VaisfichePublished by: KehosAbout this BookA Chasidic discourse by Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson the Lubavitcher RebbeThe Path to Selflessness is a discourse delivered by the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson, of blessed memory, on the eve of the fast of the tenth of Teves 5738(1977).Beginning with the words   Yehuda Atah , the discourse examines the blessing which Yaakov blessed his fourth son, Yehuda, as compared to the blessings he gave his first three sons, Reuven, Shimon and Levi. Yaakov`s sons embody distinctive forms of divine service, which correspond to distinct sections of the prayers of   Shema   and the   Amidah.   Using these distinctions, the discourse further derives lessons about the bond between the individual Jewish soul and G-d.
