Moshe Moshel the Tzadik is Maleh the tefilah of his chasidim so he is maleh this avoda of Strokas. I think bobov is the only place where Strokas are wore in weekdays.
For me, the most striking thing about this essay is the author's cluelessness in failing to realize that it brings little honor to the memory of the Pnei Menachem to mention that he was a full-on sucker for the pseudoscientific discipline of graphology.
Bar Minon -- Are we to assume then, that you find all psudoscientific fields to be embarrassing? Would that include Chazal's views on magic, mazalos, meta-physics, medicine, astrology, and questionable science? Sichos chayos? Ilanos? palmistry or chachmas hapartzuf? Angels? Ghosts? The mystical? How about miracles? Praying at kivrei tzaddikim? Prayer bichlal? Just wondering where you draw that line. Cuz Rebbes, gedolei Yisroel, mekubalim, and baalei mussar, generally don't share the views of skeptical rationalist secular society. And although I am a skeptic and cynic and a rationalist, like you may be, I allow for religious people to disagree with me...
by Galiciayaner Hungarian Chasidim they used to say, that the acronym of Shabos i,Shtriemel Bemokam Tefilin
ReplyDeleteStrokker bimokom tfilin too in bobov, hence the differing legths of samet.
ReplyDeleteyes, but that's only for the Rebbishe types. What should the עמך do?
ReplyDeleteWondered the same thing. I'm sure some great bobover chuchim could help us with that.
