Rebbi Nachman says that the secret of Yachatz is brokenness. The only way to achieve wholeness is through cycles of brokenness. The baalie Musar say that there is nothing as whole as a broken heart. In our lives we will go through periods of falling, brokenness, in order to grow. It is only after Yachatz that we can move on to Motzie Matzah. Even after Motzie Matzah, there will be marror again. This is why we have Matzah and Marror together, to learn that this is the path of growth, brokenness and wholeness together. Falling and getting up again is the process of life, and we can not have despair. We have to hold on and continue through these cycles to go higher and higher. The fifteen steps of the seder are about using the seder of life to go higher and higher using our relationship with Hashem to grow.
