The Dead Leader of The Na, Nach, Nachman sect of Breslov is not Mashiach!
muman613:
I have not heard of this. And I reject it for the same reason everyone else.
Rabbi Nachman was a great Rabbi and his wisdom has kept many Jews faithful. But it is wrong to suggest that a dead man is Moshiach when it is obvious that today we do not see the messianic signs.
I will investigate this.
Also realize that Breslov is not a singular sect. There are different branches of Breslov and various Rabbis {such as Rabbi Shalom Arush and R. Lazer Brody} lead more sensible branches of Breslov.

I think their claim is not about rabbi Nachman but about the late rabbi Odesser. See discussion above.

Yes I understand that. My point was to reinforce that I believe that Breslov Chassidus has done a lot of good, and a lot of people respect Rabbi Nachmans teachings. I know that Rabbi Nachman was not, nor do most people even Breslovers, believe he was Moshiach.
I am not able to find anything on the internet at this time which suggests there is an organized attempt to recognize this Rabbi Odesser as Moshiach. The Breslover branch referred to as 'NaNaNach' does not speak for the entire Breslev community.
From the wikipage:
--- Quote ---Odesser's publicizing of Na Nach Nachma Nachman Meuman was rejected by mainstream Breslovers for many decades. Around 1984, when he was 95 years old and living in an old age home in Ra'anana, Israel,[1] a group of baalei teshuva (returnees to the Jewish faith) discovered Odesser and were attracted to his teachings. He eventually became their spiritual leader. The name and song, Na Nach Nachma Nachman Meuman was adopted by this subgroup of Breslover Hasidim and has appeared on billboards, bumper stickers, and knitted yarmulkes, as well as in musical compositions of this group (colloquially known as the Na Nachs) ever since.
