	Shlomo also taught us the secret of borken hearts.  The heartgrows klipot (a shell).  It is only when we break our hearts thatthe shell becomes a vessel.  Even if our vessel is filled withtears, perhpas the holy beggars we meet might see the incredibledepth and beauty of their souls reflected in those tears."

DS sends a teaching:  "Gut Yom Tov from the Rebbe"
Apparently a short excerpt (though Mordechai Pearlman asks, whichrather precise phrasing, "was that tora from the rebbe or justfrom your idea of what the rebbe would have said"); source notgiven.  I think it was posted to Website.         
   
NOTED MATERIALS:

Mordechai Pearlman (=MP) refers to 2 non-commerical kumsitz tapes,circulated amongst the Toronto chevre:  "One is a collecdtion ofPurim Kumsitz's from 1965, 1970, and 1971 at Yale University.   The other is a Tornot Kumsitz with yeshivishe chevere, also aPurim time kumsitz and it's called "Ishbitz".  The niggunim aremamish, nisht mazik tzu zain, and leiv Hashomayim.  Gevald!"

DS notes that L'Koved Reb Shlomo Remembarance Journal, acollection of reminiscences and tributes by family and friends,with photographs (some not previously published) is available formthe shul; the Kol Chevre newsletter is avilable from the ShlomoCarlebach Foundation, POB 2543, Jerusalem 91025, and "Friends,Listen to this"  is availabel form ritchdov@brachot.jct.ac.il

FlameWar I:  Kol Isha
MP argues that R. Shlomo Carlebach must be understood within thecontext of orthodoxy, and within the context of the rabbinictraditions of the Carlebach family. 

A correspondent notes that 'Gut Purim Pinchas' is a story of theKozhnitzer Maggid. 

MP suggests that in the adjacent "world", R. Shlomo is probably"standing next to Reb Yitzchok of Vorki, trying to dry up all thetears with his melodies."
{Comment (sa):  I suppose this is a reference to the story, "Oceanof Tears" published on the commerical cassette, 'Ocean of Tears'.}

QUOTED REMARK:
MP remarks:  He said in Shvat 5749 [ in Poland, to Polish Jews ]"It is 100% clear to me and to you, if the Goyim will ever beginto love us, it will only ve when you [are ] a yid with a beard andyarmulke.  There are no two ways about it."   MP adds [and thisshould help locate the teaching to which MP refers ] "He spokethen about his story of the hailige Bal Shem Tov and with itbegged those peple in Poland to become holy thieves."

MP adds:  "Here's another quote from that tape:  He said that thesituation regarding how attatched the Jews there are to theGoyische way of life was so bad that {MP's quote starts here:}`there is nobody to talk to.  If I talk to a reform rabbi, he'llright away, he'll jump on it.  He likes the Goyim in the firstplace more than the Yidden, right?  We're talking about ourYid[den]."        

{INVENTORY REFERENCE:  Add:  Mordechai Pearlman, lately ofToronto, and presently (ca. 2/98) of eretz Israel, has, somewhere,a tape of a R. Shlomo Carlebach teaching in Poland, Shvat 5749 [1989 ].  It may have been one of those transcribed by EW. }

MISCELLANEOUS:

3) shabbos ends. "  

NOTED APPEARANCES:
Justin Lewis, of Woodsworth College in Toronto<justin_lewis@stubbs.woodsworth.utoronto.ca> 
recalls R. Shlomo's appearance at the Jewish Storytelling Festivalin 1992.
He notes that Neila Carlebach appears on a radio program called"Shalom", on CHIN-FM (100.7 FM) "every week for about 10 minutesto tell a story or give over some learning.  He then gives what isapparently his transcription of a tape of one such story as retoldby Neila Carlebach.  But he notes that he's not sure if --apparently he's not clear what was said on the tape -- the Rebbein question if R. Chaim Sanzer, or the Seer of Lublin.]
{EVALUATION (sa): It is a story I hadn't heard before.  Very wellwritten.  Quite publishable, I would say.  If those were NeilaCarlebach's words, she seems to be well-qualified as astoryteller.  If Justin Lewis did some editting, he's good. }

  "Rebbe Reb Shlomo's genius is in keeping all boundaries fluid sothat souls can grow as Hashem leads them, some to greaterobservance some to deeper and higher spirituality.  All his dayshe refused the confing defintions:  he was and wasn't Habad,Bobov, Bratzlav, Greenwich Village, Modiin, Haight-Ashbury/HLP,what have you.  But the Living G_d that was his committment andmaking the path accessible to Hashem for all people.  As long ashe was in his body he managed to escape being fenced in. L'ma'anHashem don't you who love him do it now.  And remember that 'Abbayassqad bratta', he poured so much at the end into N'shamah.  Helpher not hinder her in assuming her place.  Even those who wouldnot wish to be subjected to Qol Isha can help her reach others. To Titgod'du is a stronger LAV than the equation of QolIsha=Erva."

Also hopes to assemble "an archive of his teachings in general." Requests copies of all available teachings; in the hope that thiswill be the first of many such projects; seems to offer to pay forcosts of repro.

Hershy Worch, writing from Austailia, notes that R. ShlomoCarlebach spoke in Boston ( DOES NOT SAY WHERE -- ASK HIM -- maybethe Workingmen's Circle, on 1732 Beacon St. on Pesach Sheni "twoyears ago" (so that would ca. spring 1994).  R. Nehemia Pollen(still at his shul in Everett, MAssachusetts, I assume) was alsothere.   Hershy Worch  notes that he can recall little of theteaching, but tries to reconstruct it, in his own words.
David Staloff notes having seen a tape of a R. Shlomo teaching onPesach Sheni -- I'm not clear if this was a tape of the Bostonteaching, or of a teaching "at the yeshiva in nyc".  He thenoffers a paraphrase, I suppose of parts Hershy Worch left out.

MISCELLANEOUS ADMIN:
Justin Lewis becomes the first on this list to fall for the GoodTimes Virus Hoax.  I am, to date, the most recent. 
The "signature" of this hoax seems to be a deliberately awkward,sphaghetti-western-style  invoking of minor deities:  the FCC,"the military", "the Army National Guard" "IBM". 
In this variant, PKZIP300.* is cited a Trojan Horse.
Now of course a text E-mail cannot contain a virus, but anAttatchment can.  I don't know if Unzipping a *.ZIP file couldactivate a virus; certainly running a *.EXE file can; and ZIP'dfiles are usually packaged as *.EXE files. 
A correspondent at Bentley college notes:  "the good-times virusis a hoax and now a part of the internet folklore.  Messages aboutit have been circulating in the internet community for over ayear.  There's no danger."  

RECOLLECTED SAYINGS:
Mordechai Pearlman having defended R. Shlomo's reputation asstrictly frum, Art Waskow defends his reputation as "involved inJewish renewal" [ 'Jewish renewal' presupposing that Judaism hadbeen growing old ].  Suggests that an orthodox rabbi is a 1dimensional man. 
Recounts that R. Shlomo was once criticized by an orthodox rabbifor naming the HLP such; and replied, 'If I had called it BnaiIsrael, would anyone have come?'.
Recalls appearing with R. Shlomo at a radical "Freedom Sederagainst the Pharohs of Wall Street" in Battery Park , NYC, Pesach1970.  A lovely annecdote.
Recalls R. Shlomo appearing in February 1971 at the HanukathaBayit of Fabrengen, in the face of a Commentary attack on ArtWaskow et al.
"Shlomo invited about a dozen Fabrangeners, along with of coursethe shaggy hippies frm the HLP, to his wedding, on an eqwualfooting with his Hassidic pals and his Misnagdik mishpachah..." He asked Art Waskow to chant one of the sheva brochos. 
[Apparently the date of wedding was between 1971 and 1973. ]
Notes that R.Shlomo appeared at a 1973 Fabrengen anti-Vietnam-WarTu b'Shvat festival.  Notes that during the Vietnam War "much ofofficial Jewry was keeping its mouth shut about the war for fearof offending Nixon and thereby underming support for Israel".
[ I gather that it was Nixon, over Kissinger's objections, whorushed through the emergency re-supply airlift in the Yom KippurWar. "What do we know."] 
Notes that R. Shlomo then said he was sorry he hadn't been able toinvite the entire Fabrengen to his wedding; and gave a gettogether for same in Art Waskow's living room.

DS recalls "how often shlomo taught about the limit of 'hesed'without 'gvurah'. [Eg, Cf. input Yakar lectures. -- sa]  He adds"Once after Reb Shlo0mo encounteed a later day hippie community(the Spinners) I recall him remarking, 'If only they had thevessels for all that light!'  (Not long thereafter, thisparticular community disbanded.)"
Notes that R. Shlomo 'talked about the prophetic holiness (ruachhaKodesh) associated with the use of names'

DS indicates that he does not know if R. Shlomo ever addressed thequestion of whether women can sit on a Bet Din, or can rule onkashrut.
Adds:  "All of reb slomo's smichas reflected on what r shlomo sawas the eduational priorites of an entire nation.  At the sametime, each smicha reflected on the talent of the particularindividual it was written for.  Each docuemnt I have seen is anindividually crafted masterpiece of creativity."
DS notes that a group was formed, under the Carlebach Foundation Igather, called "the rabbinic committee of the foundation", toidentify the people to whom R. Shlomo gave smicha, "and ofcollecting and eventually categorizing each smicha, the goal beingdevelopment of a kind of mobile educational system."

A correspondent notes that in 1994 R. Shlomo appeared jointly withR. Zalman on a number of occasions. 

DS posts a Tu b'Av Wedding Torah from the Rebbe, HLP 5733 (1973). Apparently from Kehilat Jacob newsletter [ I say that because theteaching concludes 'Love, Shlomo', which I think is the signaturein all Kehillat Jacob newsletter teachings. 

DS posts "Wedding blessings from the Rebbe".  Source not stated;maybe the same.

The Schaefers send in 2 teachings, incorporating some teachings ofR. Shlomo Carlebach.             

It includes a quote from R. Shlomo: 
"The whole world only rejoices after G_d answers them. 
But us yidden, the children of Avrohom, Yitzhak and Yaacove, 
of the four holy mothers, 
for us it is so different.  
We know, we feel, that G_d is helping us, 
that Gd listens to our prayers. 
I trust you master of the world. 
I know you forgive me tnat you will give me a good year. 
You will help me to fix everything.
Even before you help me I'm already rejoicing. 
I know that you will help me to become a new person,
a better person."
{Comment (sa):  I assumed this was a verbatim quote; but itdoesn't sound like R. Shlomo's style.  But apparently it's a quotefrom the Torah Times tape, which was a studio recordng.
As for this breaking R.'s Shlomo's teachings into quaisi-poeticlines:  well, I've always said, punctuation is dealer's choice;and it does seem to bring out the rather biblical cadence, reallythe poetry, of his oral teachings.                

The Ritchies, from Bayit Vegan,  send in a teaching:  "Love,Shema, & the birth of joy"  I hadn't quite realized it, but 'TheJerusalem Open Yeshiva' is their project.

Alifa Sadya comments on Deuteronomy 16:20

DS offers a teaching, based on teachings by R. Shlomo Carlebach.
There are some very interesting points here, and one may expect aresponsible paraphrase from DS, but one would like to see theoriginal. 

Justin Lewis remarks:  "I just heard in a class from Chaya Adlerthat Shlomo said that it's forbidden to repeat Torah withoutadding something of your own to it."                  
{Comment (sa):  Apparently Chaya Adler is a rather reliable sourceof recollected teachings. }

Meir Fund says, a bit too pat:  "Most sapsects of Shlomo which werthe most valuable survived, whereas the controversal aspects diedwith him."

R. Shlomo Carlebach passed on on 20 October, 1994.
Notes that at the Carlebach shul students "continue to meet at theCarlebach Yeshiva ... for learning via videotapes [of R. ShlomoCarlebach teachings ]
{Comment (sa):  Videotapes are usually editted; audio tapes arenot.  That is, editting of a videotape means cutting outsections.}

Nacham Futterman, now of MOnsey, NY, notes a large number ofpersons following R. Shlomo.  He remarks, 'I htink people arebeginning to have a ddepr understandng of him as a Torah giant."

Additional article, by Jon Kalish, notes that the Carlebach's gotthe tape of a recording with Neshama from the recording studio for$9000, in apparently payment of a $5000 fee for recording.
Recordings were completed 4 Oct 1994; includes 1 Holocaust story.
Apparently Neshama Carlebach is age 22 as of about 10/96.  One cansometimes date tapes of R. Shlomo Carlebach teachings by hisreference to her age.

<julewis@JTSA.EDU> 14 Nov 96
"Shlomo Carlebach, as steeped in the traditions of the Sages asanyone in our time, expressed his support for Woman at the Wall."
{I have written to the writer asking for amplification,clarification, etc. of this remark; I think he is no longer atthis address.   The force of the remark turns on the unspecifiedsense of the term 'support'.  I do not recall an explicitreference to Women at the Wall in any teachings which I have asinput.  -- sa}

DS posts 'Sanzer Story', from HBG, from HLP 6 Shvat 5732

Art Waskow posts a teaching by himself on: "Peace, MLKing [ie,Martin Luther King, Jr. ] & Shabbat Bo 
Remarks:  "Dr. King is sometimes thought to be only the prophet ofAfrican-American liberation, or perhaps of an end to racism, buthe was more broadly the prophet of the Beloved Community in whichpoverty and war as well as racism will end -- the prophet ofnonviolence and peacemaking iwthin socity and between societies."

Leah Hochbaum <hochbaum@netvision.net.il> writes, on 16 Jan 97 (3days after 13 Jan 97, which was when Netanyahu dumbfounded manywho had voted for him by pushing through an agreement to yieldIsraeli control over all but the Jewish enclave in Hebron, whichsits at the bottom of a bowl of surrounding hills ]
R' Shlomo compared giving away parts of Eretz Yisrael to onetalking their diamond wedding ring and throwing it away."
On 23 Jan she writes:  "After I posted this message, I mentioned[it] to my husband, who has smicha from R. Shlomo and was alwayslike a sponge to his toras...He corrected me in saying that whatR' Shlomo said was that giving away Eretz Yisrael is like givingyour wedding ring to a poor person.   In other words [and I thinkthis is Leah Hochbaum's paraphrase] -- you want to do the mitzvaof tzedaka -- but not by giving your wedding ring away!  So too,we want to bring peace to Eretz Yisrael, but there is a way andthere is a way!"
{Comment (sa):  That last sentence comes very close to a teachingthat I have input, from Yakar, the first seminar, about peace --the parable of the yid who finds a gold coin, or a diamond, Iforget which, by an outhouse.}
Notes that she is transcribing a videotape she has of R' Shlomodiscussing the whole issue of the `peace process'. "I have beenworking on it diligently and I hope to release the transcriptionto the list ASAP.  
She adds, a bit rheorically I think, 'Though I was zoche to hearR' Shlomo cry brokenhearted over the whole issue numeroustimes...'
Still, as Leah Hochbaum notes, R. Shlomo did make many appearancesin Hebron, --  and it's a very small community, so she may wellhave heard non-public remarks by him.
She remarks:  "R' Shlomo always taught us to feel the pain ofanother Jew 'imo anochi b'tzara'.

Mordechai Pearlman discusses Redwoods with Art Waskow.   Theyshould ask Ronnie Levin about the neo-Caananite implications. 

A correspondent remarks that " Rabbi Arthur Waskow has explainedthat what dayenu means is that one must celebrate each steop onthe raod to freedom as if it were enough, then start out on thenext step."

MP had suggested that the attraction of kabalah to those whoreject the rest of Torah sh'b'al Peh, is that it seems"magnificent, ethereal, sweet and musical and is capable ofdrawing the masses"                     

Moment magazine, always a magazine of no great moment, on thelevel, as I recall, of The McDonalds Jerusalem Report, is stillbeing published.

DS posts 'Reb Shlomo on the Politics of Israel', apparentlypreviously published in the Happy Minyan newsletter.
It's a short excerpt.  I think it was posted to Website as'Politics'.

Moish Geller announces the start of Yeshiva Bat Ayin , in GushEtzion, Judea, headed by Reb Natan Greenberg.

Leah Hochbaum responds to Beck-Berman's Hebron article.  (Whichwas soberly written, but entirely political, not with religiouscontent.   Her response, which points to a right-wing politicalconclusion, is couched almost entirely in traditional religiousterms


Mordechai Pearlman quotes R. Shlomo from Shabbos in Shomayim: "For one page of the g'moro I would give my life a thousandtimes."   

Libby Bottero remarks:  "Reb Shlomo was devoted to serving theHoly ONE by helping to make peace btwen people, in Israel,  and inthe world -- and that he opened his heart and soul with love andcompassion to all kinds of people, seeing all created in the imageof G_d."

Art Waskow notes he knew R. Shlomo for almost 25 years, and thatR. Shlomo would appear at any Jewish group, regardless of itstheologic or political orientation. 

Mordechai Pearlman writes of his cousin, R. Shlomo Carlebach,regarding his attitude toward Reform and Conservative Judaism:  "Ibelieve that alhtough he had boundless love for these Jews, he haddisdain for these foreign ideologies and I heard him expresshimself thusly on occasion."                                       In a following posting, he adds, commenting on a remark that R.Shlomo "was always a man/Jew/Rabbi of Peace"
"But he was also a man who expressed deep love for the faith ofhis ancestors and also expressed deep pain for the destruction ofthat faith and also stood up for the truth.  I think that as partof our job to emulate his undying Ahavas Yisrael, is also todevleop his deep Ahavas HaShem; and his unwavering commitment totruth. "

DS encourages subscribers to add to the tora which is occasionallyposted to the list.

Carol Rose, <rose@cc.UManitoba.CA>, in a posting headed 'Reinterpreting REB SHLOMO' remarks:  'I'm remembering what it waslike to be a student of a rebbe who specialized in offering boththe light and the vessel -- simultaneously.'

Joel Shoot, Johannesburg, South Africa 
<jshoot@global.co.za>  remarks that R. Shlomo "showed that Yiddishkeit full of Gevurah robbed one of an intimate relationshipwith our Creator, while a yiddishkeit too slanted to unboundedgiving and compromise, robbed us of the boundaries necessary toserve our Creator.'  He suggests that Emet (understood as theinfinite limit which defines the direction of the vector alongwhich one must strive)  is the resolution of Chesed vs. Gevurah.   
Responding to Mordechai Pearlman's remark that 
 "I do not think we have the sifting power of Reb Shlomo."
Art Waskow remarks that "we too can, like our great teachers, sifttruth from falsity"; to which MP rejoins, "A little separtionwould be in order.  Even Reb Shlomo was careful to say `l'havdil'when making statements such as yours."  (That is:  R. ShlomoCarlebach's teachings were presented as re-presentation of andcommentaries on traditional teachings; and his remarks indicatedthat he placed those figures on a higher level, or levels, than heplaced himself -- although those remarks may be lost to modernminded editors -- sa ) 

A correspondent with homepage at http://www.mcs.net/~tikunremarks: 
'We are all of great stature until we prove otherwise.  Who is tobe the judge and jury of one's insights.'
To which MP replies:  "Great stature and innocence are not thesame.  We need be careful not to denigrate the innocent but weneed ... honour ... [only] those that have attained stature. Having great potential is not the same as having realized thatpotential.'
Responding to Art Waskow [=AW] 's remark: 'Do we accept thatwhatever they said is the stopping-place of wisdom -- or that likethem we can begin to raise the questions of the future",
{Which reminds me of a remark, as I recall it, by R. ZalmanSchachter -- you don't need to check your brain [with the hatcheck girl at the theatre] when you walk in.'}
MP responds:  "These two are not opposites.  Asking questions isnot the opposite of finding answers.'
{Comment (sa):  I think somewhere I input a note from a R. Shlomoteaching: [I'm quoting approximately, and from memory]  'He wouldsay, why spoil a good question with an answer.' }
 [MP continues: ] Rather, after raising the questions of thefuture we search into the wisdom of those that preceeded us...'
He adds:  "I believe that ...the great test of groups who have alost a great leader...is, to attatch themselves to a new leaderand not to imagine that they are fatherless orphans with nobody toturn to and thus excuse themselves for wandering like a flock ofsheep without a shepherd and a chicken without a head."

------------------------------------------
Mordechai Pearlman notes:
"Reb Shlomo was a first cousin to may great-grandmother.  Hisfather was of the youngest of 12 children.  His aunt was theoldest of the children.  She was my great-great-grandmother. Therefore Reb Shlomo was three generations previous to thisgeneration."
Responding to the remark that"We search into the wisdom of everyresource, including our selves, in order to find solutions.  Weare the `living' and therefore we carry the past into the presentcreating a future here and now.'

MP adds:  "one must become a living Torah scroll in order to knowhow to interpret the past in the right way so that the future is aTorah future, not a croooked future." 
He follows this with a rather closely-argued drash on Deuteronomy17:11
{Comment (sa):  Really, this has become rather like a good tennismatch.}
Joining the argument on the side of the frumies, Leah Hochbaum,writing from Hevron and citing havadah, argues, "being equal isnot a Jewish idea -- it is dervied from western culture.  withinthe Jewish people, there have always been divisons k- betweencohanim, leviim and yisraleim, beween the different tribes,between men and women, between children and adults, between theking, shofet, or other learder of the generation and the rest ofthe people, and between the Jewish people and the rest of theworld."
{Comment (sa):  As I recall, the Prophet Samuel advised the peopleagainst setting up a king as distinct from the traditional leadersof the people.}
She then adds, on quite a Platonic note:  "Each divsiionrepresents a difference in expctations from G_d of that individual" -- and then brings it back to  Jewish context with the remark"different mitzvot which each is expected to fulfill."
{Comment (sa):  So that sets the quarrel of humanistic Judaism --which is really what the innovative-Judaism side of this Listrepresents -- and orthodox Judaism:  the orthodox assumption thatself-fulfillment is a matter of carrying out one's assignedmitzvot as fully as possible. }
She adds: "We are not supposed to all just decide for ourselves --but to connect to the tradition....That is what Smicha is allaobut -- having an established leadership within the Jewishpeople.  Just think about all the tzaddikim R' Shlomo connectedhimself to, how he humbled himself before them.  Do not make themistake of Korach - that he thought eveyrone oculd be MosheRabbenu.  We need to be ourseles -- let us focus on and worryabout that first."

DS notes the passing of Neila Carlebach's mother, ob'm.
Notes an address:
Glick, 116 Franham, Toronto, Ontario.
So I suppose that's how one could locate R. Joel Glick (a nephewof R. Shlomo Carlebach)  at whose home, as Chochmat haLev, R.Shlomo Carlebach (and others) gave exceptional teachings, ca.1984-1985.  I know the location of only a few tapes from R. JoelGlick's collection; those are held by TGG; but as I recall nonewere of teachings at Chochmat haLev. (See my listing in =inv*.*). 

Art Waskow gives a lovely wedding-ring story.  It turns out tohave been essentially one that he wrote.
I don't think it applies to Israel's political situation; but it'sa lovely story.

MP replies to a critic:  " What I said was that he kept his mouthshut.  That means 'totally closed' to speaking rebuke."
MP remarks, "When he went to Poland, I'm certain that many weredrawn to him out of curiosity.  He in fact mentioned it at akumsitz in Toronot.  He fetl that the Hews in Poalnd had neverseen a Jew like him.  He was an old ghost churned out of fairlytailes.    But Jews are drawn to the authentic."

MP recounts:  "There is a Rebbi here in a [Toronto] Jewish dayschool. His mother told me that if not for Shlomo, none of herchildren would be frum today.  That was in the early days when hewoudl appear in Pittsburgh, dressed like a Lubavitcher Chassid(which he was, black hat and jacket, tzitzis flying, small beard,a guitar and he would dance for hours with the little children."

DS notes that MP shares "half of our Rebbe's heritage -- yourlineage through Bella Rosenack to Esther Carlebach, Rabbi EphraimFishel Joel through the Bach and the Taz thorugh Dovid MalkaMoshicha and Yehuda.  Yehuda is the Torah of mistakes.
DS continues:  "Our Rebbe is Master of the Torah of Mistakes.  Hedidn't start out a gevalt mikarev.  In Lakewood, he was immersedin the light.  Yet he didn't learn in Lakewood how to shine thelight into the strangest of places.  A Baal Laaka, yet.  But to bea mashpiay -- to return the eshoamos to the Light.  This had to belearned by trial and error.  Like Rabbon Shimon bar Yocahi when hefirst came out of his cave, our Rebbe had to learn how to controlthe fire of his passions.  Our Rebbe told us a few stories of howhe first tried to inspire yidden by knocking them off.  
DS continues:  But the second half of our Rebbe' heritage is TorashaAim -- from Rebetsen Paul back through the Basler Rov, back toMoshe Charif, back to Aharon haCohen.  Harhoaron haCohen is themaker of Peace among Yidden.  Aharon haCohen is the Mater ofBigdei Kehuna, Levushim -- the holy Garments.
	How did our Rebbe make peace among yidden -- He learned tolook byond the garments, beyond orthodox, confservative,reform...."
This is an exceptional posting, which one should quote in full.  Iexcerpt.
DS also says: "Gevalt our Rebbe made himself so small to shinedown the light, he gave so much nonor to each and every lost soul. HE let them keep their little agenda, their garments, if theyneeded them.  
{Comment (sa):  And maybe this is, as I recall reading:  The wifeof Pharoh was so cruel, she made the Jewish women serve withouttheir clothes. }
Because he reached so much deeper.  He made every neshama feelthat he, the Rebbe, had something to learn from each one(m'talmidi yotai m'kulom).  That was his way of sharing the light.

He speaks of subscribersas being part of an "equal partnership in this experimentalcommunity who will decide what kind of contribuiton our rebbemight expectg of each and help to build it, each in is or her ownway, and to respect the efforts of the other chevra who only wantthe same thing, it is the whole community who will definethemselves."

Amy R. Katz  <amyrpk@juno.com> writes:  "reb shlomo teaches usthat adar represents oru holy mother rochel.  everybody knowsthere's sometimes one adar and sometimes two, sometimes it's justyosef ha'tzadik and other times it's manasche and efrayim.  andeven beyond, the whole purim story is the tribe of binaymin,because mordechai and esther were descended from king shaul, fromthe tribe of benyaim.  that means this month is completely rochelimmanu."

Announcement of a lecture by R. Yankele Shames, who started withR. Shlomo at the HLP, became a founding member of Meor Modi'in(where he lives),  and has taught Jewish meditation in Israel forover a decade.

*%* Mordechai Pearlman offers a verbatim transcription of aportion of a tape, teaching given Rosh Hodesh Adar 5744 (1984); MPthinks it was Motzi Shabbos.  "The tape is called Ishbitz becauseit was recorded in the Radziner Beis Medrash in New York with theReadziner Rebbe shlito in attendance."
The transcription is of a verison of 'Gut Purim Pinchas.  It lookslike a more authentic version that some of those in circulation.'
Then there is a Purim-dike story of Reb Dovid Dinover.
The luxury of MP's transcription is that he is fluent in Yiddishand Hebrew, so it all gets in.

The Schaefers offer teaching based upon "Toras Emes of Isbitzs",Reb Nachman, the Slonimer Rebbe, and R. Shlomo Carlebach.
They remark:  "Reb Shlomo says that when we do something good itis beautiful.  We must do things from the deepest depths of ourheart...{ellipsis Schaefers} responding form our innnermosttruth."
{Comment (sa):  In general, paraphrase is risky; an apparentlytrivial or superfluous word may carry a deep or significantnuance. And when a paraphrase is incorporated into a teaching frommany sources (including one's own thoughts), much care must betaken with punctuation, and footnotes must be used, to distinguishthe paraphrased remarks of R.

From an Israel orthodox standpoint (modern orthodox, not tomention ultra-orthodox) it would be perceived as quite a strongstatement; though it would not seem so in the context of USA'innovative Judaism'.

DS notes, 24 Apr 97, that the preceeding "is the last large baththat I can post to our list.  Just about every tora that wasdistributed for free or at cost during our Rebbe's lifetown [sic,rather a nice word, 'lifetown'] has been mailed to the list [andposted to the Website]
"As you see, the source publication list was kind of short:
HBG 5732-33
CNS 5745-49
Cong. Kehilath Jacob Bulletin 5750-54
DS notes the following editors:  Donna Anderson Maimes, R ElanaRappaport Schacter, R. Sam Intrator, Rivka Haut, Louise TempleBarret
Notes that they were SCANed at 200 dpi, enlarged to letter size,and OCR'd.  "The rsultant page was 'cleaned' and reformatted forscreen output. 
Notes that in some cases, he added additional editting. 

<julewis@JTSA.EDU> summarizes some teachings (not by R. Shlomo;current teachings) heard at the Carlebach shul:  that the lastmeal of Pesach is seudas Meshiach; that (R. Sam Intrator said)some great rabbis had an extra seudah and ate matza well afternightfall, and drink 4 glasses of wine, at that around 11 PM theBobov Rebbe would go out with his hasidim, carrying torches. AndR. Sam Intrator said, this is the time to reach out to all yiddenwho have gone 'Acher', so far out they're off the cliff and downinto the abyss [says I] .  And so there is a strong minhag to makehavdalah on Pesach over beer.  And even eat bread from a nonJewish bakery.
{Comment (sa):  One has to use animal fat or oil to grease thebread-pans.  Nowadays the former is uncommon or even forbidden innorthern European countries; but the same word in German,l'havdil, 'Fette', is used for both vegetable oils and animal fat. Islamic law forbids the use of pig-products; so one can rely tolarge extent on finding Arabic notation of ingredients.  (Camelsare scrawny.)   Eating pork is not a right, it's a vice.   Likesmoking, or using NutraSweet. Puran Bair said:  pork clogs up thesubtle body. }
And so for Sephardim, it is a large part of the minhag of Mimuna,to eat bread from their Arab neighbors. 
So the idea is, from the strength of Pesach, one reaches out toall the chametzadike yidden. 
He reports:  "Chaya Adler gave a long beautiful Chasidische tora,weaving her own tora with teachings from Shlomo,  the Izbitzer andRebbe Nachman.  Some of the things she taught were:
Shlomo was cvery clear that no one understands Moshiach. ...Wedon't have the kelim...[I do not know the next sentence is from R.Shlomo] but you can have a taste of Moshiach, from friendship andlovingkindness, opneness to each other, and giving to each other [And Chaya Adler said that] "Shlomo  said that as Moshiach getscloser, there will be fewer and fewer Rebbes.  [I don't know ifthe following comes from Chaya Adler, or also comes from R.Shlomo:] Our Rebbes will have to be our own bodies, and ourfriends, and G_d is asking us to be more self-reliant.  And someof this comes from\

learning Torah. 
Adds:  "In our generation, there's no place for giving musar,rebuke.  Shlomo was very clear about that.  Don't give others ahard time and don't give yourself a hard time. The yetzer haraisn't so much out to get you to sin, as to get you to feel guiltyand give yourself a hard time afterwards."
Adds:  "Rebbe Nachman teaches that a person who's like a camel,can't be a leader.  What does it mean?  IF a camel and horse are...going through the desert, the horse gets thirsty and has tostop and drink -- the camel doesn't understand it."

Many notes about Eliah (Ely-ah) Sukkot, who was said to have alarge collection of R. Shlomo Carlebach material.
	There's a lot of good material in this article, though it's abit hard to read, presented in 3-carrot format <<<

(A forwarded copy of my memos =shm1121r + =shmarch2, both inwp=W.EXE format, sent to AG 4/29/97, is practically unreadable; Isent it to LIST in ASCII, 5/22/97; that was my first Post to List,it is on =log9705b
 
*#* DS re-posts "Gut Hodesh", first posted 5/17/96, New York Iyar5746; Apparently Kehillat Jacob. 
DS says that any teaching posted to LIST is on Website; but Ihaven't seen that.  It may be that it's still there, but the HTMLlinks keep dropping off.

I don't plan to re-postthem to LIST, unless someone strips in the Hebrew, from tapes(which I have).  I think I sent a copy of the tapes to LeahGolumb.  In any event, Hatzkele Sasson (=HH), also at Modi'in, mayhave a better copy; it was he who originally recommended thisteaching to me.

EW requests material for kol chevre 4
DS notes that Kol Chevre is "the 'official newsletter' of 'Shirl'Shlomo', the Shlomo Carlebach Foundatin of Eretz Israel. Presently, a single issue is published yearly on the Yom haHula,16 Rom Heshvon."

DS quotes EW, apparently in an introduction to Kol Chevre:
"Reb Shlomo touched each and eveyr one of our souls.  Reb Shlomotold us that Moshe Rabbneu says you can't be a Jew unless yourheart is broken.  Heartbroken here doesn't mean sad.  It emanssomthing touches me very deeply.  When something is very deep itbreaks our heart into pieces. "
EW adds: "Reb Shlomo always wanted to hear our 'chidushim', ouroriginal Torah.  He brought out the best in us and when we werewith him , we were all shining.   So the Rebbe is not here in bodybut he left us the greatest gift -- he left us the gift of soulfriendship.  May we  all be blessed to give support to each other,to listen to each other's hearts, to share, to sing, to dance, andto daven together ..."
