הרהורי החשבונות–Meditation 1, “All the world”

Posted by matt on 11 September 2010

In its entirety, all the world
is a too-narrow bridge
and the key
is to not be afraid
at all.

(Attributed to Rabbi Nachman of Bratslav)

Hebrew text taken from Kol Haneshama–Prayerbook for the Days of Awe (Elkins Park, PA: The Reconstructionist Press, 1999), p. 48.  Lineation and translation by M. Salomon.  Image: perilous crossing by Tangent~Artifact, here sometimes :)
