A crowd forms as a Hasidic Jewish man prays fervently at the gravesite of Rabbi Hershele Liska.

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. From the core of his deep faith, he pleads for a miracle of love, hope, and healing for the Hasidic community. 

In the dignity of prayer, the man bows respectfully in front of the ancient tombstone, as if embracing the border between the past and the present. The tomb of Rav Hershel Lisker, Tzvi Hersh Friedman, in the Liska Jewish Cemetery acts as a spiritual portal to the Eternal, where Hasidic prayers meet and rise in faith.Today, thousands of Hasidic Jewish believers visit this sacred site, sensing the presence of Rebbe Tzvi Hersh Friedman's spirit, embracing those who pray for hope and faith. Prayers filled with requests, wishes, and blessings are not just words, but expressions of the heart’s deepest emotions, ascending to the Divine.

Orthodox Jewish communities focus their prayers on seeking blessings for the purity of childhood and for those enduring illness. Serving as a protector of faith and customs, the cemetery unites the reverence of the ages with the heartfelt requests of the present.

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. The guidance of his teacher was instrumental in helping the Kerestir Rebbe's community cling to their traditions and persevere in faith during difficult moments.

In this sacred moment, where the heart resonates in the man's words, the prayer is a deep connection between the past, present and future, carrying the deepest hopes and desires of the community.
