The Light of the Rebbe's Gartel
Rebbe Elimelech had a custom that after the afternoon
Mincha service he would converse with his close
followers. He would then proceed to a special private
room to pray the evening Maariv service alone in
seclusion, purity and sanctity. Rabbi Naftali Ropshitzer,
a student of the Rebbe always yearned to also
be in that
room. He constantly wished to see the deeds of his Rebbe
and how he prayed at that time. Once he stole into the
room unnoticed and hid beneath the bed. The holy Rebbe
entered and closed the door behind him. He took his “gartel,”
the traditional sash or belt used by Hassidim for prayer
and preceded to fasten it about himself.
The first time
he wound the sash about his waist the whole house was
filled with an awesome unbelievable light. The second
time he tied the gartel winding it around, the light
grew in intensity until the Ropshitzer could no longer
endure it. He grew weak and found himself fainting.

Free as a bird
Rav Chaim of Chernowitz - Czernowitz in his Teshuvah – Responsa
concerning performance of mitzvos with the fullest
intent – quotes the Tikkunei Zohar (#10 pg 25b) “Every
mitzvah that is not performed with awe/fear and love of
The Master does not fly upwards.” He teaches that
awe/fear and love are like two wings. “They are like the
wings of a bird. A bird uses them to soar up through the
air to the heavens. However were he to lack wings or if
they should break he cannot fly upwards. So too the
commandments which are done without love and fear. They
are as if they lack wings and how should they fly and
rise upwards?”

The Prayer before Praying
Protect and shield us from jealousy between fellows. Let not jealousy enter
our hearts and may others not be jealous of us. On the contrary place in
our hearts the ability to see only the good in our friends, and not their
shortcomings! May we speak with each other only justly and pleasantly as is good
and desirable in Your eyes. May there be no hate between friends Heaven Forbid.
Strengthen
our ties and our bond with love to You. As it is revealed and known before You
that we strive to give you only satisfaction and pleasure. This is the basis of
all our intentions. If we do not have the intellect to properly direction our
hearts to You, please teach us how to know truthfully that which you desire for
the good/best.
Above all we beg of You,
pleading before you, O’ G-d of mercy, accept our prayers with compassion and
good will. Amen, may it be Your will.
