Uman Rosh Hashanah: What Is It About? And Why? by Rav Mota Frank is a practical and spiritual guide to understanding the meaning of the annual Rosh Hashanah gathering in Uman and how to make the most of the journey. Written in a direct, personal style, the book explains why Rebbe Nachman of Breslov placed such extraordinary importance on Rosh Hashanah, the significance of the Tikkun HaKlali, and the spiritual purpose of visiting his holy tziyun in Uman. It also offers practical guidance for preparing for the journey, conducting oneself during the days in Uman, maintaining holiness and joy amid the challenges of travel, and bringing the inspiration of Rosh Hashanah back into everyday life. The later sections expand the discussion into timeless Breslov teachings on emunah, bitachon, joy, hisbodedus, positive thought, prayer, and the spiritual meaning hidden within ordinary work and daily life. More than a travel guide, this is an invitation to approach Uman Rosh Hashanah as a journey of renewal, prayer, connection, and hope—and to carry that awakening into the entire year.
