What does it mean that 'your wellsprings should spread outward' (Yafutzu maayanosecha chutza)?
"Your wellsprings should spread outward" (Yafutzu maayanosecha chutza) refers to the dissemination of Chassidus [1, 2]. This includes activities such as spreading Chabad books [5]. The Rebbe emphasizes that one's personal matters can be affected by their eagerness in this area [1].
