0169 - Rebbe Told Someone to Wash Hand After Cleaning Ears

00:01 I remember once when the Rebbe davened upstairs, it was Mincha or Ma'ariv, I don't remember which one. The Rebbe noticed in the middle of davening that one of the people there took his finger and stuck it into his ear and cleaning his ear. So the Rebbe from far motioned to him. He made two fists and he motioned putting one fist over the other and then the other fist over this one, which is a symbol of having to wash. Like when you take a cloth and you wash one hand and then you wash the other hand. So the Rebbe made that sign to him, telling him that if you put your hands in your ears and you clean your ears, you got to wash your hands, especially if you're in the middle of davening. But this is what the Rebbe did. He made the sign like this as if you're washing and he showed it to him that he should go wash his hands.
