[Music] welcome back to rest of campus regarding a big dilemma in breslav practice regarding doing heath body dude there is this term of doing what's called an hour of it voda doushite body dude and in breslav you have about different views about how it should be there are some who hold that it has to be exactly at least 60 minutes at least and you have to kill yourself to do the outreach body dude which makes it sound like that anything less than an hour 60 minutes of each body dude of talking to a Shem is not counted it's not it's like for example in Rebbe Nachman stick when Akali the tenth Psalms that he registered as being known as the general remedy you say one chapter you're saying Psalms you say two chapters you're saying two chapters of Psalms three four five six seven eight nine only once you say the full ten chapters is it called a general remedy so you have people that attitude that it's fine and dandy that you're talking to a sham and everything but unless you do 60 minutes every day so it's not considered valid a devotee dude and there's the other camp in restive that maintains if you start a person off with a difficulty of one hour lead body dude and yes the struggle to maintain it there will come a time well he even drop that hour with water dude and be left with nothing at all rather
