What made Reb Uri different? Are not all Hasidic masters different from one another? Yes, but Reb Uri was truly different in his fervor and fire. Hence the name “Seraph,” the fiery angel. He went in search of a master only to reject many before choosing Reb Shloimele of Karlin. From him he learned to pray. To his exceptional life of prayer, Reb Uri added simplicity and poverty, the fear of God and the love of God. Further, the greatness and holiness of Rabbi Uri of Strelisk was that he knew how to reconcile his love of God and his love for his fellow human beings, remaining faithful to both but never at the expense of either God or his creature.
