Three reasons God created the world

 HH

The Ramchal wrote[1] that kabbala has three types of knowledge, each more internal than the other, and this stems from the knowledge of the intended purpose of the creation of the world.

The superficial intention is that the Creator blessed His Name created His world to give place for descriptive titles, that He is called, Merciful and Gracious, Patient, and so forth. Following this intention there is the entire field of knowledge of the Holy Tree with all its branches (-the entire structure of all the worlds). This is called the knowledge of the descriptive titles; to know how many descriptive title there are, i.e. how many attributes, how many sefiros, and in what order they are arranged, and how they derived one from another. This knowledge doesn’t extend outside this border.

The second field of knowledge in the matter of the intention of the creation, is that the Creator blessed is His Name created the world to do good to the created, complete goodness – that they receive by means of merit and not as charity. Therefore He set this entire great arrangement, at the very end, after the evil comes the good, and the evil realm is abolished, and the holy is completed, and then all the souls will receive by their merit. And so it is necessary that sometimes the evil realm rules, or the nations of the world, until Israel is purified. Pursuant to this is the functioning of all the attributes [of the first field of knowledge].  

The third field of knowledge of the intention of creation, which is a very wondrous knowledge, is that the Creator blessed is His Name desired to reveal His unity, to show that “I am first and I am last”, and ultimately every curse will be turned around to be a blessing, and every evil will return to be good. And this is the secret of the verse (Isaiah 12:1) I will praise You Hashem because You were wroth with me etc.. Pursuant to this is the knowledge that all the sefiros – that they all return to the supernal unity of the Ain Soaf blessed He. And this matter has not been understood so much in our generation. And it is truly the main faith of Israel – to know the unity of the Creator blessed is His Name, and to come to this knowledge one needs great effort. And someone who attains this knowledge, he will understand all the matters of this wisdom with great depth. However, someone who doesn’t at least attain knowledge of the second field – certainly he didn’t understand anything.

The Virtue of Saying Na Nach Nachma Nachman MayUman 51-65

HH

51

This is a universal Melody, a universal Melody, "Na Nach Nachma Nachman MayUman," this is, "It is a big mitzvah (-good deed) to be happy always," so the whole world sings this, the entire world, even the Gentiles sing this. (Saba laughs) He gives life, and renews, and rectifies all of Israel, when Messiah comes there will be a new world, not the world that is now, there will be a new world!

(Tape 23b)

52

All the soldiers, those who go to war and into a dangerous place, and there is danger, they should say just, "Na Nach."

(Sichos Saba 22:4)

53

The whole world loves Rabbi Nachman, and they praised and say: "Such a sage has never yet been in the world, such radiance of wisdom has never yet been revealed in the world." Now it will be revealed, there will be a new world.

This is a Torah (-holy teaching) of Rabbainu Hakadosh, he revealed that he is "Nachman," this is the explanation: "Nachman" is "Na Nach Nachma Nachman" - the apex of perfection.

[Visitor: Who is "Na Nach" Saba?] "Na Nach Nachman," Rabbainu Hakadosh revealed that he is (this) "Nachman," what is "Nachman"?

He revealed this, there was never yet any revelation of this in the world, now he himself revealed who he is, (he) is "Na Nach Nachma Nachman," that's him/it.

This is - no tzadik revealed this, no (excerpt from the) Talmud, just Rabbainu Hakadoash himself, he revealed this, that he is “Nachman,” “Na Nach Nachma Nachman.”

(Tape 68b)

54

By him there are all the cures for us, and all the salvations that we need, instantly, just (with) faith, “Na Nach Nachma Nachman” is replete with all the Torah, and the healings, and all the salvations!

(Tape 28b)

55

It is necessary that the whole world will be filled with “Na Nach,” every door. There’s a door? “Na Nach!” [Visitor: Good, and every car as well?] Ah, every car? [visitor: also?] yes.

(Tape 37b)

57

“Na Nach” – a song, a melody, such a melody, that it can turn the whole world around to Hashem Yisburach.

(Tape 104a)

57

[Visitor: But Saul says that they read the Petek, and they ask, “What is this? What is this?”] This, every/any one can answer this: This is Rabbainu revealing that he is this song, that will turn the whole world around to Hashem Yisburach, to the Torah. “Na Nach” – single (pashoot), double (cafool), triple (mishoolush), quadruple (miroovuh). “Na” with a patach (-a Hebrew vowel in the form of a horizontal line under the consonant) – “Na Nach Nachma Nachman MayUman.” And also “MayUman (from Uman),” this isn’t regular: The world knows “Breslov,” “Rabbi Nachman of Breslov,” but in the Petek it is written “MayUman (-from Uman)” – “From Uman,” this is the explanation, that it was written and signed in Uman.

[Visitor: Does this have more intentions, Rabbi Yisroel?] Ah? [“And the redeemer will come to Zion (-Zion is also a reference to the marking of a holy tomb, most notably that of Rabbainu’s)(Isaiah 59:20 and in the daily services)”] “And a redeemer will come to Zion…” to the tzion (-marking of a holy tomb) of Rabbainu in Uman, the redeemer will also come! [Visitor: Because of this, this is “From Uman”] “MayUman (-from Uman),” yes, from the place where he is, yes, “from Uman.”

(Sichos Saba 22:2)

58

[Saba sings “Na Nach Nachma Nachman MayUman”] He will give cures to all the severely sick, that are beyond help, then they will be healed immediately.

(Tape 82a)

59

Just the melody “Na Nach,” this, the whole world comes for a rectification, already the whole world is in a complete rectification.

The entire way I prayed for you and I sang the tune “Na Nach.”

(Tape 23)

60

In the time of the redemption there will be completely new (events/phenomena/news), and Rabbi Nachman is everything, all the Torah, all the wisdom, whoever learns some matter of Rabbi Nachman, he will be completely abnegated. “Na Nach Nachma Nachman MayUman,” this is the whole world, this is the whole Torah and all the wisdoms.

(Tape 73b)

61

I was already in the hand of the Angel of Death, he doesn’t (-didn’t) want to release me, but I sang “Na Nach,” so this killed him, he fled, he fled. (Saba laughs). I was close to death not (just) once, and I had not hope of living, and Baruch (-Blessed, Thank) Hashem, Rabbainu Hakadoash resuscitated me, and extricated me from everything, yes.

(Tape 23b)

62

Noo (a Yiddish prompt), do you feel better? [Visitor: Yes, I already feel better] Yes? [visitor: yes] “Na Nach,” then everything is good!

(Tape 23b)

63

[Saba and the friends sing] “Na Nach Nachma Nachman MayUman.” (Saba laughs) What? What do you (plural) think? It is over?! It is still not finished! (Saba sings) “Na Nach Nachma Nachman MayUman”… [Visitor: This is a song without bounds, a song that renews each time! It renews all the time this song!] Yes! Every day and every night! [Visitor: This is a new song! Every day new!] Yes. (Saba laughs).

(Sichos Saba 28b)

64

“Na Nach Nachma Nachman MayUman” he will drive the whole world crazy.

(Tape 10b)

65

Sleep?! It is forbidden to sleep! Because they need to sing “Na Nach.” He doesn’t let sleep! (Saba laughs).

(Sichos Saba 38)

Triggers programmed to holiness - Na Nach Nachma Nachman MeUman!

HH

Reverting evil to the epitome of holiness and good

When a person is confronted by bad thoughts, hears vulgar language, or sees enticing thing, all of which bombard his mind, swamping him with ill desires trying to overwhelm him to give up his hold and give in, plunge down Heaven forbid, and when a person accustoms himself to scream to Hashem Yisburach at all such instances, to scream and scream with all his heart and might, in this way he ultimately brings about a fundamental phenomenal tikkun. For in this way the person trains and ingrains in himself that these images, sounds, or thoughts trigger strong crying out to Hashem Yisburach. Everytime this person experiences such and such, together with the evil urge comes a strong shouting and upheaval to find refuge in the mercy and unity of Hashem Yisburach. In time, it may take one day, one year, twenty or fifty years, it could take till after he dies, but eventually the evil lure will fade, and the objects of enticement will remain bare skeletons of emptiness, and now they will only be conduits and reminders of the holiness which they conjured. The most disgusting perverted glamor which held so many captive to the other side will actually conjure only yearning and longing for Hashem Yisburach!

Sometimes unfortunately we are afflicted by opposite, certain words or images invoke in us reminders of something unholy, and we must do our utmost to reprogram these instinctive reflex triggers to holy ones. Take the time to address it head on, if it is a word, try to figure out how this word actually has holy roots and persuasion, something to latch on to and project for yourself instead of the unholy. Empower the good venue you found with strong conviction, which itself is screaming to Hashem Yisburach to help afix you on the path of holiness.

In this way one changes the whole world for the good, sanctifying his surrounding and his very well-being. Rabbi Nachman said that there is a construct that everything is turned to good.

Na Nach Nachma Nachman MeUman!
