TO BE HAPPY, TRULY Rabbi Nachman of Breslov's teachings

 



TO BE HAPPY, TRULY

(Rabbi Nachman of Breslov famously taught, “It is a great mitzvah to be happy always.")

 

Aren't you Happy? Let's work this out, my good friend.

 

There is the best specialist in the world for this cause and available to everyone, from whatever level one is presently at, and he listens to the big millionaires as well as the poor, at no cost (laughs), the main requirement is just accept what he recommends. Are you ready to open your heart to the Tzaddik? Come on, he'll hear you.

 

It's good and healthy to be Happy and living in a Joy mood, our teacher, Rebbe Nachman, the Light of Lights, teach us; even in an involuntary way, we must not surrender to problems, doubts, losses... we must strive to be happy and see the beautiful things around us and within us, see the miracles and wonders like rain, all the delicious and nutritious fruits, the abundant food. Sometimes we consider things casual in Nature and Environment, the Creator provided thousands of beauties and resources to man, we were given much more than we deserve. These are good reasons to be very happy.

 

In these moments, a good recommendation is to stop wanting "receive to ourselves" and wish to share, yes, to give of our time and resources to other people, you will be better for doing good, contributing to the well-being of other people, it will lead you to happiness, your presence is important in this world, every act of kindness benefits the whole world.

 

Here are some powerful insights from Rabbi Nachman of Breslov:

 

“Make every effort to maintain a happy, positive outlook at all times”

 

“There is a way in which everything can be turned to good”

 

“If you are happy, the whole world benefits”

 

“You must search for the good in yourself, you should always try to be happy and serve G-d with joy, G-d will soon help you and His light will shine on you again”

 

“You should feel so happy when you do a mitzvah that you don’t do it merely to receive a reward”

 

“It is a wonderful thing when people dance for joy for the sake of a mitzvah!”

 

“The way to come to joy is through Torah and Prayer”
