0684 - R' Yoel Kahn 34 - Must Be Botel (nullified) to the Rebbe Like a Typewriter

00:00 One of the main things of Rabbi Ale's fabrengins was that you have to be bottled to the Rebbe. And I remember when we were still in Bedford learning before we came to 770, and even when we-- after we came to 770, he would talk a lot about it by fabrengins. And many times, he would use this moshel, that you have to be like a typewriter. A typewriter types the sichas and the mamorim of the Rebbe, the typewriter types it. Nevertheless, the typewriter is not a matzias for itself. It's only a... Everyone is supposed to be like that, that you're supposed to feel yourself no matzias, bottled to the Rebbe, and you're only a vessel, a keila, through which the Rebbe gives through his inyonim. And we understood that the reason he used that moshel because he was really referring to himself. Because when he used to write the Rebbe's teyde, the sichas, the mamorim, et cetera, he used to type. So when he typed the sichas, the mamorim, he was trying to say that you have to feel like the typewriter itself, just like the typewriter also type-types the sichas, the mamorim, but it's not a matzias for himself. So to the person who types also should not be a matzias for himself. He should be bottled, and he should feel this is only the Rebbe working through him, but he is not a matzias for himself. But I wanna add that I think once the Rebbe basically gave him a lesson that it's not

01:23 enough just to be completely bottled. We know that the Rebbe says in many sichas the inyan of a shliach. We know a shliach, shluchot, and kemayisa, a shliach is supposed to be bottled to the mashaleach. Nevertheless, the Rebbe explains that he's not like an eved. An eved doesn't have his own matzias at all. He's a katchila bottle. But a shliach is a matzias for himself. He's a person. So therefore, the shliach has to be a person, has to make the decisions, has to have a seichel, and that should go together with the bittle. That even though he's making his own decisions, it should all be based on the bittle that he has to the Rebbe, but he should be his own matzias to figure out what the Rebbe wants, not just do like the typewriter, so to speak. So there was once that the Rebbe wrote something to Rabbi Ale, which I think the Rebbe hinted then this nekude, that it's not enough to be like the typewriter, but you have to also use your keiches and with that together with the bittle to do what the Rebbe wants. That will be in the next voice note.
