0400 - Changes in Lekutei Sichos Regarding Shlichus

00:01 In the Kute Sichas, Chelek Yud Aleph, the third Sichah to Parashat Pekudei, page one eighty-six, the Rebbe talks about the Inyan of Shlichus. And the Rebbe explains that there could be a certain Taina that a person might have why he doesn't want to go on Shlichus. So I wanna read the way it was written in the Chatfila based on what the Rebbe said by this Farbrengen, where the Sichah is from, which is Parashat Shemini-Toshach Chof He, and what the Rebbe changed, and the way it's written in the Kute Sichas now in this page one eighty-six in Chelek Yud Aleph. It was written like this, "Kasher merim limsei aval asik ba'afotz hamayones chutzot beshalichas nasi ha'dor." When you tell somebody, when you tell them, I guess means that the Rebbe tells them, kasher merim, you tell to go and to, you know, get involved in afotz hamayones chutzot in the shlichus of the Nosi HaDor, "Yitach ein ha'dover shemisho hu yachsheiv shelifim matzoh veheiveh ein hero zu sheichas elav." Person might think according to the situation now, this hero is not sheichas to him. Be-taina, he might taina like this, "Ki im shehu a chasid Chabad," since he's a Chabad chasid, "V'al tichsidus Chabad, hare ein lehishtafek be-emunah." According to Tichsidus Chabad, you can't be satisfied just with Emunah. "El atzorch lis yagea bechol dover," you have to horav, you have to work hard in everything. "Ad sheyusag veyunach etz la'yim bepnimiyus." Still he understands and this oguleit by him in his mind the pnimius. "Ube'meile

01:29 tein ube'meile hitainis, eizeh te'eles tove mizeh sheyisha beshalichas hanosi?" What gain will there be if he goes with the shlichus of the Rebbe, of the Nosi? "Ve'yaseg ba'afotz hamayones chutzot," and he'll get involved in the afotz hamayones chutzot. "Kasher kol inyan shlichus zu la'afotz hamayones chutzot er etz liv bepnin hasmakim." When all, the whole Inyan of afotz hamayones and the shlichus is by him only in a superficial way. "Ve'einen emeiv ve'namaseg zeh adain besichlei be'efen pnimiy." He still doesn't understand it in his mind, the pnimiyus dikah seichah. "Ve'lochen ledaiti," therefore according to his opinion, "Betchili yageh es atzmem be'limud ve'hisbonenus hachsidus." First he's gonna learn and be misbonen contemplating Yom HaChsidus. "Ube'meshech hazman kasher yusag ve'yunach etz lei shetzorich la'aseh ba'afotz hamayones," and with time passing, when it'll be understood and oguleit in his mind that you have to get involved in afotz hamayones, "Azai yekayem ve'yamaleh et hashalichas be'efen pnimiy." Then he's gonna be mekayem and fulfill the shlichas in efen pnimiyus. Now, the Rebbe changed quite a few things here. First of all, instead of saying, "Kasher merim," when we tell somebody, we t- we say, "Hero et," to go, um, afotz hamayones beshalichas Nosi HaDor, the Rebbe crossed it out and the Rebbe just wrote, "Kasher matzim shlichas." When you're matzia, you offer a shlichas to go travel and to get involved in afotz hamayones, it's possible a person might think that the way it's now, it's not sheichas to him, this taina. So instead of writing the way it was written

02:57 before, and that's the way it seemed from the Farbrengen, the way it's written before, that's more or less what the Rebbe said by Farbrengen, that the guy could taina since he's a chasid Chabad. Now, Tichsidus Chabad is not enough for Emunah, and you have to horav and you have to get involved. The Rebbe changed it. The Rebbe didn't cross out the words that he'd kataina is a chasid Chabad and al Tichsidus you have to horav. He wrote like this. He kataina like this, "Harei ocheilik meam nchochon venoven." Since you're a part of the smart nation, "Ve'lochen tzorich lis hanagos be'efen kazeh," therefore he has to behave in such a way, "Heinu lehisbonen bechol inyan ve'dover," to be misbonen in everything, "Ad sheyusag ve'yunach etz lei bepnimiyus." The things should be in the pnimius. So the Rebbe took out this idea that he might taina because he's a chasid Chabad, he doesn't wanna go. He just said because he belongs to a smart nation, as the posek says, and the pa-- meili wants to understand everything. And the whole line where it seemed to be saying that therefore a person could taina what gain will there be if he goes on the shlichas when it's only bemakiv, the Rebbe crossed out the whole line, and the Rebbe just left the words. "Ube'matzav haheiveh," he wrote, and in this matzav, the way he is, the shlichas la'afotz meinos chutzot is only bepnin hasmakim, and he doesn't understand bepnimiyus. And therefore, the Rebbe left these words. He's first

04:08 gonna horav, and the way it was written before, he's gonna horav in learning and hisbonenus of Chsidus. The Rebbe changed that, and the Rebbe wrote he's gonna horav in learning Torah b'chalal and in limud hamayones v'Toras HaChsidus b'frat. "Ube'meshech hazman," when he's going to understand it, then he'll get involved in afotz hamayones. But the way it was written before was that then he's going to be mekayem or fulfill the shlichas. The Rebbe changed it and wrote then the person might say he's gonna be mekabel al atzme, he will accept upon himself the shlichas, and he will be mekayemet be'efen pnimiyus. So there are different words that the Rebbe made point of mentioning. The taina is not because it's chasid Chabad. The Rebbe took out the word. They tell him to go on shlichas, but they're matzia to go on shlichas. And his taina that his shlichas is not worth anything because he's not in pnimiyus, that taina the Rebbe took out. That's not a taina. That's not even what the person might taina. And when the person s-- it was written that a person says that he's gonna first learn Chsidus and be misbonen Chsidus, the Rebbe said, wrote that first he's going to learn Torah b'chalal. That's what the taina is, and Chsidus b'frat. And then instead of the way it said before, then he's gonna be mekayem the shlichas, then he will be mekabel upon himself the shlichas and be mekayemet.
