LETTER TWO HUNDRED AND FORTY-FIVE
With the help of Hashem Yisborach  ·  Tuesday, Parshas Re'eh — Uman  ·  Year 5597 (1837)
To My beloved son — my dear one.

On Friday Erev Shabbas Kodesh I wrote you a letter — and afterwards on the past Sunday your letter arrived via the post. Just now there is no word on my tongue to innovate anything — for my mind is not clear at all — only know that my intention is to travel — if Hashem wills — after Erev Rosh Chodesh coming upon us for good — to my home — and my desire is to be on Shabbas Parshas Shoftim in Breslov. And Hashem will lead me in peace — in the way of truth and the straight path. And I have already replied to you in advance in my letter from Friday — and there it is included — an answer also to the letter I received afterwards as above.

Even though I believe that every single day wondrous and awesome innovations are made — *"mah rabbu ma'asecha Hashem"* — "how great are Your deeds Hashem" [Tehillim 104:24] and so forth — as we say every day: *"u'v'tuvo m'chadesh b'chol yom tamid ma'aseh bereishis — mah rabbu"* and so forth — and I see with my eyes new wonders at every time — even so — it is impossible to express all this in particular in the open field. Only I reminded you of this — for I already spoke about this greatly — and it is very necessary to remember this every day — in order to strengthen himself to begin every day and every time anew. And Hashem Yisborach will strengthen our hearts to prepare ourselves from now — to merit to have a new year renewed upon us on the holy Rosh Hashanah coming upon us for good. And from the greatness of the preoccupation of my mind — it is impossible to extend at all. Only his love compelled him to write to him even now.

The words of your father who awaits salvation.

Nussun of Breslov.

And abundant peace to all our anshei sh'lomaynu with great love.

Overview: Tuesday, Parshas Re'eh — Uman. To Yitzchok. On Friday Erev Shabbas wrote him a letter — and afterwards on the past Sunday his letter arrived via the post. Just now no word on his tongue to innovate anything — mind not clear at all — only know that his intention is to travel after Erev Rosh Chodesh to his home — his desire is to be on Shabbas Parshas Shoftim in Breslov. Hashem will lead him in peace in the way of truth and the straight path. Already replied to him in advance in his letter from Friday — and there it is included an answer also to the letter received afterwards. Even though he believes that every single day wondrous and awesome innovations are made — "mah rabbu ma'asecha Hashem" — and he sees with his eyes new wonders at every time — even so — impossible to express all this in particular in the open field. Only reminded him of this — it is very necessary to remember this every day — in order to strengthen himself to begin every day and every time anew. Hashem will strengthen our hearts to prepare ourselves from now — to merit to have a new year renewed upon us on the holy Rosh Hashanah coming upon us for good. From the greatness of the preoccupation of his mind — impossible to extend at all. Only his love compelled him to write even now.
