In 1796 the Alter Rebbe, founder of Chabad Chassidism published the "Tanya", which was to become known as the 'written Torah of Chassidism', revolutionizing Jewish thought forever.
In 1984, the Lubavitcher Rebbe began a campaign to print an edition of Tanya in every city in the world! His directive was based on a teaching of the Baal Shem Tov that Moshiach would come when "the wellsprings" of Chassidic teachings would spread worldwide. Printing the Tanya in every location would transform that place into a source and bastion of these beautiful teachings.
The Rebbe's emissaries dispersed throughout the globe took up the Rebbe's call and traveled from town to town in their region, printing Tanyas in every stop along the way. Since the Rebbe's call, more then 4,000 editions of Tanya have been published throughout the world, from large bustling cities to small rural communities.
At this time, the Town of Oyster Bay Chabad would like to announce that we too will be printing our very own Tanya's in honor of 200 year anniversary of the printing of the first Tanya, thanks to Temuri and Maya Nanikashvilli, gracious donors.
