""Moses began to explain this Torah" (Deuteronomy 1), Moses waited 40 years to receive the Torah. The Rebbe (Rebbe Nachman) conveys all the instructions for this generation through Rav Sukkot, who merited to serve me for 50 years. We first met at a brit milah at Rabbi David Kramer. His father (Rabbi Moshe Kramer) merited that our Rebbe would transmit everything through him, because until the coming of Mashiach there will not be another such neshamah (soul). He merited to be an ibur (spiritual impregnation) of our Rebbe himself."

"5778 is the year of the coming of Mashiach. The Path said, 'Wherever I gather, there will be the borders', in the year 5642 (1881-1882) no one dreamed of a state, they did not dream of borders. The year 'I Will Go Up in the Palm' (referring to the aliyah of Jews from Yemen who ascended to Eretz Yisrael in the years 5641-5642 (1881). The immigrants connected their aliyah with the verse "I said, I will go up in the palm" (Song of Songs 7:9), because the word "in the palm" is a rearrangement of the letters of 5642.). This is the greatest year that ever was, the year of the aliyah from Yemen, but they placed them in caves near the grave of Rabbi Ovadiah of Bartenura (commentator on the Mishnah). The immigrants from Yemen lived there for a year or two."

"Prayer is only for the Jews, but today even among us, we do not know how to pray, one must say word by word in prayer, otherwise the abundance does not descend. Only Rebbe Nachman says, "I will declare Your emunah (faith) with my mouth" (Psalms 89:2), emunah is with the mouth, not in the heart. People say, I have emunah in my heart, I am pure, a pure heart, emunah is, "I will declare Your emunah with my mouth", not to lie in bed or listen on the line and continue sleeping. Emunah is to rise and say the korbanot, because everyone owes a guilt offering, owes a sin offering, and if not in this incarnation, then in the previous one."
