The Baal Shem Tov, or Besht —  the founder of Chasidism — 
met the soul of the Messiah during an ascent to heaven. 
The Besht asked him, "When will the Master come?" 
The Messiah answered, "When your wellsprings break forth to the outside!" 
(from a letter written by the Besht to his brother-in-law about one of his soul ascents)

    "Chasidic-Egalitarian"?
    I guess it's not an oxymoron anymore.
    —David Roskies, JTS professor of Yiddish Literature,
    after the first meeting of the Chasidic Egalitarian minyan in 1995

       The real issue of our age is how we make a graceful and ethical descent from the energy peak. ~ David Holmgren

    Bring Chasidic Nusach to your Community

    NeoHasid.org is dedicated to bringing the wellsprings of Chasidut as far as the internet can carry them–an open door to Chasidic songs and traditions (aka "Chasidus"), for everyone: women and men, religious or secular, however observant, connected to a Jewish community or not. Neohasid.org also features eco-Torah, egalitarian liturgies, and cultural reports on the new Chasidim. The vision for NeoHasid is egalitarian: everyone is invited to create and use these resources, and to share them with their communities. Connect here with the spirit and song of Chasidut and with the new Chasidus.

    Participate: Add a song or teaching!
