Never underestimate the power of a Rebbe
Get a load of this:
We have here a person who claims for the last 20 years or so to be totally disillusioned with a movement and its leader. He goes as far as "digging up dirt" on all his predecessors, publicizing any little-known facts about them for all to see and read. He criticizes every silly thing he reads about the movement and belittles all their accomplishments.
Yet, on Erev Rosh Hashonoh, where does his Neshomoh pull him? To the Tziyun, to the Ohel, because that's where a Neshomoh goes to cry and plead, especially before the new year.
Yes, he was accepted with open arms and his prayers will be "forwarded" just like the greatest Chossid's, simply because the Tzaddik, the נשמה כללית, intercedes on behalf of EVERYONE, regardless of who you are and what you say.
I think this person is unwell and he will be forgiven wholeheartedly as he does not know what he is doing or what he is saying and writing.
ReplyDeleteitzik, don't be so simplistic. a person is more complicated than the typical " against or pro". it's much more complex than that.
ReplyDeleteTzig,wishful thinking.I am pretty sure that this guy came to the Ohel only to make sure that the Rebbeim stay where they are or to put his kvittel on the tziun of the Rashag (which per se is not such a bad thing).His other reason,as he admits himself, was באקוקן מיידלאך,but alas,they are out of his reach.Which selfrespecting girl / woman wants to get married to a guy who relates to them as "chicks"? BTW, "chick" is etymologically rooted in "shicksa"...
ReplyDeleteAnyway,G'mar chassimeh toiveh to all,even the mentally blocked ones.
Yoshe isn't it sad that 'nor in Lubavitch kehn mehn '
ReplyDeleteבאקוקן מיידלאך?
What does that say about the level of kedusha
"chick", as I understand it, is derived from French "chic" (pronounced "sheek"), meaning beautiful, attractive.
ReplyDelete"shicksa" is a yiddishism from hebrew "sheketz", meaning disgusting.
So the two terms, etymologically, are opposites.
