Rebbe Nachman of Breslov (1772-1810) a great-grandson of the Baal Shem Tov was Chassidic Rebbe, who although controversial in his time, has gained great popularity in Israel today. Known for his emphasis on joy, personal prayer and his pronounced antinomianism, his teachings weave together mystical, contemplative, devotional, embodiment and shamanistic modes of serving Hashem. In this class we'll be opening his magnum-opus, Likutey Moharan from the very beginning and delve into his teaching seeking meaningful guidance in deepening our connection with Hashem and growing as individuals and in community.
About Rabbi Barya Schachter
Rabbi Barya Schachter, grew up in the Jewish Renewal movement as it coalesced around his father, Reb Zalman and received Orthodox Semicha from Rabbi Riskin of Efrat after spending nine years studying in Israel. A modern Breslever Chassid, he strives to draw on the experiential piety of Hasidut in order to face the challenges of the contemporary world. He sees halacha more as instructions for shamanic rights rather than a system of law, and as such particularly enjoys DIY mitzvah projects like doing his own Shechita, making homemade Matzah and tying Tzitzit. Striving to integrate his experiences with martial arts, football and alternative medicine, he approaches Torah and prayer with an eye towards embodiment practice as an emerging modality in serving Hashem.
