During the summer of 1922, Odesser felt very ill on the 17th of Tamuz and broke the fast. Odesser considered this a serious offense against his Avodas Hashem. His transgression caused him to fall into a severe six day depression. During this time he did not eat or drink and did almost nothing but lay on a bench and pray. On the sixth day of his depression a powerful thought entered Odesser's mind instructing him to approach his bookcase and open a book. Yisroel Ber Odesser opened up a Likutay Halochos Aurach Chaim part 1 and an aged piece of paper fell out of the book. Assuming the paper to be an old bookmark, Odesser ignored it at first but soon realized it was a letter from Rebbe Nachman of Breslov addressed directly to him. | During the summer of 1922, Odesser felt very ill on the 17th of Tamuz and broke the fast.

During the last ten years of his life Rabbi Yisroel Ber Odesser gathered around him a group of followers that eventually became known as the Na Nach movement. Odesser strongly pushed the idea of Hafatza, a term used for distribution activities on the Petek and Rebbe Nachman's books. Many Nanachs dedicate their entire life to Hafatza. Spreading the song Na Nach Nachma Nachman Meuman is considered a very important goal by many Nanachs. | During the last ten years of his life Rabbi Yisroel Ber Odesser gathered around him a group of followers that eventually became known as the Na Nach movement.

The song Na Nach Nachma Nachman Meuman can be found all over the country in the form of stickers, clothing, signs, and controversial Nanach graffiti. Na Nachs will often ride across Israeli cities in large vans covered with the phrase Nach Nachma Nachman Meuman, blasting loud techno music. Most Na Nachs wear large white kipas embroidered with the phrase Nach Nachma Nachman Muman. Nanach Kipas are also their number one selling product. |
Another popular item amongst the group is the Nanach Kemea. A small amulet worn around the neck, the Nanach Kemea contains a copy of the Petek and the song Nach Nachma Nachman Meuman written on a piece of parchment. | Another popular item amongst the group is the Nanach Kemea.
