			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Growing up back in the USA, I don&#8217;t recall ever seeing or hearing of Rebbe Nachman or the Nachman M&#8217;Uman graffiti.  Breslov Hasidim were those guys who came around asking for donations and handed out booklets of Breslov teachings.  In Israel, you can&#8217;t go far without running across at least one of the ubiquitous Nachman slogans.</p>
<p>There&#8217;s a great Wiki article that discusses in detail the origins of Bresolver Hasidism <a title="Rebbe Nachman Wiki" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nachman_of_Breslov" target="_blank">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nachman_of_Breslov</a></p>
<p>(Tens of) Thousands of Breslevers and Rebbe Nachman lovers travel yearly to Ukraine to Uman, the burial place of this Tzaddik.  The Breselov Hasidim believe that there&#8217;s some magic in saying three times &#8220;Na, Nach, Nachma, Nachman M&#8217;Uman&#8221; as a verbal amulet for good luck.  They also make sure to spread the landscape with painted graffiti, bumper stickers, and posters with this saying.</p>
<p>I remember one day I was driving in Tel Aviv and saw a hillarious bumper sticker &#8220;Na, Nach, Nachma, Nachman Bialik&#8221;, who was the secular poet and author of the early to mid 1900&#8242;s, and is considered one of the founding &#8220;literary&#8221; founders of the State of Israel.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s one of the often-seen Nachman M&#8217;Uman signs in South Tel Aviv, not too far from the beach.</p>
