The Story of the Seven Betlers

The story was originally conceived and narrated by a Teacher and Sage who lived in Eastern Europe in the eighteen hundreds. His name was Nachman from Breslov.

The story can be enjoyed on the literal level, or as an analogy, and also it can be read on an esoteric level. Therefore it lends itself to a wide readership.

The intent of Rabbi Nachman was to garment deep sublime concepts in simple story form. Their insightful simplicity and depth have the same charm and relevance today as they did then. Therein lies their greatness.

Orah has illustrated the original text and added subtle comments which in some way lend interpretation.
