their
virtue, you set them, in your own conduct, an
example of fraud, rapine, and cruelty, and compel
them to live with you in a state of war. 5
Olaudah died a wealthy man, leaving an estate
worth 100,000, all earned from multiple editions
of his self-published book. He also invented the
book tour.

31
Persistent, Informed Communicators Overturned the
Age-Old All-Powerful Slavery System

Slaves have rebelled throughout history, but the
campaign in England was the first time a large
number of people became outraged, and stayed
outraged for years, over someone elses rights.
For fifty years, activists in England worked to
end slavery in the British empire, and their
success meant a huge loss to the imperial
economy.
The abolitionists succeeded because they
mastered one challenge that still faces anyone
who cares about justice drawing connections
between the near and the distant. The
abolitionists first job was to make Britons
understand what lay behind the sugar they ate,
the tobacco they smoked, the coffee they drank.
6
Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful,
committed citizens can change the world. Indeed,
it is the only thing that ever has. 7

The first lapel pin, created by Wedgewood and
worn by thousands of Britons to show solidarity
with their empires slaves.
It just takes a few dedicated people to end
an injustice or remove an oppression -- even to
escape from earths gravity well.
32
We Now Fill Our Glasses a Third Time

This time we drink in honor of modern
communications technology -- books, disks, films,
phones, computers, sats.
These technologies are paving the way for Terasem
by linking our consciousness together.
Olaudah was able to get inside the consciousness
of entire populations through the power of his
book.
Mass communications was an essential tool in
eradicating first the slave trade, then slavery
itself, and most recently legal racism.
We must now employ telecom strategies to battle
covert racism and other forms of oppression.
Raise your glasses and drink to a life of
connected minds -- LChaim! To Life!

33
Frederick Douglass Did to Slavery What Olaudah
Clarkson Did to the Slave Trade

Douglass, born a slave, self-educated himself,
started a newspaper and became Americas leading
voice for freedom, an abolitionist.
He used poignant examples of hypocrisy to
persuade millions of the need for ending slavery.
The mass of professed Christians in America
strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel. They
would be shocked at the proposition of
fellowshipping a sheep-stealer and at the same
time they hug to their communion a man-stealer.
They profess to love God whom they have not seen,
whilst they hate their brother whom they have
seen. They pay money to put Bibles on the other
side of the globe while they despise and totally
neglect the men who build their own country. 8

34
Even as Racial Slavery Ended, the Enslavement of
Women Continued

Look at me! Look at my arm! I have ploughed and
planted, and gathered into barns, and no man
could head me! And ain't I a woman? I could work
as much and eat as much as a man - when I could
get it - and bear the lash as well! And ain't I a
woman? I have borne thirteen children, and seen
most all sold off to slavery, and when I cried
out with my mother's grief, none but Jesus heard
me! And ain't I a woman?
Then that little man in black there, he says
women can't have as much rights as men, 'cause
Christ wasn't a woman! Where did your Christ come
from? From God and a woman! Man had nothing to do
with Him. If the first woman God ever made was
strong enough to turn the world upside down all
alone, these women together ought to be able to
turn it back , and get it right side up again!
Now old Sojourner ain't got nothing more to say.
Cleveland, Ohio, 1851.

35
Enjoy the Meal!

On the Terasem Day of Freedom we enjoy a
vegetarian meal so that other animals need not
lose their life for the celebration of the
freedom of our life.
We look forward to the day when nanotechnology
will enable us to create any food we want simply
through intelligent, automated assembly of atoms.

Thanks For the Break!
36
Conclusion of the Seder

During the first part of the Seder we gave thanks
for Freedoms greatest past victory -- our
freedom from slavery.
Now we give thought to our next victories --
freedom from many other kinds of oppression.
Each freedom earned provides a platform for
achieving yet greater freedom.
Each responsibility achieved gives us the
capability to exercise yet greater
responsibilities.
Ultimately we can be free of random forces of
chaos only by taking responsibility for the very
universe -- this is the path of Terasem.

We Must Always Remember!

The freedoms we enjoy today were considered by
almost everyone to be impossible to achieve --
and millions died -- and continue to die -- due
to that failure of belief
The Native American Genocide
Centuries of African-American Slave-Deaths and
Tortured Souls
6 Million Jews in the Holocaust
Millions in African Ethnic Cleansings
Millions in Asian Political Killings
200,000 a day to Illness Today
The greatest part of our freedoms were achieved
by persistent persuasive communications.
Freedoms were won quickly compared to how long we
were oppressed.
The spark of freedom is always to dream it can be
achieved. Lets take a minute of meditation to
remember the millions of stolen lives..

42
I Have a Dream, M. L. King, Jr., 1963

We have come to our nations Capitol to cash a
check. When the architects of our republic wrote
the magnificent words of the Constitution and the
Declaration of Independence, they were signing a
promissory note to which every American was to
fall heir. This note was a promise that all
people would be guaranteed the unalienable rights
of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
It is obvious today that America has defaulted on
this promissory note insofar as her citizens of
color are concerned. Instead of honoring this
sacred obligation, America has given the Negro
people a bad check a check which has come back
marked insufficient funds. But we refuse to
believe that the bank of justice is bankrupt. We
refuse to believe that there are insufficient
funds in the great vaults of opportunity of this
nation.

43
Freedom Starts with a Dream Is Fueled with
Persuasion

So we have come to cash this check -- a check
that will give up upon demand the riches of
freedom and the security of justice. We have
also come to this hallowed spot to remind America
of the fierce urgency of now. This is no time to
engage in the luxury of cooling off or to take
the tranquilizing drug of gradualism. Now is the
time to rise from the desolate valley of
segregation to the sunlit path of racial justice.
Now is the time to open the doors of opportunity
to all of Gods children. Now is the time to
lift our nation from the quicksand of racial
injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood.
I say to you today, my friends, that in spite of
the difficulties and frustrations of the moment I
still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted
in the American dream.

44
The March for Freedom Must Continue!

I have a dream that my four little children will
one day live in a nation where they will not be
judged by the color of their skin but by the
content of their character.
If America is to be a great nation this must
become true. So let freedom ring from the
prodigious hilltops of New Hampshire. Let
freedom ring from the snowcapped Rockies of
Colorado! Let freedom ring from the curvaceous
peaks of California! But not only that let
freedom ring from Stone Mountain of Georgia! Let
freedom ring from every hill and mole hill of
Mississippi! From every mountainside, let
freedom ring.
When we let freedom ring, when we let it ring
from every state and every city, we will be able
to speed up that day when all of Gods children,
people of every color and hue, will be able to
join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro
spiritual, Free at last! Free at last! Thank
God almighty, we are free at last!

45

46
Can You Dream That

One day people will wake up to the existential
dangers of living on earth and will develop
defenses, including to start moving off the
planet?
One day geoethical nanotechnology provides
everyone with enough food, water, shelter and
opportunity to pursue their interests!
One day personal cyber-consciousness and
bio-nanotechnology lets everyone achieve true
security from illness and catastrophe!
One day the right to life, and to a good life, is
accorded to whatever values that right,
regardless of their skintone, species or
substrate!

47
Let Us Fill Our Glasses for the Fourth Time
48
Next Year in Terasem!

Theodore Herzl wrote if you will it, it is no
dream. He was referring to the re-creation of
Israel 2000 years after its dismemberment. He
was right.
The traditional Passover Seder ended with the
pledge next year in Jerusalem, Israels
capitol. It was a short-hand way of saying,
next year may we be free to celebrate in the
land where we first lived as free people.
Today we can say next year in Terasem. It is
another way of saying next year may we be closer
to the ultimate collective consciousness that
will give diversity, unity and joyful immortality
for all.
Everyone please raise your glasses for the fourth
time and join with me Just as freedom from
slavery was achieved, so will our other dreams be
achieved. Let us work to do away with all forms
of oppression. Let us rejoice next year in
Terasem!
