In these days between Pesach and Shavuot, as we ascend from the physical redemption of Egypt to the spiritual redemption of receiving the Torah, we are given the precious gift of Sefirat HaOmer—a time of inner refinement and growth.
But the journey is not always easy. The yetzer hara (evil inclination) does everything it can to distract us, weaken our resolve, and make us feel that our efforts are small and ineffective. Rebbe Nachman and Reb Noson teach us, however, that even the smallest step toward holiness—especially during this time—has tremendous power.
That’s why we’re honored to share this heartfelt collection of prayers from Reb Noson to help you count the Omer with intention, longing, and joy. These prayers are taken from Likutey Tefilot, in the English translation from our edition of The 50th Gate, which you can get here.
Enjoy, and be sure to take advantage of this special opportunity to connect deeply during these holy days.
