From T16, p6; Mezzricher:

     Reb Schmelke came to the Mezricher Magid on a Monday and theMezricher Magid was very poor.  He said to them, "I don't haveanything to feed you.  But there is some coffee left in my glassfrom Shabbos.  Can I offer you a little sip?  So Reb Pinchas andReb Schmelke have one little sip from that coffee.  Reb Pinchassaid, "Believe me, this one little sip will carry me untilMaschiach is coming.

#MUNKATCHER
          FROM =RHKISLEV
   
	I have to tell you something. The truth is, if the Mohel, theperson who makes the circumcission, is mamash very holy, itdoesn't hurt at all. It does not hurt at all. Only if the Mohel isnot so holy, it hurts a little bit. But the way G-d wanted it, youknow, like the Holy Munkatcher Rebbe. The Munkatcher Rebbe wasmamash the greatest Mohel before the Second World War. Not onlywas he the Mohel, he also was holding the baby. He was the Sandekand the Mohel. And mamash he did it so fast, that the human eyecouldn't follow. You couldn't. Beyond. And the baby never cried.They put a little wine in his mouth, not one bit of crying. Thebaby mamash knew, this is mamash the highest. But you've got to bethe Munkatcher Rebbe. And he said, that any baby that hecircumcised would be holy all his life.

From =AV2 

	You know sometimes... I want to tell you something. (Translated from the Hebrew)  Our holy Rebbe, Reb Shlomo ofRadumpsk who was also a Cohen like Yehoshua, Shmollie andYachad'l, he said that he had to wake up all of Israel.  Suddenlyin the middle of the night, on Friday night, at 4AM, he woke uphis servant and he said, "You have to know, right now there'scoming down a special gift from the heavens, I can bless anyonewho asks with what he asks for!  Do me a favor, wake up       fromKretchmere;tell them to come quick, I want to bless them.  Butlisten to this shame- a shmendrik, a shlimazel, he came back aftertwo hours... Now you come?  "Rebbe, I stood there an hour, Iwanted to wake him...  Why didn't you ask for a bracha?  
	I want to tell you something, if a man needs something fromheaven, he has to bless someone else.  The minute he blessessomeone else you bring down an energy of "Yud kay".  My Father inHeaven doesn't agree to everything I want, But "Yud Kay" on the15th of Av... It's written in a holy book, that the work of theRadomsk was to bless all of Israel.  You know, when you walk intoa Rebbe, what does he do.  He blesses you.  And then you go home. But the Rebbe of Radomsk, escorted each Jew to the end of hisstreet and the Jew would go on his way and the Rebbe would standthere and all the time that he saw him, he would be blessing him. And it is written in "Ohel Shlomo" (About the generations of theRadomsker) that when you see how the Radomsker looks at a Jew, he

The Redonske Rebbe (Reb Shlomo, Redonske)

One of the greatest Rebbes in the world before World War II -- theRedonske Rebbe, one of the holiest masters in Redonsk, a city onthe [Polish side of the ] border of Germany -- after the FirstWorld War, Poland was so poor that a lot of them moved to Germany,to Berlin.  And he was afraid that a lot of them would stopkeeping Shabbos.  So he said to them, ________ go to Germany underone condition -- that I become a partner in 10% of your business. I promise you you'll get rich -- the the most unbelievable thinghappended; all those people who were his partners become multimulti-millionaires.  It sounds like a joke.  Do you know that theRedonske Rebbe owned half of Berlin in apartment houses?  Do youknow what he did with his money?  He had a Yeshiva of 30,000children.  And he, with his own money, with the money he made fromthose apartment houses, supported 30,000 kids.  And they weremamash, his children, he supported them, he took care of them ...And the saddest thing is, that from all those 30,000 chldren,there are only five left.

But I don't want to tell you the sad thing, I just want you toknow that when he and his son came to Auchwitz, they changed thewhole camp, because they were so filled with life, and joy.  Whenpeople came home at night they were beaten, and wounded, and sadand they [the Rebbe and his son] would say, 'Listen, this is notthe way -- you're helping them [the Nazis], right?  They want youto be sad, they want you to be broken.  So you're doing everythingthey want you to do.  Don't you have a little characer?  Let's dowhat they don't want us to do.  They least thing is, they don't usto be happy, right?'

All night long, they were teaching and saying Torahs, and the nextday, when a Nazi beat up a Jew, they [the other prisoners] wouldsay to him, 'You remmember what the Rebbe said last night'.  Itwould give them strength.  And sad enough, for four weeks, whilethey were there, I heard also from people who were there -- it'sunbelievable, especially the Shabbos -- it was like paradise.  Butwhen the Germans saw that they had taken over the camp with joy,they took the Rebbe out, and his son, and shot them.

Just now {1982} they {{which publishing house??}} are reprintinghis teachings.  The Redonske Rebbe, he was also called Reb ShlomoRedonske.

REB HERSHELE #RIMANOVER                                            From B7pp1--

	Reb Hershele Rimanover was the son of a tailor.  ...After theRopchitzer passed away, Chaim Sanza...was a rebbe with hundreds,thousands of followers, but once or twice a year he was going forShabbos to Rebe Hershele Rimanover. 
	 Reb Yosef Shaul, the Chief Rabbi of Lemberg was a greatscholar and a real holy man, but a real mitnogged.  Once Reb YosefShaul decided against a widow in a Bet Din, and Reb HersheleRimanover prevailed upon him to convene another council of rabbisto reconsider the verdict.  The council realize that the judgementagainst the widow was a mistake.  As soon as Reb Yosef Shaul sawthat he had been wrong, he was only too happy to admit it, and toadmit that he had underestimated Reb Herschele.  He went to seeReb Hershele and asked him, 'I and the other rabbis...studied thiscase for weeks.  You just saw the verdict and you knew we werewrong.  How come you are so fast.  So Reb Hershele says to him:  Iwant you to know that the Torah, G-d's word, is very sweet.  WhenI looked at the verdict, the judgement...it was sour...I knew itwasn't possible.
----------------------------------------------------------------
FROM =W-1

      I want you to know, there is a beautiful story.  It's a longstory, but Reb Hershele Rimanover's first wife was nebuch verysick.  It was very heartbreaking.  So anyway after that, one day awoman comes to him and says, "Rebbe, I want you to know I'mlooking for a shidduch".  And he says to her, "Don't  fall off thechair.  Just talk to me straight." 
	 You have to realize, that when Reb Hershele got married,let's say he was sixteen.  Then when he was twenty one, he becamea Rebbe.  Maybe at this point, he was twenty five.  And the womanwho came to him was maybe twenty five.  She says, "I have noparents, and I'm looking for a shidduch.  So bless me to findone."  So Reb Hershele says to her, "Listen, I want you to answerme very honestly.  Would you consider marrying me?"  So she says,"Please don't make such jokes with me, because I'm very sensitive. Just bless me I should find a shidduch.  I'm not dreaming of theRebbe Reb Hershele to be my husband."
	So he said, "I'll tell you.  Obviously I have to explainmyself.  You are from that village?"  She says, "Yes".  He says,"Your father was Reb Moishele?"  She says,  "Yes".  He says, "Doyou remember a little boy Hershele, a tailor, who would bringalways the pants of your ten brothers when they were torn?"  Herewe have to stop the story for a second.  Reb Hershele Rimanoverwas the son of a tailor.  His father passed away very young, so hegrew up by his uncle.  Listen to this.  Until he was Bar Mitzvah,he didn't know anything, but his heart was burning up for G-d.  Soafter his Bar Mitzvah, he decided to run away to Rimanov, so hecould become a chassid.  So this was when he was still in thatshtetele. 
	 So this Yiddele had ten sons and four daughters, and everyFriday some of the pants were torn from his children.  So thisHershele, later Reb Hershele Rimanover, every Friday afternoon,would fix pants.  So he says, "Do you remember a little boy,Hershele, would bring your brother's torn pants before Shabbos?" She said, "Yes".  He said, "Do you remember I had no parents, andI walked into the house, and here I saw fourteen children sittingaround the table Friday afternoon, and your father was teachingyou the Portion of the Week?  All the fourteen children?  And itwas so special.  So I always prayed every Friday, `Please G-d, letme marry one of those four girls!" 
	 So the story is like this, which is unbelievable.  You knowhow Reb Hershele married her?  She was obviously his real soulmate.  He told his Shamasel, "Please don't tell anybody that weare to get married.  But I want you to drive to a certain village,and there in the Beit Medrash you will see ten shleppers.  Putthem on the wagon, and bring them here, and we will make awedding."  And he told the Chassidim, that anyone that comes tothe wedding is playing with his life.  Obviously it was a veryhigh wedding.

The heilege rebbe Reb Hershel of Riminov says, that all Yom Kippurlong, so to speak, G-d is talking to all the Yidden together.

         
--------------------------------------------------------------
from =W-AA&r

	Everybody knows the Heiliger Reb Hirshele Riminover, who wasthe greatest pupil of Reb Mendele Riminover.  He was so holy andso hidden, that he was the shamasel.  He would put wood in theoven, he would make his bed, bring him food.  So the way-outChassidim knew that he is the greatest in the world.  But thestraight ones..!  And, sadly enough, the son of Reb Mendele alsowas straight, and that's why he didn't become a Rebbe after him. He also was convinced that Rebbe Hirshele is not completely there. 	So Reb Hirshele got married, (without telling you longstories), and the wedding was finished after 2 o 'clock.  One ofthe functions of Reb Hirshele was that he would wake up at 4 o'clock, and he would take a broom, and go and sweep the floor ofthe Beit Medrash.  So that morning after the wedding, RebHirshele, 4 o'clock is back.  
	So the son of Reb Mendele, (his name was Reb Yossele), knockson his fathers door, and he says, "If you wanted to have a proofthat your greatest pupil, Reb Hirshel, is not normal, you have itright now.  He got married last night.  2 o'clock the wedding wasfinished, and 4 o'clock he's back to sweep the floor.  He's notnormal, right?"  
	So Reb Mendele says, "Thank G-d he came to sweep the floor,because I was so afraid I would not be able to pray today.  Don'tyou know when he sweeps the floor, that he paves the way for allthe prayers to reach heaven?"  
	Chevra, I want you to know it's a beautiful story.  Thisstory took place maybe 160 years ago.  
	About 80 years ago, the heiliger Reb Chatzkele Shinover, theson of the holy Sanzer went to Pishtian.  It's in Hungary, andit's a beautiful summer resort.  A lot of Rebbes went there.  Hecame there, and he walked into the Beit Medrash, and it was sodirty and so filthy.  He says to the people, "Aren't you ashamed? This is a Synagogue, and it's just so dirty.  Can somebody comeand clean it a little bit?" 
	The next morning, Reb Chatzkele goes to shul early in themorning, and he sees a little Yiddelele is there sweeping thefloor.  So he says to him, "You know it's really beautiful, thatyou got up early in the morning to sweep the floor."  
	He says, "I'll tell you the story.  When I was a little boy,I heard the story of Reb Hirshele Riminover on his wedding day,waking up early to sweep the floors."  So I thought, okay I'm notReb Hirshele Riminover, and I don't know how to make the way forthe prayers to reach heaven, but I know how to sweep the floors. So I came."  
	You know sometimes, when you do something without knowingwhat you are doing, and you are just doing it for G-d, that's thedeepest thing there is.  So Reb Chatzkele looked at him and hesay's, "I'll tell you something.  If you would know where yoursweeping the floors reached this morning, you wouldn't be able totake it.  You reached the highest place in the world."  He says,"I want you to know", he says, "I know you are married for 15years and you don't have children yet.  And just because you aresweeping the floors, I bless you to have children."  Anyway, youknow, I want you to know,

#RIZHENER
HH33F  From B6p2:

	In Rizhen at one time the Holy Rizhener's wife was sick, avery holy Rebbitzin.  The Rizhener walked around sad.  Well, hewan't really sad, but he waas a little bid sad.  So he went to theBais Midrash, and the Chassidim got up and one said, "I'm givingher two days of my life.'  Another one gave on day, another onemaybe gave a year.  They put it all down on a piece of paper,signed.  Mamash, she got well.  Ten minutes later she was out ofbed.  But it was real, the holy Rizhener!

Brit Milah of Micha-El Elchanan July 7th, 1992 Jerusalem 
                                  7th of Tamuz Tav Shin Nun Bet

  	There's a Torah from the Heilage Rizhiner.  There's a shila(question) in the Gemora, it should never happen to anybody, chasV'shalom, when the son of somebody dies when the father is stillalive.  So then the grandfather dies later, how does the grandsonof this person inherit his grandfather.  Does it have to go viathe father.  The Gemora says that so to speak the father inheritsin the grave his father and then his son inherits from his father. OK, let's say it straight, I'm inheriting from my grandfather. The Gemora says,       the words themselves are heartbreaking andbeautiful.  The Gemora says, a person can say I'm coming with thepower of my grandfather.  OK, I mean this is clear prophecy. TheHeilage Rizhiner says, there will be a generation, I guess it'sour generation, that children, sadly enough, inherit nothing fromtheir parents.  So what's their connection to Yiddishkeit?  Hesays there will be a whole generation and they will say,     "I'mcoming in the name of my grandfather."  So this Baruch Hashem is ababala, as much as Yehoshua and Emuna are a gevaldt, but I want tobless the baby that you should always say,      (I'm coming in thename of my grandfather.) I'm looking around in the room here, andI see that 95% of us are
	Then there's another Torah from the Rizhiner.  The Rizhinersays why isn't Mashiach coming the whole time?  So he says, youwill say that in the coming generations there will be biggertsaddikim.  He says, no I don't think so.  But he said like this. In the time of the Bais HaMikdash Mashiach couldn't come because aJew really didn't have a choice but to be a Jew.  Imagine in theBais HaMikdash, a Yiddele will take a Mercedes and drive aroundYerushalayim on a Shabbos.  You won't come to the next corner,right.  So in the time of the Bais HaMikdash, he had to keepShabbos, right.  In the time that we lived in ghettos, we came outfrom the ghettos, so a person was not so frum but he was a littlebit of an outcast.  You know on the inside.  I just rememberedthat the Rizhiner said it 200 years ago.  He said there's a timecoming that a person can eat on Yom Kippur and he won't beashamed.  Not only that, he'll be a Jewish leader.  He'll be thetop Jew.  Ah, but a Yiddele that is keeping Shabbos then, ah,that'll be a Mashiach Yid.  So he says, Mashiach can only come bychoice               There was never a generation that we have somuch choice, so much choice!  

You know I had the privilege once to sit on the plane with theRebbetsin of the Heilage Reb Chaim Meir'l, the Heilage Rizhnitsand everybody knows, she was the grandaughter of the Heilage   ? You know in Tchernoble, so much segulas... The one time I sat nextto her, she was in an aisle seat and I was on an aisle seat.  OnEL AL, going to Yerushalayim.  So, she said she has a headache. She had a gabai and the gabai was taking care of her, they bringher two aspirins.  I looked at my watch, for 40 minutes she said"segulas" over the aspirins.  She was holding it and she wasknocking over one "segula" after the other.  I told myself, justfrom all those segulas, the headache is gone already.  Anyway, shewas famous for never getting angry.  You know, Tchernoble, you areworking hard.  You  don't wake up one morning   and you are notangry.  It takes alot of work.  She was mamash, you know, byChassidim there's an expression, "Ois gi'obat haYid",  the workthrough Jew.  She was famous for not getting angry.  One day, on acertain Shabbos, suddenly on Friday, a thousand more people showedup than usually. So everything went over in the kitchen, up anddown, they didn't know what to do with themselves,  Do you takevolunteers, so Lukshin and Mazel offered his services.  What doesLukshin and Mazel do?  He doesn't help, he destroys everything. He comes into the kitchen, before you know it, he gives a wrongpush, and all the dishes and all the plates fell down andeverything was broken.  So the chassidim ran into the kitchenfast.  They wanted to see how the Rebbetsin was handling it.  TheRebbetsin never gets angry.  So the Rebbetsin came into thekitchen, and she saw what happened.  She said to the chassidim,you know something, to get me angry takes more than a few brokendishes.

So the Holy Tzanzer looks at him like a little bit longand he says OK I'll tell you something:   Here in town there's arich man, a very big miser, but I'm sure you'll get through tohim, go to him and ask him for a thousand rubles but then comeback and tell me if you got it.  OK he goes to this absolutebiggest miser in the world and he comes back and says to theTzanzer you know I got the thousand rubles.  The Tzanzer says OKyou got already the thousand rubles, now let's talk honest.  Youdon't even have 12 children, you're not married, right.  So yourmother-in-law isn't sick aand your mother isn't sick the wholethink is a fake and you have money in the bank.  You're just athief you know a professional.  He says yes.  He says how did youknow.  He says I'll tell you, because this rich man whenever Iasked him to give me some money for someone who really needs it hecan't give it to me.  But for you he had no trouble giving. Because if it's a fake, nobody has trouble.
    Such a deep story.  It's an unbelievable story, you now.  Fora fake, for something stupid, you can always get money,l you canalways get all the help in the world.  Like you tell a dirty joke,everybody's quiet you know.  You want to say something real, it'snebuch - - real opposition.

From JW13, p11:

	When I was 7 years old I had the privilege of hearing theShavler Rav, one of the beggest geonim in the world.  He said tomy father, [illustrating the meeting of Boaz and Ruth], imaginetht a big Rosh yeshiva is walking down the street.  Suddenly onthe other side of the street there is a very beautiful girlstanding?  Will he stop and ask, who is this girl?
	Boaz is coming to his field, with all his chassidim -- Boazwas the Rebbe.  And he asks, 'Who is she?'.  The Midrash says, hesaw the Schechina on her face.  Where would Meshiach be if Boazhadn't stopped?
	The Shavler Rav said to my father, `With all the RoshYeshivas together, we don't have one Boaz.'  He says, 'I don'tknow anybody who would have the guts to stop, and say 'who careswhat they [[the "Snias Patrol"]] think.'
	Do you know what Meshiach is all about?  'Az Azus d'Kdusha',I don't care what you think.  I love you, but ...if I kow this isright, I'm doing it, [regardless of what you think].  You knowwhere the strength is coming from?  This is YUD VAV, the deepestTorah in the world.

		I want to sing a story L'Kavod Emunala, Yehoshua and thechildren.  Everybody knows the Heilage Reb Shalom Shachna, son ofthe Angel, son of the Malach, nebech his father passed away whenhe was young. When he was 14, he got married.  The shadchan wasReb Shlomo Karliner, and on the way to the Chupah, they passed byBerditchev, to be Shabbos in Berditchev.  So everybody knows theHeilage Berditchiver was the Neshama of Rabbi Akiva when hedavened, it was fire.  Reb Shalom Shachna stood still, barelymoved with his lips, you didn't see anything.  And you know RebShalom Shachna was dressed like a prince, you know Reb ShalomShachna.  He had like a golden shawl.  And the whole time he wasdavining, he was playing with his shawl.  And his lips barelymoved, the Chassidim were mamash disgusted.  You know, they know a Rebbe davens- fire.  He's a Rebbala, 14 years old?  But Rebbe LeviYitschak Berditchever waited for him, for Shimone Esrei. It's notso simple.  He gives him kavod.  He's the Mezritcher Magid'seinicle (grandson).  But there's nothing to it.  Anyway theChassidim knew that he is mamash nothing.  
 	So Sunday afternoon, the Heilage Reb Shlomo Karliner takesReb Shalom Shachna and they are leaving Berditchev.  And theHeilage Berditchever says, I want to walk with you to theoutskirts of the city.  And the most unbelievable thing happened. The Heilage Berditchever, the Holy of Holiest, danced backward. He mamash danced backward from his house, until the end of thecity.  Not to be believed.  The Chassidim thought this is too  much, you know.  Obviously, the Rebbe doesn't see who he is,better tell him.  So Rebbe Levi Yitschak gevaldt, after he dancedso many streets backward, they said, "Rebbe, we don't want to hurtyour feelings, but don't you think you over-did it a little bit... He  doesn't look like much."
	So here I want you to join me, the Heilage Berditchever, theHeilage Reb Levi Yitschak ben Sarah Sasha, this is what he said,"You think I danced alone?  Did you really think I danced alone? I saw Eliyahu HaNavi dancing.  Eliyahu HaTishbi was dancingbackwards, so I had to join him."  So gevaldt, gevaldt, "EliyahuHaNavi, Eliyahu HaTishbi, Eliyahu HaGiladi Bimhera Yavo Aleinu." 
  	I want to bless Yehoshua and Emunala and all the people whohave children, Baruch Hashem, me also and all of us.  And thosewho don't have children yet, should have them soon.  Eliyahushould dance backwards.  Wherever our children are going, heshould dance backward before them.

REBBE REB #SHMELKE
FROM =MY.AK

This is a Torah from the Holy Rebbe Reb Shmelke.  The Rebbe RebShmelke says, exile is that today is the same like yesterday.  Andtomorrow will be the same like today.  Unexciting.  Nothinghappens.  You know what a marriage is, mamash not exile, that youblow your mind two million times a second that you are married. That each time you look at your wife, at your husband, you say, Icannot believe that this is my husband.  I cannot believe that mywife is so beautiful. Master of the World, how do I deserve this? Children in exile, when you look at your children and you tellthem, unless you have good marks... What an exile.  Mamash we allbless you, you should never ever ever ever for one split second,put each other in exile.  Don't ever put your children in exile. No minimum and no maximum.  Not too much and not too little. 

----------------------------------------------------------------
< =chesh

		I have to tell you something about Reb Shmelkie, it's agood story.  The Rebbe Reb Shmelkie, he was learning in hisyeshiva, and he always put spices in front of him.  So the roomwas smelling so good.  Everybody thought it was smelling so goodfrom the spices.  Then the Heilage Lubliner one time went behindthe spices, [and took them away.  And it still smelled so good. So everybody knew it was the Rebbe who smelled so good and he justput the spices there to cover up.]
	Remember the Rebbe  Reb Shmelkie's mother and those twobrothers.  The mother would say, "I have two sons, One doesn't say"Kriyat Shema l'mitah", (the prayer said upon going to sleep) andone doesn't bentch (say the prayer after a meal).  The one thatdoesn't bentch because he never eats, and the other one whodoesn't say "Kriyat Shema al haMitah", because he doesn't sleep. And this is a story that I heard from the Klausenberger.  TheKlausenberger told the story that the Haflaoh and Reb Shmelkiewere together and you know, Reb Shmelkie didn't sleep.  And theHaflaoh was learning, learning, learning, and he said, "Listenbrother, I'm at the end.  I don't know how you do it, but I'm atthe end."  He goes into the next room, he gets the blanket, and acushion, and he lies down on the floor.  And the Rebbe Shmelkiebegins to cry.  He says, "Oy vey, I have a brother, a liar.  Hesays he doesn't have koach anymore, but you had the koach to getthe cushion and blanket...."  Gevaldt..
  	You know the famous story...Rebbe Reb Berish'le was lookingfor a Rebbe.  He went to all the Rebbes, and then finally he heard that Reb Shlomole Kashanever is coming for Shabbos to Oshpitsin. He made himself a sign.  There was in Oshpitsin a Yiddele, atrager, a porter, a very strong Yiddele.  And his thing was, hewould always  hear Chatskala say to her, "Can I carry yourpotatoes?   Ten kilo patatoes."  He would say to her, "Do youthink there'll be some potatoes left, l'kavod Shabbos?  From tenkilos, l'kavod Shabbos.  (there must be something left)  So mamashhe took the potatoes and began to sing.  (Everyone singing,L'kavod Shabbos, L'Kavod Shabbos")        
  	So Sunday he would ask, Monday he would ask, Wednesday,Thursday, Friday, he didn't ask, but obviously it was for Shabbos. Nebech, people are not so deep, they treated him like an idiot.  You know, Chatskala, L'kavod Shabbos.  
	So Reb Berishel said, so I'll make myself a sign.  When RebShlomola comes, if he gives Chatskala l'kavod Shabbos specialkavod, then Reb Shlomola is my Rebbe.  If he passes him by likeeverybody else, he's not my Rebbe.  So Friday night, everybodyalready said Good Shabbos, and two people didn't say Good Shabbos. Reb Berishel didn't say Good Shabbos, because he was waiting forChatzkale l'kavod Shabbos.  Chatzkal l'kavod Shabbos was nebech sohumble, he was sure the Rebbe won't even shake his hand.  Sosuddenly the Rebbe said to him, "OH!  Good Shabbos!"  So he says,"I lined up right behind him, because I wanted to go after him." So Chazkala l'kavod Shabbos, gives his hand to the Rebbe.  And RebShlomola took Chatzkala's hand between his two hands and said,"What's your name?"  He said, "Chatzkala".  And then the Rebbesaid, "Don't you have another name?  What's your other name?"  SoChatzkala told him.  "The people call me Chatzkala l'kavodShabbos".  "Ah", the Rebbe said, "Chatzkala l'kavod Shabbos'  Whata name!"  He said, "Chatzkala, how I envy you, your name.  What aname! What are you thinking about when you say 'l'kavod Shabbos'? 	So he said,  "Rebbe, I don't know so much,  but I know thebeginning and I know the end.  I know the Ribbono Shel Olam tookus out of Egypt and gave us the Torah.  We built the Bais Ha-Mikdash and then the Bais HaMikdash was destroyed.  And I know theend.  We'll go back to Israel and we'll build it again.  Soeverything I do is l'kavod Shabbos in preparation for that greatday at the end, the great Shabbos.  If Yidden would know thateveything that happened to them is l'kavod Shabbos, then theMeshiach would be so close.  
	So Reb Berishel said that one day after Reb ShlomolaKashanover left, Chatzkala disappeared.  Reb Shlomola passed awayand Reb Berishel became the Rebbe.  He said, many years later, Icome to a shtetela very far away, and I hear mamash,"l'kavodShabbos, l'kavod Shabbos".  

 	Another story:  The story is, the Heilige Stretiner was somuch not eating in anybody's house.  He once came to the HeilageReb Mendele Kossaver and he didn't even eat in his house.  He onlyate from his own shochet.  Not that he said G-d forbid it's notkosher, but this was his thing.  One  day the Chassidim  weretravelling  with the Rebbe, in a little shtedela and suddenly theysee a butcher shop.  It says also, to eat here or to take out.  Sothe Rebbe says, "We are going to eat here."  They thought, theRebbe must have gotten crazy!!!  He doesn't eat by Reb MendeleKossaver and he eats here, and nobody knows who it is.  They walkin and this real like flirty woman comes out and she beginsrolling her eyes at the rebbe.  "I'm so glad to see you."  Thechassidim, they are mamash ashamed.  By this woman, the Rebbewants to eat!?!  And she says, "Rebbe how are you?  How'severything."  The Rebbe mamash talks to her with so much derecherets (respect)      like the biggest rebbe in the world.  Thechassidim realize the Rebbe must be having a nervous breakdown orsomething.  And the Rebbe says, "Mamash, could we please eatsomething here."  "For sure, you know for you and your followers." 	Anyway, the greatest miracle happened.  There was a big dogsitting under the table, so the chassidim right away are feedingthe dog.  You know it's not kosher, obviously.  Then the dooropens and her husband comes in.  Long hair, beads, who knows what. He has a little knife in his hand and he's playing with it.  Andthe woman says to the Rebbe, "This is my husband, the shochet."  Imean this is 100% not kosher, you don't even have to be a frumer   (       ) Yid.  And with this knife, he's going....mamash themoment he walked in, the Rebbe gets up, and he says to him, withso much derech ertez, "Could I see you for a minute?"  He says,"Rabbi, I'm very busy, but for you i'll make time."  The Rebbetalks to him for two minutes in a room, the Rebbe comes out andhis eyes are red with tears.  Mamash, red with tears.  And theRebbe bentches, they leave and the shochet and his wife are goingto the door, and they mamash wave to the Rebbe and the Rebbe wavesback.                                                             	They travel for two hours and the Rebbe says, "OK, now let'sput our act together.  How many of you ate?  So one says, "Youknow, Rebbe, my stomach is not so good."  The other one sayssomething else; everybody says something.....He said to them, "Youknow what this knife is?  It's the knife of Avraham Avinu.  And inevery generation it goes to the next generation and the head ofthe Lamid Vav Tsaddikim is in charge of this knife.  	I wantedso much to this.  So he said to me, the only one to touch thisknife is Eliyahu HaNavi.  I was crying so much, begging so much. "OK, I'll let you see it."  So on the knife it says, "Ma'achletshel Avraham Avinu".  (The knife of Avraham Avinu).  So all hischassidim went back to the village to eat from the shchita withthat knife.  But there was no butcher shop, no people, nothing atall....

#SHIPSKER 
(from =TAY)               

So the grandson of the Holy Ishbitser writes, when did he receivethe ordination from his rebbe, the Holy Shipsker.  So he says,when he was eighteen years old, he travelled with the HolyShipsker, and one night they came to an inn.  And there was noMezuza.  So he said to the Ishbitser who was eighteen years old,can you please sit by the door, because G0d's Name is written onyour face, like the Mezuza.  So I want to bless you, not only thatyou should love each other, and not only you should be eac other'shouse, you should also be each other's Mezuza, to guard eachother.  Ah, so deep.

REB SHIMON #SKERNOVITCHER
FROM =ALEX

	I want to share with you two stories.  Because motzai shabbatyou gotta tell stories from the tzaddikim.  
	One of the biggest rebbes before the second world war was thehelega Reb Shimon Skernovitcher.  And you know, it's so heartbreaking.  Everybody talks about the six million, which is cuteand sweet.  Nobody really tells our young people who were the sixmillion!  Who were they?  Unbelievable people!  So many rebbes. So many tzaddikim.  
Singing:  (whistling)    
	There was a rebbe, Shimon Skernovitcher.  He was an anacle ofReb Mendal Vorker.  And before he became a rebbe he was asuccessful business man.  He kept on being a business man evenafter he became a rebbe.  But then somehow he stopped being abusinessman.  I just want to share with you what kind of an AharonhaCohen he was.  In Warsaw before the war, Skernovitch is a suberbof Warsaw.  Can you imagine, here Reb Shimon Skernovitcher hasthousands of Hasidim, thousands, mamash thousands.  And imagineyou'll come to ask him for tzadaka, he'll give it to you but thatdoesn`t make him into a rebbe.  I want to tell you something. Every Thursday night Reb Shimon Skernovitcher disappeared.  Nobodyknew where he was,  One time the Hasidim made it their business tosneak up behind him.  Do you know, he walked around in the poorestneighborhoods in Warsaw and he didn't give out tzadaka.  He didn'twalk up to a poor Yiddle and say, "Hey, I'll give you ten rubles." You know the way he did it?  He'd walk up to a poor Yiddle and hesays, "I want you to know something.  Today I made so much money,I'm on the level that I can give you a loan.  Would you like totake a loan from me?"  Can you imagine how holy that is?  He'dwalk around and give out loans all Thursday night.  I want you toknow something.  In the deepest , deepest depths you know what itmeans to receive a loan from Reb Shimon Skernovitcher?  The rebbebelieves that I'll be rich again.  I'll be able to pay him backagain.  The rebbe said it's a loan.  If the rebbe said it, it'snot a lie.  
	 I want you to know, there is a Vorker Torah.  How are yousupposed to give a poor man tzadaka?  A poor man comes.  He'sbroken.  "Mamash I'm at the end.  I need ten dollars."  So youtake out ten dollars and you give it to him.  That's cute andsweet, right?  G-d needs more than that.  G-d didn't take us toMount Sinai just to tell us to give him ten dollars.  For that Hecould have met us on a street corner to tell us.  Got to be morethan that.  You know what the helega Vorker says?  I have to tellthe Yiddle, "Listen to me brother.  Today I give you ten rubles. Ipromise you tomorrow you'll be so rich you'll give a hundred.  Ipromise you."  And I want you to know at that moment when I give aYid ten dollars, I have rebbisha kochot.  At that moment, I am arebbe.  At that moment I can declare in heaven, "Master of theWorld, I want this Yiddela to be so rich tomorrow that he can givea hundred rubles."  It's not enough to give him a few rubles.  Youhave to give him back his neshama, give him back his selfconfidence.  Got to give him back his pride.  
                                      
	So, this is the story.  You know, nebach, in Poland beforethe war, a lot of times there were Yidden, one Jew was living in awhole city all by himself.  So the story is that a Hasidisha Yidcomes to Reb Shimon Skernovitch and says, "Rebbe, I'm living allalone in a village.  I'm the only Jew.  And naturally, there'snothing I can do, my children play with non-Jewish kids"  And hesays, "You know, my daughter is engaged to a non-Jewish boy.  Butit's not only that she's engaged to a non-Jewish boy, this boy isa drunkard.  He beats her up all the time.  And she has so littleself-confidence that she lets him.  Not only he beats her up, butshe's converting for him.  And she is in a convent already.  Intwo weeks is the wedding."  He says, "Rebbe, I'm at the end."  Youknow, Shimon Skernovitcher has thousands of Hasidim.  He couldcall up Yankala, Chatzkala, Avramala and say, "Listen, try to gether out."  No problem.  The helega Rebbe Shimon Skernovitcher,rebbe of thousands, thousands, thousands... went to that villagewhere that convent is.  This is a true story because I heard it inAmshinov.  Everybody knows that Amshinov is a nephew of theSkernovitcher.  Listen to this!  The helege Skernovitcher wentwith one more Hasid and they bribed a little non-Jewish boy.  Gavehim a few rubles.  "Please smuggle this letter into the conventwhen you go on Sunday there to pray.  But make sure it gets tothis girl."  I want you to know they were sitting on the streetcorner for three and a half days.  They wrote in the letter:  Weare sitting here on the street corner waiting for you.  Do youknow?  She came on the fourth night.  The rebbe and the Hasid werethere too.  If one would go for a minute the other would bewaiting there.  The fourth night the girl showed up.  Can youimagine?  What a rebbe!  What an Aharon haCohen.  They asked thegirl, "What made you come?"  She says, "Because it was clear to meif the rebbe says he's waiting for me on a street corner, he'llnever leave till I come."  Gevalt, what a rebbe!  What a rebbe! I'm singing here    .  You know friends, gevalt weneed our tzadikim back again.  We need the Skernovitcher back.  Weneed all the big rebbes, all the pushta Yidden.
Singing:    .

#SOCATCHOVER [= SUKKACHOVER ]

     The Holy Socatchover was the son-in-law of the Kotzker Rebbe,and he was like one of the greatest geniuses maybe in the lastthousand years or maybe in the history of the Jewish people.  Justto give you a taste, you know he was such a genius like when hewas two years old he was lying in a crib, his father would wake2:00 and learn with his students, you kow really, and his fatherwas a great genius, and obviously the students he had were alsogreat geniuses, and a lot of times his father would ask aquestion, and the little boy in the crib would wake up and listento the learning, hou know, just listen to the learning, and hisfather would ask a question and he would wait until somebodyanswers, if nobody answers he would say 'Ay, Father, come here, Iwant to tell you the answer', and he would tell him the answer. One night his father was learning and nobody gave the answer, sothe little boy in the crib began yelling and says Father don'twaste your time on those kids, they just don't know anything.  Ok,I mean this is facts it was like one of the greatest greatestminds in the world.  Anyhway when he was Bar Mitzvah he became theson-in-law of the Kotzker Rebbe, and when he was 14 he was verysick, so his father walked into the Kotzker Rebbe and asked him topray for his son-in-law.  Pray for my son.  And he started saying,Rebbe, pray for my son; you know there is nobody in the world whohas learned so much, he is 14 years old and he knows the wholeTorah.  So the Kotzker Rebbe says," Ach, you call that learning?" You know whatever he said good about him, he knocked it off.  Andhe tried his best to convince this father-in-law that his son isso special, and 
.p
its his own son in law.  He couldn't undersand what it means. Anyway the greatest miracle happened, after a few days,  he wasok.  So the father  says to the son, you know I don't understandyour father-in-law, you know with all due respect, I'm going inthere to ask him to pray for you, and I'm praising you, that youreally deserve that great miracles should happen to you fromheaven because you learn so much and your father-in-law the wholetime saying, 'That's called learning?  That's called knowing?  Heknocks you off like mad.  The Sochatchover says,"Gevalt is myfather-in-law holy, gevalt is he deep.  Don't you understand hesays I came to this world in order to learn and the way you weretelling that I learned, so I learned everything I have to know, Ican leave the world already.  So my father-in-law was yelling thewhole time " What's this called learning?  That's called knowing? He didn't do anything yet, you know."  It's a gevalt story - no? -A gevalt story.  You see what it is, imagine a person comes to youand he says you know I'm perfect.  It's a bad scene you betterwrite your own eulogy, because tomorrow morning you might beleaving, and I wouldn't know what to say  after you, right, G-dforbid.  This world -- there is something in us which is notperfect.

---------------------------------------------------------------
#SOCOTEVER                   

	And something I heard from the Socotever...he wrote a letterto the fatehr of one of his pupils -- please take your son home. So he came and asked what happened -- Isn't my son learning --He's a great genius! -- So why don't you want him to say?  Heanswers:  I've never seen him cry when he learns."

REB MENDELE #VORKER
< =miamijw2

     I want to tell you this story.  I'll make it very fast.  I'msure some of you know this story, but it's a good story to tell. One of the holiest holiest, the absolute holy of holiest masters,the Heilige Reb Mendele Vorker.  He was called the silent rebbe,he was a rebbe for thirty years, he never spoke.  A few times hespoke.  But his teaching was not in words.  Unbelievable.  Therewere times when he was sitting with the Hasidim for 14 or 18hours, didn't say one word, and again you know let's say I'll besitting here at the table 14 hours, this one has to go to thebathroom, this one has to cough, this one is hungry, it's nothing. When he was sitting at the table 14 hours, everybody who was inthat room was out of his body, didn't have to go to the bathroom,didn't have to cough, was just out.  OK, so one of his biggestHasidim was the Heilige Reb Bereshel Bialer.  Reb Bereshel Bialerwas at that time a rich man, later he was also, even when he was arebbe, you know he was a merchant, a very wealthy man.  And theRabbi of the city was called Reb Nehemiah.  And so Reb Bereshelwas saying to Reb Nehemiah, you know when are you coming to myHoly Master the Vorker.  He would say, I heard your Rebbe doesn'tknow anything, doesn't know how to learn, he doesn't say anything. Because the world would say you know why he doesn't say anything,because he has nothing to say, right.  Sitting there doingnothing, stupid, I'm not going to waste my time on that.
.p
So he says to him, Ok forget it.  But you know, I have every RoshHodesh every new month, you're supposed to have a feastele, whydon't you come and celebrate with me Rosh Hodesh.  You know inVorke, it's a very strong thing you know, to drink orange juice,you don't have to be very high but in order to know how to drinkwhisky and not to be drunk you know you've got to be a master overyour senses, right?  Anyway, so in Vorke you drink a lot, but ifyou're drunk, you're out.  The moment they see you don't know howto handle it, forget it.  Ok, Reb Nehemiah was invited to thefeast of Rosh Hodesh, so Reb Bereshel takes two water glasses andsays, here  Nehemiah, here drink.  Nebuch, you know, he thought hewas the greatest scholar in the world, but a little whiskey cantake off your head, how holy are you?  So he's drinking twoglasses of whiskey and he's out.  He's lying on the table snoring. And when he woke up the next morning nobody was there, so broken. Because he realized, obviously they did somethign very deep and Iwasn't part of it, here I think I'm this great scholar and I can'teven handle a glass of whiskey.  So he came back four weeks laterto the feast again, and this time he decided, I will pretend thatI am drinking but I am not, I will also pretend that I'm drunk andI'll lie on the table...{et} I want to see what they're doing. Ok, again he comes in and Reb Bereshel says, Oh Reb Nehemiah'leI'm so glad to see you, here's a glass of whiskey.  And he thoughtthat Reb Bereshel doesn't see, he pours it our under the table,puts it down empty.  Reb Bereshel gives him another glass, hepours it out again and then he lies down, pretends, he's drunk, hesees Reb Nehemiah is out.  And by the table all water-carriers andshoemakers, he says to one of them bring me the Sefer Atz Haim. Atz Haim is one of the deepest --  like deep is not the world,beyond deep, one of the deepest kabalistic books.  He ways let'slearn together.  And this Reb Nehamiah thought of himself, being agreat kabalist and a great scholar, and while he was listening tothem he realized that he doesn't konw anything.  So broken, hereall of those watercarriers, I am the Rabbi in town and I think I'mthe greatest scholar the greatest Kabalist, and Idon't even knowthat those Vorker Hasidim, those water carriers, they are giants,I am a monkey, I'm a cockroach.  Ok then he heard everybodyleaving and the only one left was Reb Bereshel, so Reb Bereshelwalks up to him and says, Nehemiah'le I know you're not asleep, Iwatched you, but just tell me one ting, did you hear what we werelearning?  Did you understand what we were learning?  He says,I'll tell you the truth, I didn't, I'm so downhearted
.p
here I thought I'm a great kabalist and your watercarriers knowmore than I do.  So Reb Bereshel says, listen to me brother, thosewatercarriers, Vorker Hasidim, I'm not taking about you now, heways, you don't know anything.  Those watercarriers are greatkabalists, besides that they're great giants in learning, the onlything is they don't blow their tops like you, and they don't telleveryone what they know, but they're great kabbalists, but yet Iwant you to know, without making myself big, when it comes to me,they don't know anything.  But I want you to know one thing, I amonly a great scholar till I come to my Holy Rebbe, when I standbehind his door I know that I don't know anything.  He saysNehemiahle, come, let's go.  So that Friday Reb Nehemiahle wentwith Reb Bereshel to the holy Vorker, and the Holy Vorkerobviously he doesn't say anything, he is sitting at his chair, andlet's say every Friday 2000  people come for Shabbos, and RebMendele is just looking at you, giving you his hand, looking atyou, that's it.  So after everything was over, Reb Bereshel wentto look for Reb Nehemiahle, where he is, he saw him sitting andlearning in a corner, he says OK, tell me the truth, how was itwhen he held your hand.  He says, I want you to know, I alwaysthought I believe in G-d , but it wasn't real, when the holyVorker held my hand, I want you to know that sudddenly every nerve, every inch in my body, suddenly it was revealed to me, I feltit, I knew there is one G-d.   There really is one G-d.

#VISHNITZ HASIDIM
from =shjw18.ein

Some Chassidim say Mizmor l'David, the 23rd Psalm, `The LORD is myShepherd, once.  Lubavitchers say it once.  In Bobov and Sans theysay it 3 times, but in Vishnitz they say the passage `Though Iwalk through the shadow of death I shall fear no evil' maybe ahundred times.  Each time from the 3 times they say the Psalm theysay this one passage maybe 100 times.  Endless.  I don't know,maybe not 100, maybe 50.  I stopped counting after a while when Iwas there.  The Rebbe says it and the Chassidim answer back,mamash {Heb. intensative} endlessly.  After you hear it a hundredtimes you are really getting so strong on it.

THE #YID HAKODESH
FROM =RHKISELV

	You know, the Yid HaKodesh, one of the highest Rebbes, had noteeth. So they asked him, "What happened to your teeth?" And hewas not sick. He was six-foot-four. Just to give you a taste, onenight he was attacked by twenty five Cossacks. One man alone. Andall twenty five Cossacks had to be taken to the hospital. He wasstrong like a giant, a giant she`b`giants. And he passed away, heleft this world when he was forty eight years old. And everybodyknows that he didn't leave this world because he was sick. He leftthe world because, if you remember, that same year the Seer ofLublin also passed away. So the Yid HaKodesh, nebuch, died onSuccos. He wanted to prevent the dying of the Holy Lubliner. 
     Awesome. He saw mamash, this year the Heilige Rebbe takesoff. So he wanted to turn over heaven and earth. But obviously itdidn't help. Mamash, he said before he left the world, "I've gotto do something for my Rebbe, the Holy Lubliner."
	So he passed away Succos. And then, on Tisha B'av, when theLubliner passed away, they realized what the Yid HaKodesh hadsaid, "I have to do something for my Rebbe, that's why I'mleaving."
	Anyway, the Yid HaKodesh said, one time he dovened and hesaid, "G-d, please let me taste what Avraham Avinu felt, when  hediscovered G-d for the first time." He said, "I began doveningShmone Esrei and I said `Boruch Ato Hashem', and my teeth fellout." Mamash there is a G-d.
	Can you imagine if you don't know there is one G-d, andsuddenly you discover there is one G-d. We don't even know whatthat is. Because for us there is always one G-d. But imagine ifyou were brought up like Avraham Avinu in a pagan society, andthen suddenly you discover, after forty eight years, there's gottabe something in this world. Awesome, right.

REBBE REB ZUSHA

from esh3289

(Rebbe Reb Zusha -- the heavenly court will ask me only, why wereyou not more like your (true) self).
[paraphrase from memory, sa]

----------------------------------------------------------------
from s-ei-z7

Children are not lazy.  Rebbe Reb Zusha says he learned fivethings from a baby:  (1) [it is] always busy, (2) when it wantssomething it cries (3) [[points 3--5 not given in ms. Z7.  Cf.tape or alternate source of teaching.]] The most horrible thing inthe world is if you teach your chilren to be idle....I never sawmy father do nothing.  If my father had two minutes, he waslearning.

----------------------------------------------------------------
from ELUL	(1987)

You remember the deepest Torah.  I shared it with you a few times. The Seer of Lublin, the Holy Seer of Lublin was the greatest pupilof Rebbe EliMelech.  And he was really his successor.  And one dayhe said to the Seer of Lublin, I taught you alot of things.  Butthere is one thing I cannot teach you.  You have to go to my holybrother, the Rebbe, Reb Zusha and he will teach you.  So he comesto the Rebbe Reb Zusha, and the Heilage Rebbe Reb Zusha says tothe Holy Seer of Lublin.  He says, Yaakov Yitschak.  Tell me onething.   When you want a person to become better, how do you reachthem?  He says, it's very simple, I point out to them everythingthey do wrong.  I tell them you see you did this, you're notpermitted.  You did this, oy, it's even more forbidden.  You didthis, oy vey, it's terrible.  You better do tshuvah.  And thenI'll tell you, tell me your lifestory.  Your life story, OY VEY! What an ugly story, gevaldt, WOW!  You better repent.  The RebbeReb Zusha says, you know what you are doing with them?  You pushthem down in a garbage pail.  You take away their last ounce ofself confidence.  You take away their last ounce of selfconfidence.  The Heilage Choze said to the Rebbe Reb Zusha,  "Howare you doing it?"  "Ah", he says, "I do it differently.  I don'ttell anything bad to them.  I'm just praying so hard, I'm openinggates of light for them.  I open gates of light for them.  Andwhen a great light of heaven is shining into them, they won't dowrong by themselves.  You don't have to struggle."

	To prepare this selection I just ran a simple search(PSearch) for (rebbe or rav) on the input material; then notedSource, and sorted by name of Rebbe.  
	I then augmented that by skimming through whatever hard-copyI had in the house at the time; those xeroxes were only a verysmall (duplicate) fraction of the hardcopy collection of R. JoshuaWitt, and does not include duplicate materials from othercollections.  Nor have I yet had an opportunity to co-ordinatewith whoever in the USA is working with R. Shlomo material,including the collection in his New York home.  

	This material was input, alphabetic by name of Rebbe (whichin most cases is not the personal nor private name, but rather isthe name of the community in which the Rebbe taught.)  It wasinput in EinsteinWriter 8.x, where the file-size limit of 65Krequired division into 2 docs.

	In some cases I drew, not on disc input nor on hardcopytranscriptions, but on my notes from talks given by R. Shlomoteachings at Yakar.  I have not checked those notes against theTapes, which are available from Yakar.  Hence those excerpts maybe attributed to R. Shlomo only with that qualification.
