and other stories told by Rabbi Nachman of Breslov
This book contains stories told by the great Chassidic tzaddik Rabbi Nachman of Breslov. They, in allegorical, fantastic form given in-depth knowledge about the world, history, human destiny and the role that man is called to play on the stage of life. The heroes of these stories that pass through various life collisions by the example of his fate teaches the reader valuable lessons in self-realization and overcoming obstacles, which is full of his life's path.
The text of these stories - layered. Some knowledge is presented in the form of artless tale in its literal sense, others handed allegory, woven into the subtext and identified by careful analysis of the text and plot. Deep Kabbalistic knowledge encoded in these stories, open only to the initiated.
The book is the text of the four stories, accompanied by an analytical comment. I would like to express the hope that reading this book will give readers the joy of contact with the great spiritual tradition, and will be of great benefit in life.
