Following the frail medical condition of our teacher, Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a (may he live long and good days), all the students of our teacher the Rav shlit"a from all over the country are gathering this coming Wednesday for an assembly of prayer and outcry, that the Master of the Universe should have pity and mercy on us and heal with a complete healing our teacher, Rabbi Eliezer ben Ettia Berland shlit"a, among the rest of the sick of Israel.

Before you is an awesome message from the Mashpia (spiritual mentor), the Gaon and Tzaddik Rabbi Yaakov Moshe Salmanovitch shlit"a:

Since I was just now at the prayer of the Rav, and we saw what we saw. It is difficult to understand when seeing such a Tzaddik (righteous person); these are truly "visions of G-d"! A Jew who is not here is simply not present. One can see that he is laughing at us all; he is truly doing awesome things. I literally return in Teshuvah (repentance) every time I arrive at the prayer.

But who am I to even speak? However, since the Rav has now taken upon himself the actions of the End of Days—as we see now that the whole world is preparing for Mashiach (the Messiah), and truly at any moment Mashiach is arriving—the Rav has taken upon himself all the terrible sufferings. One can truly see that he is fighting all the time, and these are awesome things.

And one sees what is going on there in the prayer hall; it is not natural. There is no such thing anywhere else! People are in a state of Hischadshus (renewal), receiving such vitality, such renewal, in the matter of Rabbeinu (Rebbe Nachman). Everyone wants to draw closer to Hashem (G-d), may He be blessed. As Reb Noson writes in Likutey Tefillot (Gathered Prayers) regarding the longings for Mashiach... "the likes of which have not been since ancient times." Every night, new people come from all over the country and all over the world. I am also among them; when I arrive, I feel like a new person. When I leave there, it's already something else. But when I am there, I truly feel that I am returning in complete Teshuvah (repentance).

And we know that regarding the Rav, it is now a critical matter. So it is worthwhile for everyone, each person should add a Tikkun HaKlali (The General Rectification), specifically seven times Tikkun HaKlali, and especially to come to the assembly. I also try all the time to pray for the Rav; I know that this is a matter of the Tikkun (rectification) of the world, by our teacher Rabbi Berland in the mission of Rabbeinu (Rebbe Nachman). He took upon himself all the terrible things that must happen in the End of Days.

Whoever sees what is going on in the world—what troubles there are in every home, general troubles, private troubles, what falls, what illnesses, what troubles. And our teacher Rabbi Berland hears all the troubles and knows all the troubles, so certainly we must all unite together. Thank Hashem, there are no disputes; no one disputes anymore, but now there is the matter of the Geulah (Redemption).

Everyone knows that Rabbi Berland is a Tzaddik (righteous person); only now we need to unite so that the Rav will be healthy, healthy, healthy, and live with us, and bring our righteous Mashiach (Messiah) in actual reality, and not to stop praying for even one moment. Even if one can only say the Tikkun HaKlali (The General Rectification) once—and especially those who can say the Tikkun HaKlali 7 times as the Rav said. And yes, to come to the assembly, certainly, certainly, as we have seen until now that the Rav lives only from prayers, already as a fixed rule for 10 years.

Now too, there is no doubt that with Hashem's help there will be great salvations, we will already merit to see our righteous Mashiach, and the Rav will be healthy and whole until our righteous Mashiach and beyond.

We see that our teacher Rabbi Berland has already been in life-threatening danger thousands of times, also in the exile when he was persecuted—we see that the Rav is supernatural; for decades we have seen that the Rav is supernatural, he came to the world to nullify nature. Who am I, but since I have known Rabbi Berland, he always spoke above nature, supernatural. Miracles, miracles, his whole essence is miracles, so he is certainly above nature, of that there is no doubt. So everything depends on the simple prayers that a person should value—his prayers that he prays for the Rav to be healthy and live. Certainly, the Tzaddikim (righteous ones) need our prayers, just as they pray for us, but for themselves, they need the flock. Certainly, it only depends on prayers and not on nature; there is no "natural" with Rabbi Berland, there is no "natural."

We all have a part in the Geulah (Redemption); this is how Hashem wants us all to have a part in the Geulah. As Rabbeinu (Rebbe Nachman) says, "Bring me stones and lime and I will build wonderful buildings." Rabbeinu means that we should bring him our Torah and our prayers, especially prayer. Let everyone pray for Rabbi Berland with 7 times Tikkun HaKlali (The General Rectification) and come to the assembly. This is supernatural; the fact that the Rav goes out is supernatural, and in the merit of our prayers, the Geulah (Redemption) will come and our teacher Rabbi Berland will be healthy, healthy, healthy until Mashiach and beyond.

And we will all merit to greet our righteous Mashiach truly today, today, today, and the assembly will already be with our righteous Mashiach.

Amen
