The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Yaakov Klein’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

Okay, fantastic. So, B'ezrat Hashem, we're going to jump back into our journey through Sifrei Sichot Haran B'ezrat Hashem. And I am going to share my screen. So, we can see the sources for today. Um Let's see. Okay. Yeah, hopefully this should be good. Can you ever see the screen at the screen here? >> Yeah. Yeah. >> Okay, amazing. Great. So, let's jump in. We are holding at Sichot Haran 210. And just give me 1 second. Zoom has been giving me issues recently. Sorry about that. Sorry, 1 second. Okay, great. So, let's jump in and we have Sichot Haran Kuf Yud. Where Amar Rebbe Nachman said, "Kol Mashu Hu Tzarich La'asot B'rabim Kashalu Imo Od U'vod." Anything that he had to do in public he found incredibly difficult. And it Tzarich L'Yedah M'sirut Nefesh Mamash Oseh and it required tremendous self-sacrifice to do anything in public. Okay, I think the statistic is true that a person that that people generally fear public speaking more than they fear like death or something like that. Like people would actually rather die than publicly speak. I'm not sure if this was the same thing. I don't know if that's the same Indian. I imagine that obviously as we're going to see by Rebbe Nachman it's much deeper than that. So, it's not necessarily a like a fear of public speaking, but it was incredibly difficult for the Rebbe, really without explanation, to do anything publicly.
