Why A Tzaddik? Why Rebbe Nachman? Why Uman?
Chances are you’ve been to Uman. If not, you certainly know someone who’s traveled to that now-famous Ukrainian town for Rosh HaShanah or another time of the year to pray at Rebbe Nachman’s gravesite.

Ask A Breslover: Why don’t you turn your wives into Chassidim?
Q: Rebbe Nachman once asked, “Why don’t you turn your wives into Chassidim?” What does that mean to us? A: This is a tough one, I have heard several different approaches.

Rebbe Nachman’s kever stays in Uman
In the last few years the issue of re-locating Rebbe Nachman’s kever (grave) to Eretz Yisrael (the Land of Israel) has been bandied about a number of times. Usually, those who suggest the move are vociferous, well-meaning, but ignorant of Breslov tradition and, often, not even affiliated with Breslov in any way. Various reasons, many … Continue Reading
What Women Seek in Uman
We’ve all heard about the tens of thousands of men who fly to Uman for Rosh HaShanah; many of us know someone who goes every year.
