If One Listens to the Voice of the Tzaddik, They Have Sustenance for a Billion Years - Sukkot from the Esteemed Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a

"The people of Israel came into the world to sit in one sukkah, all of Israel is worthy to sit in one sukkah. In all the colors, our Rebbe taught us that all of Israel is worthy to sit in one sukkah, therefore we say 'Please, Hashem, save now, please, Hashem, make us succeed now.' 'Save' has the letters of Yehoshua, as all the holidays are opened by the power of Yehoshua bin Nun. Therefore, the yud is divided into a vav and dalet - 10. The hei, also 10. The vav - 16. Shin - 60. Ayin - 156."

In the honorable and magnificent event of the great hilula in honor of the yahrzeit of the holy lamp in 5779, Rebbe Nachman of Breslov in Holon, our teacher the esteemed Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a spoke words.

"We came into the world only to recognize Yosef the Tzaddik, the world was created only to join with this - to make a connection with the tzaddik. Everything a person comes into the world for is to reveal the true tzaddik, therefore one must study Shas and Gemara, all to reveal the true tzaddik. We call upon the human soul, all of a person's work from the moment they are born is to reveal the true tzaddik, all generations are drawn from the true tzaddik. All generations and souls are all sparks from the true tzaddik."

"On Simchat Torah we will begin the book of Bereishit, after that will come Shabbat Bereishit, Bereishit is the head of the house upon which the whole world and all generations stand. I can bite a tree from the many sufferings I have, the Rebbe said he could cut a tree with his teeth from the many sufferings he took upon himself until the end of all generations. The Rebbe took upon himself all the sufferings of the Holocaust, everything the Rebbe took upon himself, therefore it is worthwhile to use the merit of our Rebbe."

"The Rebbe came into the world to sweeten all the judgments, which is the secret of Sukkot, that today (Monday of Chol HaMoed Sukkot) we are in Chesed ShebeTiferet and tomorrow in Chesed of Netzach - from tomorrow everything is sweetened. From tomorrow one can eat anything, because from tomorrow everything is sweetened. The moment we reach Chesed ShebeNetzach everything is sweetened, all the work is to reach Chesed ShebeNetzach. But, how can one reach Chesed ShebeNetzach, where do we take the strength from? Therefore, we traveled to Uman, they sawed Leah from the Zeir Anpin, the Rebbe said, 'From now on everyone comes to Erev Rosh Hashanah, without exception. From now on everyone should prepare that on Friday they will be in Uman, so that on Erev Rosh Hashanah they will be there."

"Our Rebbe does all the rectifications on Erev Rosh Hashanah, all generations, even thirty and a hundred weights. Anyone who cried out thirty and a hundred weights rectified everything. All the sins, all the blemishes since the sin of the first man, there is no sin that is not rectified when crying out together thirty and a hundred weights, this is the sukkah of the skin of the Leviathan. This is the secret of the Leviathan that Jonah the prophet entered, Jonah did not want to give rebuke, he preferred to be swallowed in the belly of the Leviathan rather than give rebuke. Through Jonah the prophet one can reach anywhere in the world."

"If one listens to the voice of the tzaddik, they have sustenance for a billion years."
