Product Description
by Avraham Greenbaum (Translator), Rabbi Nachman Of Breslov (Author)
To some, Rabbi Nachman is best known for his stories, which rank among the classics of world literature. For others he is the outstanding mystic and Kabbalist. Yet others know him through his main teachings about prayer and joy. And to his followers, the Breslover chassidim, Rabbi Nachman is the continuing source of wisdom and inspiration for a movement which today is very much alive. The universal value of Rabbi Nachman's works is firmly established, and growing numbers are turning to his works for their challenging relevance to contemporary issues. But because they were written either in Hebrew or Yiddish, they have been somewhat inaccessible to the general reader. Even advanced rabbinic scholars frequently find themselves unable to keep abreast of Rabbi Nachman's vast array of references to all areas of Jewish religious literature. ADVICE was compiled by Rabbi Nathan in order to present Rabbi Nachman's teachings in a systematic way. The reader can thus gain an understanding of all the main themes and concepts of Rabbi Nachman's ideas, and attain a practical grasp of his way of simplicity and joy.
