Unique: 4

The concept of setting aside time for meditation has a long tradition in Judaism. However, generally the concept was to devote the time to focusing on separating from the physical world, engaging in self-reckoning, and contemplating the existence of God.
Rebbe Nachman taught something else entirely. He taught a path by which one can reach holy places, touch the sparks of Moshiach ben Dovid, to come close to Hashem in the highest manner possible, just as Adam was prior to the Sin. To achieve ה' בדד ינחנו, to find God in one's meditation and to be led by His voice and to fully unite the bestower and recipient.
