Overcoming Folly - Kuntres Umaayan A Chasidic Treatise

This is a comprehensive treatise written in the spirit and style of traditional ethical Torah teachings, that touches upon the various challenges one experiences when faced with the reality of material existence—obstacles that stand in the way of achieving true spiritual heights.Written in 1903 by the fifth Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Shalom DovBer Schneersohn, of blessed memory, in response to the challenges of secularism and non-Jewish ideologies that faced Russian Jewry at that time, Overcoming Folly - Kuntres Umaayan looks deeply into the oldest battle—man against his own evil inclination.As in other installments of the Chasidic Heritage Series, introductory remarks, footnotes, and supplements, make this work perfect for either group or individual study.Posner, Zalman I. is the author of 'Overcoming Folly - Kuntres Umaayan A Chasidic Treatise', published 2006 under ISBN 9780826607430 and ISBN 0826607438.
