About this listen

Why did Rebbe Nachman act like a barefoot child skipping through the streets of Istanbul?

This shiur dives deep into one of the most mysterious chapters of Rebbe Nachman’s life — his legendary journey to Eretz Yisrael. Disguises, self-imposed humiliation, childish games, and life-threatening danger made every step of his journey its own form of spiritual combat.

Drawing from the writings of Rav Nosson and the teachings in Likkutei Moharan, we explore why Rebbe Nachman insisted on entering the Holy Land through קטנות (smallness), ביזיונות (disgrace), and complete self-nullification. What did he know that we don’t?

Rebbe Nachman's story is a roadmap for anyone trying to grow in their Yiddishkeit, to strip away ego, to embrace the fall before the ascent, and to walk the strange, beautiful path toward real spiritual transformation.
