From the preface of Rabi NATHAN TO THE FIRST EDITION "Sipura MAASIYOT" in Yiddish and Hebrew
Know that every word in this book - the Holy of Holies, and contains the secrets of the Torah. Deliver your Gd to treat these stories as ordinary fairy tales - they told the great saint, the holy Rebbe Nachman Braslavsky, blessed memory, who wanted to teach us to serve God. If we, with God's help, comprehend the greatest secrets hidden in these fairy tales, and understand contained in each of these morals, then we have become so used-goboyaznennymi what we would like to see the Creator.
These stories have a wonderful property that they are able to awaken everyone from spiritual slumber - that the person is not, Gd forbid, not slept in vain all his life. Anyone who reads this book with an open heart, closer to understand the greatness of the Creator. Even the simplest Jew in a position to learn from it: it is necessary to get rid of the vain and think about the meaning of life - and then the worldly vanity will not be able to fool people.
May God grant us the Almighty Messiah - soon, in our days. Amen!
