A touching moment of prayer by a Hasidic Jewish man at Rabbi Hershele Liska’s grave gathers a large audience.

Amid the quiet of Liska's Jewish cemetery, a Hasidic Jewish man bares his soul in prayer at the resting place of Hershel Lisker, Tzvi Hersh Friedman. His sincere prayers rise from a place of devotion, asking for love, hope, and healing to be bestowed upon the Hasidic community. 

With reverent dignity, the man bows before the ancient tombstone, bridging the gap between past and present in his prayer. The special place, the tomb of Rav Hershel Lisker - Tzvi Hersh Friedman in Liska Jewish Cemetery, is a kind of gateway to the Eternal, where hasidic prayers soar and meet in faith.Every year, thousands of Hasidic Jews come to this holy place, feeling the lasting spirit of Rebbe Tzvi Hersh Friedman comforting those who pray for hope and faith. Wishes, blessings, and heartfelt requests. Words in prayer carry the weight of emotions and desires, sent from the heart to the One above.

In their prayers, Orthodox Jewish communities seek blessings for the purity of youth and comfort for those who are suffering from illness. The cemetery serves as a sentinel of faith and tradition, where the honor of centuries past meets the aspirations of today’s seekers.

The Kerestir Rebbe, Yeshaya Steiner, would visit this sacred place periodically to pray and ask for blessings at the grave of his great teacher, Hershel Lisker. In their most challenging times, the Kerestir Rebbe's community relied on the teachings of his mentor to sustain their traditions and strengthen their faith.

In this sacred moment, where the man’s heartfelt words resonate, the prayer creates a profound connection between the past, present, and future, embodying the community’s deepest hopes and aspirations.
