Continuing Rebbe Nachman's story of the Lost Princess, we return to a small detail with a big message: why does the Rebbe tell us the viceroy went to lie down in the corner?

The corner, it turns out, is anxiety — two emotions fighting each other, past and future battling over the present. The viceroy finally reaches the palace, tastes the festivities, and then shuts down, fighting the very feeling he spent years searching for — until the lost princess herself touches him and tells him: this is the place of lo tov.

Topics covered:

• The corner as anxiety: when two feelings fight and we freeze instead of listening

• Why we crush the inner voice calling us back — and how to hear it again

• The 70-year sleep: spiritual slumber, checking boxes, and living life on autopilot

• Hayom — Rebbe Nachman's urgency of today: even one minute left in the day still counts

• Why the deepest Gehinnom is busha — the shame of missed opportunities

• Ikkar teshuvah: facing shame and humiliation as the greatest tikkun for ego

• A deep chiddush on relationships: your spouse (or parent, or sibling) as the voice of the lost princess, sounding the alarm when we stop providing physically, emotionally, and spiritually

• The messenger vs. the message: why blaming the other person keeps us the victim

May we let go of ego, face the shame that unlayers it, hear the voice of our own lost princess, and be zoche to see Havayah in everything — and binyan Beis Hamikdash bimheirah b'yameinu, Amen.
