== The Importance of Spreading Chassidic Teachings == | == The Importance of Spreading Chassidic Teachings == | ||
Although Chassidic teachings are very lofty, there is no concern about spreading them even to simple people. The Alter Rebbe explained this through a parable about a prince who was gravely ill. The only cure required crushing the king's precious crown jewel to create medicine, where even one drop could save the prince's life. Similarly, G-d is willing to have these precious teachings spread widely to heal the spiritual darkness of recent generations. | Although Chassidic teachings are very lofty, there is no concern about spreading them even to simple people.
