I was impressed that considering his weddings, 21 kislev seudas, etc., how simple he travelled. He had one bochur with him, and upon exiting the mikva in the morning, he asked a buddy of mine to drive him to the cheder for shachris. He seemed to be playing it down, no grand showings. Truth be said, it is not expensive at all. 3 tickets ($300 each), a eltere hungarian loans him a condo, and that's about it for costs.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13084425.post-71118330888997659442009-02-04T00:23:00.000-05:002009-02-04T00:23:00.000-05:00I hear from Satmar yeshiva talmidim that their reb...I hear from Satmar yeshiva talmidim that their rebbe Reb Aharon - sits and learns in teh yeshiva gedola building all day.<BR/><BR/>How many rebbes - even those with far smaller flocks - do this?<BR/><BR/>I for one fargin him his vacation - where again all he does is sit and learn.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13084425.post-22399944923152614222009-02-03T20:14:00.000-05:002009-02-03T20:14:00.000-05:00MillhouseThe Rebbe Reshab was a very frail person ...Millhouse<BR/>The Rebbe Reshab was a very frail person from young age, and a big part of his deep Chasidic thesis he wrote out of town, so he was a unique case.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13084425.post-70319539822261479512009-02-03T20:11:00.000-05:002009-02-03T20:11:00.000-05:00SchneurIf I am not mistaking there are photos of R...Schneur<BR/>If I am not mistaking there are photos of Reb Elchonon in Dacha circulating.

But that's not a normal way. Even lehavdil the US president needs time off; that's why there's a Camp David for the weekends, and why they spend so much time at their private homes or those of their friends. And so we saw will almost all rebbes, <I>including our own nesi'im</I>, up to and including the Frierdiker Rebbe.<BR/><BR/>The Rebbe Maharash used to go to Paris and Mentone. The Rebbe Nishmoso Eden would travel all over Europe, <I>and</I> go on datche with his family every summer. As we all know, one summer instead of datche they went to Yalta. The Frierdiger Rebbe also, when he lived in Europe, would travel to Marienbad and other spas for his health. BH our Rebbe had a very strong constitution and didn't feel the need for relaxation; that's not a derech for everyone. Maybe R Elchonon was the same, I don't know. (The Rebbe also only slept two hours a day; that was enough for him, but he certainly didn't recommend it for everyone, and as far as I know all the previous rebbes required the normal amount of sleep.)<BR/><BR/>LkwdGuy, boruch Hashem we are very far away from times when those halochos apply, and may Hashem keep us far away. There is no famine, nobody is starving. Yidden have problems with parnossoh, but even an oriman today is far better off than a gvir 150 years ago.<BR/><BR/>"Chosid" and "Satmar chosid" are right.

It probably doesn't cost these people much more to stay there than to stay at home. And with this weather, I'd also rather be in a warm place, so why not? The ikar that you seem to be complaining of is that they can take the time off, but that comes with the territory of being self-employed. If you worked for yourself you too could take a few weeks off whenever you liked, especially if you were able to work part-time over there, as I imagine these rebbes do.
