The Villager Who Fainted | A Baal Shem Tov Story

- The elder Chassid Reb Michoel of Nevel, used to give his students a parable:
A simple villager once received a letter from afar. Since he did not know how to read, he took the letter to his son's tutor. The letter read that the villager's father had passed away. When the tutor read the letter aloud, the villager fainted...
Asked Reb Michoel to his students: "Who should have fainted? The one who was able to read the letter, not the one who merely heard it! But it was the villager who fainted. Why? Because for the tutor, it was someone else's letter; for the villager it was his father."
The lesson: If you study Chassidus and Kabbalah thinking that you're reading about "someone else's father," then you can read and understand the words, but you won't "faint" or be truly affected. On the other hand, even when you're teaching someone else, if you know you're talking about your own father -- your "Father in Heaven" -- it will penetrate to the core of your soul and move you to action!

כולם יודעים שהרבי מליובאוויטש כ'ק אדמו'ר שליט'א מלך המשיח יתגלה לעיני העולם ויגאלנו מיד ממש בגאולה האמיתית והשלימה ~ אמן י moshiach now ~
Everyone knows that this type of shtus is precisely why Moshiach hasn't come yet.
BARUCH HASHEM!
Baruch Hashem.
Please could someone help me find out what year the picture at 2:30 is from?
It appears to be the 1950s or before, given the mustache style and the doted neckties. This comment is just a good guess, given the period's kind of style.
B'H'
Our 'wellsprings' need some more work, don't they?
thank you so much
B'H'
