Nachman of Breslov
translation from Hebrew by Catherine B. Krause
נחמן מברסלב — כל העולם כולו
כל העולם כולו גשר צר מאוד
והעיקר — לא לפחד כלל.
A Very Narrow Bridge
The whole world is all a very narrow bridge,
and what’s important is to fear nothing at all.
Rebbe Nachman (1772-1810) achieved much acclaim as a teacher and spiritual leader, and is considered a seminal figure in the history of Hasidism.
Catherine B. Krause often falls off bridges shaking.
