Description
Rebbe Nachman explained that the Princess in the story is the divine soul in every Jew, which is the "daughter" of the King of the Universe. The soul seeks to escape the "evil king" who holds her captive: this is the evil urge, the animal soul. But the divine soul is weary and faint because of her sins. The sins themselves are the "ten poisonous arrows," corresponding to the ten sefirot of the unholy realm, which gain sway through transgression. In the words of Rebbe Nachman: "Only a very great Tzaddik has the power to enter every place where the soul has fallen and remove all ten arrows from her. In order to heal her, he must be able to discern all ten types of pulse-beat, and he must know all ten kinds of melody, for her main cure is through melody and joy" (Rabbi Nachman's Wisdom #273).
