0057 - R' Eliyahu Akiva Lipskier about Harav Chadakov

00:00 Rabbi Eli Lipsker, Eli Akiva Lipsker, who was a mechanech and melamed in Toronto, a fam- very famous one. So he once told me that he went into yechidas in the first years, and he was asking the Rebbe, speaking to the Rebbe about something. He didn't say what. It was something private. And, uh, the Rebbe said to him that he wants to know something, that he should get back to him, that Rabbi Lipsker should get back to the Rebbe. And then Rabbi, the Rebbe told Rabbi Lipsker that when you get the information, you should, uh, give it over to Rabbi Chadakov. Rabbi Chadakov will tell the Rebbe. So he told me he was standing with Shas Maisel, thinking in his mind, "This is a private matter. It's confidential." He feels uncomfortable telling Rabbi Chadakov. To the Rebbe, he spoke, but feeling c- uncomfortable to tell Rabbi Chadakov. The Rebbe says to him, whether the Rebbe read his machshava or pashut he saw on his face that he was uncomfortable, I don't know. But the Rebbe said to him, "You can trade in with Rav Chadakov, punkt vi ret mit mir." You're able to talk to Rabbi Chadakov just like you're talking to me. In other words, he was saying Rabbi Chadakov is, keeps everything confidential, is a baal sod. And whatever you tell him, don't worry, it's mamash like you're telling it to me.
