Rioting - inflation - Food Shortages in America

 HH

This seems appropriate to what is going on in America now.

Dream from Saba, transcribed and translated:

This night I had a dream, such a dream….. 

There was a fire, fires, everyone was burned, all the non-Jews were burned along with all their money. Only in places where there were Jews, there were no fires, the fires were only among the non-Jews, not among us. Throughout America, among the non-Jews, there were fires, they remained without bread, in America and in Russia.

 

The President of America, Bush, he was a hater of Israel, he lost all his money and was left impoverished, he had nothing, not even enough to buy bread. Everyone was burned in fires and only he and one son remained, and the son cried: 

“Father, have mercy on me, give me bread!”

Bush said to him, “My son, I have no money. One who has no money, has no bread!” 

“Father, I want bread, I’m hungry, I need bread.” 

Bush said, “I have no money, I also have no bread, I have nothing, I don’t know what to do. I have no money, if there is no money – there is no bread.” 

Bush was very rich, he had businesses, everything was burned and not enough remained even to buy bread. There were fires, and all the money was turned to ashes, but among the Jews there were no fires, only among the non-Jews. Well, what do you say about a dream like that? 

Na Nach Nachma Nachman MayUman

The power of saying Na Nach Nachma Nachman MayUman

 HH unfortunately I can't find the post about this, in short some guy at the holy tzion many years ago told me that he or his wife were feeling very dejected after being ridiculed for being Nanach, and they dozed off and Rabbainu's mother came in their dream and told them what have you to be dejected about, every time you say Na Nach Nachma Nachman MayUman 200 people have a thought of repentance. So right away I told him that there is evidence to the truth of the dream, because the Hebrew word for 200 - מאתים = Na Nach Nachma Nachman MayUman. Shortly thereafter friends got involved in doing hafatza to Pakistan and Afghanistan, and they said there were potentially tens and tens of millions of lost Jews there, so we understood we would need to be singing a lot of Na Nach Nachna Nachman MayUman.

Rabbainu's dream to be in Israel

HH this is a post from a while back which I wrote in Hebrew and now Nissim did us a huge kindness to translate it into English, may HY bless him for all his work translating Rabbainu.

CM = Chayay Moharan - The Life of our Master Rabbi Nachman

[CM #93, see there.]

And behold, further on in CM #197 Rabbi Nathan brings a long conversation of Rabbeinu from where this dream [CM #93] is drawn. Because earlier Rabbeinu said how he wishes to cast off worldly [leadership] and not be involved in drawing people [to H' and the True Tzadik], and goes on to reveal the main service [of H'] is in one's free choice, knowing what to choose, and regarding this he was troubled how to choose, whether to be involved mainly in helping the live or the dead. And from there Rabbeinu went on to reveal his opting to be in Uman and to be buried there, and then he told this dream.

Clearly there is is great support to say this dream is highly connected to his place of burial and the aforementioned matters. And maybe we can say the synagogue is the aspect of Eretz Yisrael, and there in EY Rabbeinu is revealed by his new name, Na Nach Nachma Nachman MeUman, and this is an existential name that refers to exactly what it names, not just a regular "proper name." And after his burial his "Dear Student" too was essentially at the wedding in Uman, but people started asserting that the two of them are one, "This is one young man, this is the selfsame groom!" And he [z"l] felt it better to view the wedding from there in EY, however in the end he decided not, and behold Rabbeinu still remains lying in Uman. And that's not all, for there are more matters in the dream, for the essence of Rabbeinu's dream, and of all our [dream], is to bring the Tziun to EY, Soon in our days Amen. We need to still look into this a great deal, and I have only written to open this idea.

Na NaCh NaChMa NaChMaN MayUMaN

Every bit helps and you never know how or who it will help

HH

The other day I was taking a nap and I was having a not so pleasant dream when I was awoken to someone proclaiming: Shema Yisroel Hashem Eloakainoo Hashem Echad! and other verses of faith. It was such a relief, not only to be saved from the dream but in such a way that I was ushered straight into the atmosphere of the holy faith. The person had no idea of the favor he did for me, and I don't know who it was. These are the amazing bonuses of doing goodness, because the goodness goes out there and brings more and more goodness.

Na Nach Nachma Nachman MayUman!

Slaves of Time

HH

Movies drag a person down into the confines of time. This is something that becomes apparent especially when reading the awesome exposition of Rabbi Nussun in Likutay Halachos (Yoreh Daya 2), Laws of Circumcision (4), where he elaborates on the principles Rabbainu revealed about time, mainly that in reality there is no time, just according to the deficiency of daas, as can be seen with dreams when one isn't cognizant a few minutes can seem like eternity with elaborate plots of tens of years transpiring, so time imposes itself proportionately, so that the more daas one has the less he is restrained by time, and his time includes in it vast inordinate amounts of time of those with lesser daas, and a true tzadik has daas which transcends time altogether. This Rabbainu revealed in his Stories of Ancient Times, the story of the Seven Beggars, the Blind Beggar of the first day, is connected to the sense of sight. Thus the Blind Beggar who merited to transcend time was completely blind of the physicality of this world, which didn't amount in his eyes to even an eyeblink. According to the kabala, sight is a feminine sense, and the person who is seeing is on the receiving end. Rabbi Nussun explains a theme found already in Kabala and chasidus that time is a feminine aspect, time specific, the 28 different time enumerated in Koheles, all of these designations are the female aspects which is the vessel for those specific times, each one in its own right. These times constrain a person in their confines, for in reality there is no time, there is just this aspect that the female is the vessel for those times, to be filled and raised to eternity. Thus Rabbi Nussun asserts it is the duty of the male to raise the female to transcend time. This of course is accomplished through keeping the Torah and Mitzvoas which are the vehicles of transposing this world to the infinite. The letters of the Torah and each mitzva are also the aspect of female vessels, and they bring those that induce them to transcend time and the finite properties of this world. Thus when one put his eyes to see the physical world as it is without looking for the Torah inside, especially television, sports, and movies which are intent on captivating a person to concentrate on the physicality of the screenplay, the observer is dragged and incarcerated more in more into the trappings of time and becomes more and more subservient to the confines of time, like inducing a dream, he puts his consciousness deeper and deeper into deficiency of daas and will suffer the increasing dominance of time.

Blossoms of the Spring - Letter 7

Letter 7

BH 27 Nissan 718 (Thursday 17 April, 1958)

To a delightful man, Mr. Z. Shazar, greatings ("abundant peace").

On chol hamoed (-intermediate days of) Passover I wrote to his honor a receipt for his letter with the check of one hundred liras, and behold it is not possible to describe the great exquisite delight that he caused me to have from this wondrous matter, because I came to extra recognition in the matter of his pleasant, noble soul. I applied my heart, and I learned from this many good lessons of allusions, arousal, and encouragement, which are extremely urgent for the exalted and fundamental matter of drawing close to the light of the daas (realization of knowledge), the new and old, of the true tzadik who is the Rebbe and leader of us and of all the Children of Israel for eternal generations.

And now I am honored with this, to delight his good and expansive soul with good delicacies which I am about to publish ("bring to light") with the help of Hashem Yisburach.

Our teacher, the rav, Rabbi Nussun za.tza.l. once said to his disciples, "I will tell over to you my dream. I saw Ad.m.ur. (Our Master, Leader, and Rebbe), who came to me with one other person, and I told over to him ("before him") complainingly everything that transpired over me, and Ad.m.ur. said to me in these words, 'Dee <you> hust <did> ubber <however> mit <with> diyneh <your> sfurim <books> git gemacht <(you) did good>.' And this one who was with him nodded his head and agreed to this, and he said with these words, 'Yu yu <yes yes>, zayer <very> git <good> gemacht <(you) did>.' And I asked Ad.m.ur., 'Who is this?' And he replied, 'This is Moshe Rabbainu (-Moses) r.i.p.."

Also it is known that Rabbainu Hakadosh (-Our holy Rebbe) rested his hands upon him (-ordained him), and said of him that he (Rabbi Nussun) knows of him (Rabbainu) more than everyone.

In the beginning of Rabbi Nussun's o.b.m. drawing close to him, he (Rabbi Nachman) said then, "There came to me an avraich (-young married man, usually insinuating one engaged in Torah study), and through him there will not be lost even my small talk." And so it was, because just he engaged in publicizing his holy Torah (-teachings) to draw close through this many people to Hashem Yisburach, and through this the Samech Mem (-Satan) stood up against him, and made a controversy upon him through the Rav of Savrun who became his attacker and great hater to (-threaten/harass/endanger) his very life, but in the very end (Proverbs 12:19), "Language of truth is set firm forever," and the storm wind ceases and is lost, and is only great in its hour.

The main protraction of the exile, and the main obstruction of the redemption is just through strife (See Likutay Aitzos, Peace #4), because in every generation there exist people that tunnel (-strive, even in the most underhand way) to distance the heart of the Children of Israel from the true tzadik, and through this were brought about succeedingly all the destructions (-of the Temples), and the entire protraction of the present exile. However, even still (Psalms 92:9), "You are exalted forever Hashem," because also, likewise, there exist in every single generation true tzadikim and kosher (-proper) people who join up to the great chosen (/choice, prized) tzadik and go out joyously to great him, and listen to his counsel, and through this the redemption will come. He who desires to save his soul from the fire of strife, that is, not to take part in strife Heaven forbid, his main salvation is through truth.

In every single generation it is necessary to prowl, and to seek, and to search very very much, with all our strength, with all types of searching, with self sacrifice, for the true tzadik, until we merit to find him, and to draw close to him, and then we will merit to complete faith ("emoonu shlaimu"), through which the redemption will be brought (See Likutay Moharan, Torah 7). Fortunate is he who merits this, fortunate is he who awaits this, fortunate is he who spends all his days yearning, craving, and longing for this.

To be continued soon. Wishes of well-being to him and his household and those associated with him, and with feelings of absolute true love which is not contingent on any temporal matter.

ספר אב"י הנחל - הוצאת נקודות טובות - מכתב ז:

ב"ה כ"ז ניסן תשי"ח, טבריא.

לאיש חמודות, מר ז.שזר, שלום רב.

בחול המועד פסח כתבתי לכבודו קבלה על מכתבו עם הסך מאה לירות, והנה אין ביכולת לצייר את התענוג הגדול שגרם לי מדבר פלא הזה, כי באתי להכרה יתרה בענין נעימת נפשו האצילה. נתתי ליבי ולמדתי מזה כמה לימודים טובים של רמזים התעוררות והתחזקות הנחוצים מאד לענין הנשגב והעיקרי של ההתקרבות לאור הדעת החדש וישן של הצדיק האמת שהוא הרבי והמנהיג שלנו ושל כל בני ישראל לדורות עולם.

ועתה הריני נתכבד בזה לשעשע את נפשו הטובה והרחבה במטעמים טובים שאני עומד להוציא לאור בישועת ה' יתברך:

מורנו הרב רבי נתן זצ"ל אמר פעם לתלמידיו, אני אספר לכם את חלומי, ראיתי את אדמו"ר שבא אלי עם עוד אחד, וסיפרתי לפניו בדרך קובלנא כל אשר עבר עלי, ואמר לי אדמו"ר בזה הלשון, די האסט אבער מיט דיינע ספרים גיט געמאכט (אבל עם הספרים שלך עשית טוב). וזה האחד שהיה עימו נענע לו ראשו והסכים על זה, ואמר בזה הלשון: "יא יא, זייער גיט געמאכט" (כן, כן, טוב מאד עשית). ושאלתי את אדמו"ר מי הוא זה. והשיב לי, זה הוא משה רבנו עליו השלום.

גם ידוע שרבנו הקדוש סמך ידו עליו ואמר עליו שהוא יודע ממנו יותר מכולם.

בתחילת התקרבות מוהרנ"ת ז"ל אליו אמר אז, בא אלי אברך אחד ועל ידו לא יאבד אפילו שיחת חולין שלי. וכן היה, כי רק הוא עסק לפרסם תורת רבנו הקדוש בעולם ושיחותיו הקדושים, להודיע לבני אדם גדולת תורתו הקדושה לקרב על ידי זה אנשים רבים לה' יתברך, ועל ידי זה עמד עליו הס"מ ועשה עליו מחלוקת על ידי הרב מסוראן שנעשה לו רודף ושונא גדול עד לחייו, אבל סוף כל סוף "שפת אמת תכון לעד" והרוח סערה כלה ונאבד ואינו גדול אלא בשעתו.

עיקר אריכת הגלות, ועיקר עיכוב הגאולה הוא רק על ידי מחלוקת, כי בכל דור נמצאים בני אדם שהם חותרים להרחיק לב בני ישראל מהצדיק האמת, ועל ידי זה נתגלגלו כל החורבנות וכל הגלויות וכל האריכת הגלות של עכשיו. אך אף על פי כן "אתה מרום לעולם ה'", כי גם כמו כן נמצאים בכל דור ודור צדיקים וכשרים אמיתיים שהם נילווים אל הצדיק הגדול המובחר ושמחים לקראתו, ושומעים לעצתו ועל ידי זה תבוא הגאולה. מי שרוצה למלט נפשו מאש המחלוקת, היינו שלא יחזיק במחלוקת חס ושלום, עיקר הצלתו על ידי אמת.

בכל דור ודור צריכים לשוטט ולבקש ולחפש מאד מאד בכל כוחנו בכל מיני חיפוש במסירות נפש את הצדיק האמת עד שנזכה למצאו ולהתקרב אליו ואז נזכה לאמונה שלמה שעל ידי זה תבוא הגאולה. אשרי הזוכה לזה, אשרי המחכה לזה, אשרי המבלה כל ימיו להתגעגע ולהשתוקק ולכסוף לזה.

המשך יבוא בקרוב. בדרישת שלום לו ולביתו והנלוים אליו, וברגשי אהבת אמת לאמיתו שאינו תלוי בשום דבר בטל.

Don't forget NaNach even in your utter confusion

HH
In the second dream of Nebuchadnezzar (Daniel 4) he called all the wise men to interpret it. Rabbi Moshe Dovid Walli asks why in the world didn't he just summon Daniel who had already told him one dream that he had forgotten completely with its interpretation, and he had been so blown away that he had bowed down to GD in him and brought up offerings before him. RMDW answers that Nebuchadnezzar was so confused that he forgot about Daniel!
(This is like what our Sages revealed that after one passes away and he forgets his own name...).

Never, never, never ever forget Rabbainu Na Nach Nachma Nachman MeUman!

Revenge - a murdered Jew is buried with a knife - and he takes them out one by one

HH


In the time of the Ba"ch, the gentiles were jealous of a successful Jewish merchant, so they murdered him R"L. When they buried him, they put a small knife in the grave, as was the custom for a murdered Jew. Afterwards a gentile saw this murdered Jew chasing after him with a knife, and he killed him, and this reoccurred time and time again, and he was intent on killing all of them... until an apostate Jew figured out what was happening, and the gentiles said that the next day they would dig up the grave and if they found a knife there they would G"F kill out all the Jews. That night the Bach's father came to him in a dream and warned him to remove the knife from the grave, the Bach didn't believe in dreams, but it happened 3 times, so he took note and sent the Chevra Kadisha to extract the knife. They dug up the grave and saw Yosselle with the knife in his hand, and try as they might they couldn't remove it. So they told the Bach, the Bach told them to tell Yosselle that they would learn mishnayos for him and all sorts of such favors, but it was to no avail, Yosselle wouldn't give up the knife! It was nearing daybreak so the Bach came in person, and wasn't successful. Finally the Bach whispered something in his ear, and Yosselle gave up the knife, and they sealed up the grave. That day the gentiles dug up the grave and saw that there was no knife. No one was able to divulge from the Bach the secret which he whispered into Yosselle's ear. When the Bach died he revealed that he promised Yosselle that in return for saving the city, he as the Rav of the city would be buried next to him, and so it was...


Na Nach Nachma Nachman MeUman

Light in broken dreams

HH

last night I lit to wicks in olive oil, they are still burning now in the merit of Na Nach Nachma Nachman MeUman, Rabbi Akiva, and the Ramchal. Originally I had them burning on the top of my closed laptop. Sometime in the wee early hours of the morning I took a little nap and had quite vivid dreams, part of what I remember was having a hole and a crack in the screen of my laptop, which afterwards resulted or turned out to be the whole screen completely broken up -- rachmana litzlun. What I take it to mean is a spiritual cleansing of the screen which unfortunately has displayed much that needs cleansing... such is the power of a little flame of the tzaddik....

Virtual and augmented reality

HH

With the advent of cameras and movies people got a better idea of what our Sages revealed thousands of years ago (Ethics of Our Fathers) that G-d watches and records everything.

The telephone got people to understand how we can always speak directly to G-d.

Now with virtual and augmented reality and movies like fx, people are beginning to understand the actuality of the Unity of G-d, and this whole world is like a dream (Psalms, song of ascension).

The Song of Redemption begins to renew the world!
