Outpouring of the Soul

Outpouring of the Soul

by Rabbi Nachman  (translated by Rabbi Aryeh Kaplan)

Breslov Research Institute, Lakewood, New Jersey      © 1980    75 pp.

A rebbe advises that we take the hammer of words to our heavy stone hearts and break them into small enough pieces to lift to heaven. Perhaps the heavy stone is our protective shield which we have built up in a vain attempt to shield the “self” against the hostile world.

When the words of our teachers help us abandon the entire enterprise of shielding, then the light of the true heart can shine forth, and it is the same heart for each of us.
