We all need help maintaining our personal spiritual practice. We hope that these Daily Meditations , prayers and mindful awareness exercises can be part of bringing spirituality alive in your life.

Today's meditation features a video in honor of Passover by Jewish a cappella group The Maccabeats . The song is a parody mashup of three Justin Bieber songs and shares the importance of this holiday. Chag Sameach!

gave\nForget your hardened heart, my friend, for goodness sake, \nCuz you dont want to bring on all of these plagues\n\nA few hundred years is quite enough\nAnd through it all we didnt give up our faith and tradition \nYou cant stop our mission\nWere ready to be movin on\nTo the land of milk and honey, were not gonna look back,\nPharaoh, you should know that\n\nOur G-ds gonna smite you with blood and lice and frogs\nUntil you free us, cause slavery is wrong\nYouve taken quite a heavy blow and there are seven plagues to go\nWe must embark\nBefore you end up in the dark \n\nSo if you like the way your kingdom looks\nPharaoh, you should let my people go\nAnd if youre thinking of still holding on\nWell, Pharaoh, you should let my people go\n\nWe gotta go, pack up quickly, did you hear the new decree\nIt said were no longer welcome in Egypt, were walking free\nAll of those years laying bricks led us here to this destiny\nPart of the plan for the land we were promised\n\nSing out like were crossing the red sea\nCuz we travel back relive our history\nWhen you believe, youre part of the story\nYeah we crossed the water but on dry ground\nSo lets go celebrate Pesach now!\n\nStory\nOur Story\nStory\n\nYeah we crossed the water but on dry ground\nSo lets go celebrate Pesach now!\n\nWhy do we lean\nEating matzah and herbs, drinking four cups of wine\nThats why we lean\nAsk four questions and dip, no way well finish by nine\n\nWhen you believe, youre part of the
