The Talmud relates the following story: “The son of a rabbi mourned the loss of his beloved father. Day after day he went to the cemetery and prostrated himself on the grave of his father. One day as the son gave way to paroxysms (fits/outbursts) of sorrow, his father appeared to him in a vision and said: ‘My son, do you think that you honor my memory with your grief? Offer me no tribute of tears. Build for me no monuments of sorrow. Do not weep for me. Live for me! Show your love by your obedience to God’s commandments, by devotion to your faith, and by service to your fellowman. This is the memorial that truly honors the departed.’ After hearing these words, the son lifted himself from his father’s grave, and went forth to make of his father’s memory a perpetual light to guide him in paths of righteousness and truth.” Though we indeed sorrow in the loss of our loved ones, we do honor to them when we can direct our feelings of sorrow into making their memory a blessing by remembering how they lived, the values they held dear, and then acting positively in our world to make a difference for others. Transforming the memory of our loved ones into blessings for the living, blesses them and us as well. Rabbi Robert Silvers

the Meaning of Kaddish The Kaddish Prayer so warmly, so inexorably, woven into the tapestry of mourning is essentially not a prayer for our departed. It is a prayer in praise of God. Not one word of the Aramaic, in which it is written, has even the slightest connection with cessation of life. Having its origins in the days of the great assemblies of Rabbis, the creators of the Mishna and Talmud, the prayer was originally recited at the conclusion of the study of a portion of sacred writing. Gradually, the practice developed of reciting the Kaddish at the conclusion of a great scholar’s life as he completed “his own book of life with its sacred teachings.” Soon, however, the alchemy of equality worked its leaven into this practice so that by the Tenth Century it became the custom to recite the Kaddish at the termination of all persons’ lives. No experience in Jewish life today equals the emotional magnetism of the duty to recite Kaddish for a lost member of the family. the sentimental associations strike deep and meaningful roots and reflect Judaism’s sage counsel regarding death and immortality. As we praise God in life, for life, so do we praise God in life for death, the necessary complement of life. It is not merely that man has a soul, man is a soul. Immortality is not a place, it is an imperishable state of being. The real is spiritual and the spiritual is real. At the very moment when what is most difficult is to thank God, Judaism says extol His name, sing of His wonderful ways, thank Him for the privilege of sharing a life. At a time when one’s faith in God is most challenged, the Kaddish says to us: reaffirm your faith in Him, in your world, and in your ability to see beyond the day’s pain. Tomorrow is never without hope. For life itself is Kadosh-holy. Mind is eternal; personality, character have no end. “Magnified and sanctified be His name…” “May the source of peace send peace to all who mourn and comfort all the bereaved among us.”

For A YAhrzeit The family is gathered at dusk, on the eve of the anniversary of the death
At this moment, which bears the memory of our beloved .........................., let us join hands in love and remembrance. A link has been broken in the chain which has bound us together, yet strong bonds of home and love hold us each to the other. We give thanks for the blessing of life, of companionship, and of memory. We are grateful for the strength and faith that sustained us in the hour of our bereavement. Though sorrow lingers, we have learned that love is stronger than death. Though our loved one is beyond our sight, we do not despair, for we sense our beloved in our hearts as a living presence. The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me to lie down in green pastures: He leads me beside the still waters. He restores my soul He guides me in the right paths for the sake of His name. Even when I walk in the valley of the shadow of death, I shall fear no evil, for You art with me; With rod and staff You comfort me. You have set a table before me in the presence of my enemies: You have anointest my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever. – Psalm XXIII. Sustained by words of faith, comforted by precious memories, we kindle the Yahrzeit light in remembrance. “The human spirit is the light of the Lord.” As this light burns pure and clear, so may the blessed memory of the goodness and nobility of the character of our dear ..................................... illumine our souls. The light is kindled Zich-ro-no (Zich-ro-no) li-ve-ra-cha His (her) memory is a blessing 42
