| | FreewarePalm: The Making of Chassidim |
 | | Although it is a personal letter from father to daughter, the first 120 pages of the manuscript somehow became public under somewhat mysterious circumstances. |  | | In this letter, we are treated to a glimpse into the lives of several early chassidim, who were instrumental in spreading chassidic teachings and the chassidic way of life in the regions where Chabad Chassidus originated. |  | | This manuscript was known simply as "the Long Letter." The conclusion of the letter, however, remained private. |

| | The Rebbe Says...Sivan 5763 |
 | | The whole town seemed to be dancing around the bride and groom, and yet despite the great throng of people who had come to gladden the couple there was no mistaking the person who was dancing with tremendous joy in the center of the circle. |  | | When the dance ended the chassidim rushed up to the wagon driver and asked him the reason for his great joy. |  | | Some argued that when visiting a Chassidic Rebbe of this stature, only spiritual requests were in order. |

| | The Golden Dynasty-Chapter 10 |
 | | Chassidim would say that the Rebbe was blessed not just with an ordinary ru'ach hakodesh, he possessed a 'super' ru'ach hakodesh. |  | | Although the Rebbe spent most of the day behind closed doors, there were certain occasions when he would emerge from his room and then the chassidim would be granted the opportunity to witness the Rebbe's great avodah (service) and kedusha (holiness). |  | | Straight after Yom Kippur the Rebbe fell ill, the chassidim who had realized that their crown was about to be removed from on their heads, implored the very heavens to have mercy on their holy Rebbe, the last one of the Ruzhiner's children. |

 | | But blessings were not the only reason that the chassidim dreamed of having the Rebbe to tea. |  | | Since it was a well-known fact that the Rebbe's blessings were always fulfilled, the hosts naturally always felt that they had gained more than they had given. |  | | Reb Mordechai slowly cast his gaze over the dozens of upturned faces and then he allowed his eyes to rest on one of them. |

Seeing that my father was in a good mood, I asked him the two questions that were giving me no rest. |

| | The Making of Chassidim: The Story of Pidyon Sh'vuyim |
 | | The agents and some of the scholars in the beis hamedrash departed to immerse themselves in the mikveh, according to the custom of the people called "chassidim." Upon their return, each of them began studying and was soon lost in thought; it was quite some time before they actually began their prayers. |  | | "May the fear of your mentor be as great as the fear of Heaven." These same tzaddikim and geonim were disciples of the Baal Shem Tov, who had sent them as his agents to his chassidim to enable them to participate in the great mitzvah of pidyon sh'vuyim. |  | | When the feast was finished, the tzaddik Reb Nachman spoke about the women who had wept while begging the collectors to accept their contribution toward the sum the Rebbe had assessed the Zaslover Chassidim. |

 | | Once, the Rebbe's son, Reb Menachem Nuchem, was asked why it was that whilst the Sadigerer Rebbe was alive his chassidim were well to do and didn't have to worry for their daily bread, while in Boyan many of the chassidim lived in poverty. |  | | The chassidim who came to Rachmistrivka were very impressed with their Rebbe's new son-in-law, his conduct already then placing him far above them. |  | | This mido which is usually acquired only after much toil and hard work was easily attained by even the most simple of the thousands of chassidim who flocked, en masse, to the first Boyaner Rebbe, Reb Yitzchok Friedman zt'l. |

 | | These people, who often became Chassidim leaders were not called Rabbis; this term was reserved for the head spiritual leader of a congregation, if not of an entire town. |  | | Yet many well educated people were so influenced with this one leader that their lives were completely changed by his teachings, and they became a part of the movement. |  | | Every word was repeated and repeated, and then the Rebbe started singing, and the Chassidim followed. |

 | | The Chassidim instituted a number of changes in standard Jewish practice and many great leaders viewed them as a nascent breakaway sect from true Judaism in the manner of similar movements in the past. |  | | The emphasis of Chassidus on mysticism was particularly worrisome in this regard. |  | | (This error was not without basis; unfortunately, many Chassidim (followers of Chassidus) also fell into this error.) The reasons behind this great controversy are complex and it is really not possible to do justice to them in a short essay. |
