Rabbi Nachman instructed Rabbi Nathan to remove the endorsements from Chassidic leaders who greatly praised him. These endorsements were published in later editions after Rabbi Nachman’s passing.

He [Rabbi Nachman] mentioned a wealthy man whom he knew, and he told him... that it is good to have the sefer in his home, because it will serve as a great protection... and so that his wealth should be sustained.”
