Trip to Saba for Chag Hapetek

HH

On the bus to Jerusalem, half way there, my comfortable empty neighboring seat was taken up by a soldier, I gave him a nice smile, but I was thinking "great" there goes that... Turns out that this Rosh Hashana Yinon made it to Uman and was privileged to hook up with Moshe Ofir and Sharon Knafo, and he was still in "oaroat" (lights.- on  a high..). He also showed me an app. moovit or something like that, might be helpful. Anyway he was very inspired and glad to learn that it was-is Chag Hapetek, and has renewed yearning to make it to Uman again for Rosh Hashana.

Then I was waiting by the Central Bus Station in Jerusalem for the 54 to take me to Har Hamenuchas, and I was Nanaching everyone, finally settling down to shmooze with a guy from the old city who remembered the last time we shmoozed six years ago, B"H.... He told me that he saw on the electric sign that the 54 was coming any minute, and we continued speaking for much longer, and he said that it wasn't showing anymore and I called egged and they told me that the bus was already long gone. Obviously this shmooze was more important, and I proceeded on foot (that was the last bus for the day), and Nanached everyone on the way, and some israeli bochurim. Finally right before the entrance to Jerusalem, I got two american bochurim (laufer and florence) from Ner Moshe, and gave them a full braiwashing session for maybe a half hour, all in the merit of being passed up by the 54. Then I Nanached everyone by the trampiade (where they hitch-tramp) and got a ride fairly quickly. Made it to Saba, had the holy tomb for myself for a few minutes (there was a guy manning the books on the road above) before a bunch of Nanach came. And Yaakov Sarusi from Petek Tikva drove me back to bus station, and I left him with a nice stash of Peteks and handful of the booklet Letter from Heaven in Hebrew.

BH today I hope to make it to R' Meir Bal Hanais - the place of the miracle of the receiving of the holy Petek.

What does it take to qualify to be Nanach?

HH

This is an old question with many humorous answers [- check out this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WVfdWMT0a28]. The bottom line, in my opinion is that being Nanach means that one completely understands and accepts Rabbi Nachman to be the first and final authority on every facet of life. There are those that argue that this attainable without believing in the holy petek, but in my opinion that is not possible.

To make it clear with a few fundamentals, being Nanach according to the above criteria, means not having any association with any contemporary rabbi, and it means that one is extremely active – or knows that he should be – in hafatza (dissemination of Rabbi Nachman's teachings). It means that the most important thing in his life, other than hafatza and Rabbainu himself (don't start saying Hashem, because this article is written on Hashem and with Hashem), is getting up to start the day at midnight, which is 6 hours after nightfall, and the highest devotion is hisbodidus, followed by learning Rabbainu's torah, and it would be ideal for him to be occupied the entire day just doing hisbodidus. When there is any issue or question, he isn't interested in anything but what Rabbainu has to say about it, and what he can clarify in hisbodidus.

Now there are those who claim that is possible to meet all the above and so forth, and not believe in the Petek, I don't think so, maybe such a person would not openly be Nanach, but ultimately he would believe in his heart. If it is possible, than obviously the person is not Nanach, and very very very very far from Nanach. Because the main thing is Rabbainu, and Rabbainu is Na Nach Nachma Nachman MeUman!

The entire redemption is contingent on Rabbainu and his name Na Nach Nachma Nachman MeUman!

The Nanach realizes this, that more than anything he can achieve or fathom, everything is dependent on Rabbainu and his name Na Nach Nachma Nachman MeUman!

That is why I am used to telling people, that the bottom line is, when you are Nanach, you will know it and say it, and until then hang in there. Nanach makes life very clear, everything falls in place.
