In Letter 22, the Altarebbe shares a poignant reflection on the overwhelming demands placed upon him by countless seekers of wisdom. Picture a revered sage, besieged by a tide of individuals sharing their troubles—health concerns, matchmaking woes, and financial predicaments. With a heart full of empathy, he confesses his limitations, stating, “I’m not a prophet!” This heartfelt plea underscores a revolutionary approach to Hasidism, where personal responsibility and active engagement in spiritual growth take center stage. Rather than being a mere source of answers, he encourages each person to embark on their own journey of self-discovery and transformation. The Altarebbe’s insights resonate deeply, reminding us that while guidance is valuable, the path to understanding and resolution is uniquely ours to traverse.
