0296 - What Are Talmidim Hashluchim Part 2

00:00 Concerning the union of the Talmidim Hashluchim, so Shabbos Parshas Toldes, which was Shabbos Kislev, 5774. The Rebbe spoke about this . Not only that, he was later the sicha, especially as a part specially connected to Talmidim Hashluchim. Actually, then he also connected it to yungerleit who were sent as shluchim to kolelim, but the same idea. And here the Rebbe said that the person, the bochurim are sent l'chatchilah, or those who are sent to the kollel, they're sent, and the fact that they're sent shows that they're special, that they're chosen. They're chosen to be sent as shluchim. So they were sent to learn Torah and to be neiros l'hoir, to be a guiding light for others. Therefore, they haven't-- they shouldn't mix in the Gan HaOleh yeshiva to the Rosh Yeshiva or Gan HaOleh of the kollel, and you should gi- shouldn't give opinions, and you certainly shouldn't make a, a fight. And therefore, the Rebbe said that he's asking b'chol loshon shel bakasha, which means he's begging that the bochurim or the kolel yungerleit that are on shlichus under the Gan HaOleh. So they're sent to learn Torah, to be neiros l'hoir, not to mix in Gan HaOleh yeshiva and amaze this. If a bochur, a shliach bochur has a ta'anah against the Rosh Yeshiva, and he thinks that things have to be changed, and according to his understanding, he's a hundred percent right, so it's very right that he should go over to the Rosh Yeshiva and speak to him in a way al

01:23 pi Torah which is b'darko ne'eman u'bdarko shalom, quietly, certainly without a tumul. And if that doesn't help, then he should go to the one who's on top of him, the one that's in charge, but not chas ve'shalom to make any machlokes. And the Rebbe says, "I'm saying very clearly, the way to fix this is not don't write to me any letters. Don't tell me the matzav. Don't mix me in. I don't wanna get mixed into this." To say that the way that our behim made it, that you have to speak to Gan HaOleh or to, to the ones that on top Gan HaOleh b'darko ne'eman u'bdarko shalom, asking them that they should fix whatever has to be fixed. And if Gan HaOleh agrees with you, it's fine. Mateiv hamanoiim. It's very good. But if Gan HaOleh doesn't agree with you, then you have to put away your sechel. And since you were sent as a shliach to learn Torah and to be a neir l'hoir, not to make machlokes Gan HaOleh, you have to accept the authority of Gan HaOleh. And if you do not do that, and you're not keeping the rotson of the meshaleach, so then you're not shliach. So he says, "If you can accept it is good, then you should sit down and learn, and learn Beis Yashivas, and fine, mateiv hamanoiim. But if you think that you can't do it, obviously you think that really what's happening is wrong." And the Rebbe doesn't say that always the bochurim, the talmidim

02:29 are wrong. He just said, "But if you feel it's wrong, but you didn't accomplish to change the Gan HaOleh's opinion, the-- and you can't stay here under this circumstance, you ca-- you don't feel like that to work under these circumstances, so ein packen die pekhelach. Pack your packages and go back to the place from where you came, where you came from." And he said, "And I'm not gonna have ta'anas to you, but this is what you have to do." So the Rebbe made it very clear that the whole purpose is to send, is to learn Torah and to be neiros l'hoir. And by doing, by this sicha also, just like I said considering that settla, on one hand, the Rebbe is saying something very, very sharp, but the Rebbe this sh- does show what the shluchim bochurim are. And he says clearly that he sent the bochurim shluchim. In other words, they are shluchim from the Rebbe, and they have all the guide and concept of shluchim. Shlichus l'rov kemayseh, everything is there. But they have certain guidelines how they have to behave, like any shliach has guidelines how he has to behave. But the fact that there is something special, and the Rebbe says clearly, the fact that you're sent shows that you are chosen. The Rebbe uses the word bochur with the word mufkar, that you are a chosen person, that you are special people who are sent, but they have to accomplish what they were sent for. And the Rebbe says if

03:35 not, then they have no place to be there. And for sure, the bochurim take this seriously, and they take and do what they're supposed to, and bemele they fulfill the shlichus b'meluah.
