The Tree That Stands In Space
For thousands of years, the Jewish mystical tradition has been a carefully guarded secret, its profound insights concealed in often bewildering riddles and hints. However, with the advent of the Baal Shem Tov (1698 – 1760) and the birth of the Chassidic movement, the mists of secrecy began to rise. Rebbe Nachman was able to show that even the most advanced scholar had not yet begun to ascend the hieghts of the spirit – yet he could show the most seemingly common person that God’s radiance surrounds him, that God’s compassion extends to all. This eye-opening introduction to some of Rebbe Nachman’s teachings highlights the experiential aspect of this approach as it discusses subjects such as: humility, Divine illumination, taming the mind, transcending conflict, meditation and other subjects.
