אות-ח

They told over to me that he said, that from little to big, it is impossible to be a truly kosher person except through doing hisbodidus. And he mentioned many many famous true tzaddikim, and said, that all of them did not come to their (high) level except through hisbodidus. And he also took (for example) a simple person who was from the progeny of the Baal Shem Tov za.tza.l., and he said, also this (person) expresses his words at all times before Hashem Yisburach with great crying. And he said, that the progeny of the Baal Shem Tov are exceedingly regular at this, for they are the progeny of King David r.i.p., and the whole occupation of David was this affair, that he would very much break his heart before Hashem Yisburach always, for this is the main (-way it came about) Book of Psalms that he founded, as is explained elsewhere (See Likutay Moharan vol. 2, Torah 101, Words of Rabbi Nachman article 68). (Likutay Moharan vol. 2, Torah 100)
