[edit] Teachings

The maggid taught human beings should become humble before the Holy One. According to the maggid, the ultimate state of humility is to become nothing (no thing) and realize that everything that is "not you" is an emanation of the Holy One.

Egoless and humble, the maggid gained insight into the human condition of jealousy and envy, and all the evil that ensues from these aberrations that can appear among men, women, children, and nations.

These valuable insights came through prayer, study, and meditation.
