0396 - R' Leibel Raskin Was Jealous of the Bochurim

00:01 I once heard from Rav Leibl Raskin, alav hashalom, who was a very, very Chassidishe Yid. He was a shliach of the Rebbe to Morocco. So he told me that once when he came from Morocco in the Chofs, and he saw the Bochrim, and he saw with the Bochrim, they were gilegen nor in Rebbe, he said. They were involved. Everything was around the Rebbe, in the sichas and in the ma'amorim of the Rebbe, in all the tnuos of the Rebbe, all movements of the Rebbe, everything that the Rebbe did. This is the l'shainus he used to me. Poshut, he said, he was jealous of the Bochrim. And he felt so much that he must write to the Rebbe what he sees. He must write to the Rebbe what he sees concerning how the Bochrim behave. So he did it, he told me. He wrote to the Rebbe that he sees the Bochrim, and that the whole involvement is only in the Rebbe, and all the protim that are connected to the Rebbe. And he wrote all the details to the Rebbe. And he felt that he would give the Rebbe nachas ruach. But he said it was an expression of his jealousy, that he's jealous of the Bochrim the way the Bochrim were then. And when he wrote to the Rebbe, the Rebbe answered him, "Tachal absurus fevus." He gave him a thanks for writing to the Rebbe good news.
