A Burning Flame: The Yahrzeit of Rabbi Nosson

The holy hillula of the mighty gaon who is our strength and our glory—Rabbeinu Rabbi Nosson of Breslov zy"a, the faithful disciple of the Light of all lights, the holy Na Nach Nachma Nachman—Rebbe Nachman of Breslov zy"a—this sacred gathering with The Rav, the holy gaon and tzaddik Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a.

One hundred and seventy-nine years since the passing of Moharanat zy"a—this holy yahrzeit that is celebrated in Breslov communities around the world each year at its appointed time, the 10th of Teves—and in the central hillula held by the holy Breslov community of Shuvu Banim. A community that adds joy upon joy, and every 10th of Teves also celebrates the miracle of The Rav Rabbi Berland shlit"a’s release with a Seudas Hoda’ah (a thanksgiving meal).

In the Pavilion halls in Jerusalem, about five thousand Chassidim, students, and those who have drawn close gathered tightly together in song and dancing with The Rav Rabbi Berland shlit"a.

The Rav shlit"a delivered his holy words in honor of the hillula—words of holy fire, burning brightly.
