He received his letter via Rabbi Y. — and it was a very great comfort — in seeing the great deeds of Hashem — as he himself understood from afar the matter of the Torah Azam'rah — and from this one sees how the messengers always go to and fro for the eternal purpose. For all the messengering and all the missions and all the melachos and works in the world — all of it — is only for the eternal purpose. For "b'chol makom muktar u'mugash lishmi" — "in every place incense is offered and brought to My name" — even and so forth — as our Sages said [see Menachos 110]. And even in the concealment within concealment that comes through the very abundance of sins — G-d protect us — even there Hashem is hidden — for He is the Torah. And on the contrary — precisely there is hidden the Torah of Hashem literally — as is written in chapter 56 — see there well. And if there is no one who will understand this — and all the more so we — even so — blessed are we that we believe in this in any case. For great is Hashem and very much to be praised — and His greatness has no end.
And know my beloved son — that yesterday their dear friend Rabbi Nachman — may his light shine — went from here for the sake of the holy work — some hour close to Minchah — he went out from his house on foot — with alacrity — for such a journey. For praised be G-d — he is aflame with wondrous enthusiasm for this work — and he did not want to be delayed until after the holy Shabbas. Blessed be Hashem Who in our lowliness remembered us — and in the narrow place expanded for us — that people are found who volunteer with their money and their bodies for this. In this I see the wonders of Hashem which it is impossible to explain. "Rabbos asisa Atah Hashem" — and so forth — "agidah va'adabeirah — atzmu mi'sapper." And to Hashem our eyes are lifted — may He add and add His chesed and His mercies — that they merit to complete all as His will and the will of His fearers. Hashem yigmor ba'adeinu l'tovah. And because of the great urgency it is impossible to extend.
The words of your father — who sees and understands and believes in the salvation of Hashem and the wonders of His chasadim at every time — and who awaits and hopes for salvations and chasadim greater than these — until they all merit to be as His good will in truth — and to know Him Yisborach in this world and in the World to Come forever.

And from yourself you will understand the comfort that is to him from this mission — for every person is obligated to say: for my sake the world was created — and all that happens in the world — all of it is for my sake — and so forth.
Overview: Friday, Erev Shabbas Kodesh Parshas Lech L'cha — Breslov — 5603. To his beloved son. He received his letter via Rabbi Y. — and it was a very great comfort — in seeing the great deeds of Hashem — as he himself understood from afar the matter of the Torah Azam'rah.

And even in the concealment within concealment that comes through the abundance of sins — G-d protect us — even there Hashem is hidden — for He is the Torah. And on the contrary — precisely there is hidden the Torah of Hashem literally — as is written in chapter 56. And if there is no one who will understand this — and all the more so we — even so — blessed are we that we believe in this in any case. For great is Hashem.
