0502 - Omitted Parts in the Hanacha Because They Were Sharp Part 4 - Listening to the Sichos

00:01 Another example of something the Rebbe said by a fabregen, but when it came to write the Hanocher, when it was printed, it was skipped. That is in the fabregen, Shabbos Parshas Ve'era Tov Shin Hof Ches. In the middle of the Rasha Sikhe, the Rebbe stopped and the Rebbe said that there are some people here who are afraid that I might look at them, and I will ask him where something says. When I mention something from a place, and I might turn around to them, and I would ask him where it says. And the problem is that they don't know where I'm holding, whether I'm holding in the beginning of the sikhe or in the middle of the sikhe, or we're almost finished with the sikhe and we're going to sing a nigun. V'meile, they're afraid I might ask him. So the Rebbe, seems if I remember correctly, said that he's not going to say do that because metzayer zein a Yidden is oser afilu by beneiach. To make a Yidden have tzar is oser. It's even oser by a beneiach, by even by goyim. You're not allowed to cause a person tzar. So I certainly wouldn't do it. But then the Rebbe said that maybe I should speak with closed eyes, so I won't see this. And the reason would be not to be metzayer Yidden, so I would speak with closed eyes. So the Rebbe said to speak with closed eyes is a hanhogim mezorah. It's a strange way of doing things. V'meile, that

01:19 he's not going to do. But what the Rebbe was saying, it was meile to people that people should pay attention and listen to what he says.
