וְעַל־כֵּן, אֲפִלּוּ הַמּוֹפְתִים הַנּוֹרָאִים שֶׁרָאִינוּ מֵרַבֵּנוּ ז"ל, אֵין אָנוּ עוֹסְקִים בָּזֶה לְסַפְּרָם. כִּי אֵין זֶה שֶׁבַח אֶצְלוֹ כְּלָל, לְפִי עֹצֶם הַפְלָגַת מַעֲלָתוֹ. רַק סִפַּרְנוּ מַה שֶּׁנּוֹגֵעַ לַעֲבוֹדָתוֹ יִתְבָּרַךְ, לְמַעַן יִתְעוֹרֵר הַמַּשְׂכִּיל הֶחָפֵץ בֶּאֱמֶת.

**Rabbi Nachman's Wisdom, trans. Aryeh Kaplan, Jerusalem. Breslov Research Institute, 1973:**
Therefore, even the fearsome wonders that we saw by the Rebbe are of no concern to us here. According to his high level, these were not remarkable at all. We only seek to relate lessons of devotion, in order that an intelligent reader seeking the truth should be able to derive some inspiration.

כִּי אֵין שׁוּם תֵּרוּץ בָּעוֹלָם, וְכָל אָדָם יָכוֹל לִזְכּוֹת לְמַעֲלוֹת גְּבֹהוֹת, אִם יֵלֵךְ וְיִתְנַהֵג בְּדַרְכֵי רַבֵּנוּ ז"ל, שֶׁמְּבֹאָרִים כָּאן בְּסֵפֶר זֶה.

**Rabbi Nachman's Wisdom, trans. Aryeh Kaplan, Jerusalem. Breslov Research Institute, 1973:**
There are no excuses. Every person can aspire to the highest level, if only he follows the ways of the Rebbe recorded in this volume.

וְהָעִקָּר לִהְיוֹת רָגִיל מְאֹד בִּתְפִלּוֹת וּבַקָּשׁוֹת הַרְבֵּה מְאֹד וּבִפְרָט לְדַבֵּר בֵּינוֹ לְבֵין קוֹנוֹ בַּלָּשׁוֹן שֶׁמְּדַבְּרִים בּוֹ, לְהַרְבּוֹת בְּשִׂיחָה לְפָנָיו יִתְבָּרַךְ לְרַצּוֹתוֹ וּלְפַיְּסוֹ יִתְבָּרַךְ וּלְהִתְחַנֵּן לְפָנָיו שֶׁיְּקָרְבוֹ לַעֲבוֹדָתוֹ בֶּאֱמֶת.

**Rabbi Nachman's Wisdom, trans. Aryeh Kaplan, Jerusalem. Breslov Research Institute, 1973:**
The main thing is prayer. Accustom yourself to beg and plead before God. Speak to Him in any language you understand — this is especially important. Beg Him to open your eyes. Ask Him to help you along the path of devotion. Plead that you be worthy of drawing close to Him.

The little we have written here should be enough for all who seek the truth.
