How to get closer to God | Day 1 | Hitbodedut

This is Day 1 of a series on how to get closer to God utilizing the practice ... Hitbodedut. We will be reading together one of Rebbe Nachman's books, "Outpouring of the soul." This practice has changed my life. Be sure to subscribe to get notified when every new video comes out. One of Rebbe Nachman’s major teachings, perhaps his most important and best known, focuses on private, secluded prayer. This practice, known simply as hitbodedut, is the ultimate level in our relationship to God. Likewise, hitbodedut is the tool with which to seek out and find our place: in the world at large; in our family; among friends and within the community; and, most importantly, within ourselves. It gives us the opportunity to release all our inner feelings – the joys and depressions, the successes and frustrations, that greet us each day. Through hitbodedut, we examine ourselves and re-examine ourselves, correcting the flaws and errors of the past, while seeking the proper path for the future. It cannot fail! Reb Noson wrote that Rebbe Nachman attained the level he did primarily through hitbodedut (Rebbe Nachman’s Wisdom: His Praises #10). However, it wasn’t only the Rebbe who rose to such great and lofty levels of spirituality because of hitbodedut. Rebbe Nachman himself said: All of the Tzaddikim were only able to attain the great levels they did because they practiced hitbodedut (Likutey Moharan II, 100). Do your utmost to spend at least an hour every day in private prayer and meditation. Express yourself in your own words in the language you understand best. Talk about all the things you are going through. Admit your sins and transgressions, both intentional and unintentional. Speak to God the way you would to a close friend: tell Him what you’re going through – your pain, the various pressures you are under, your personal situation and that of others in your home, and also of the Jewish people as a whole. Talk about everything in full. Argue with God in whatever way you can. Through hitbodedut, we examine ourselves and re-examine ourselves, correcting the flaws and errors of the past, while seeking the proper path for the future. Press Him, plead with Him to help you come genuinely closer to Him. Cry out, shout and groan, sigh and weep. Give thanks to God for all the love He has shown you in both spiritual and material matters. Sing to God and praise Him and then ask for whatever you need, spiritually and materially. Have faith that the satisfaction God derives from such conversations with even the lowliest of all people is more precious to Him than all other kinds of devotions, even those devotions of the angels in all the worlds. Even if you can’t open your mouth at all, just the fact that you stand there putting your hope in God, lifting your eyes upwards and forcing yourself to speak and even if you say no more than a single word the entire time – all this endures forever (Likutey Moharan II, 95-101 etc.).
