Agudas Chasidei Chabad Publishes Letter To Chassidim For Gimmel Tammuz

Leading up to Gimmel Tammuz, Agudas Chasidei Chabad has published a letter to Chabad Chassidim as is their annual custom.

Letter:

Yom Habahir 28 Sivan, 5785

Fellow Anash and Temimim, שיחיו,

Greetings and blessings,

As we draw near to the of the Yom Hahilula of the Rebbe זצוקללה”ה נבג”מ זי”ע—
we recall the Rebbe’s explanation that the flow of blessing on this day is commensurate with one’s preparation and spiritual receptiveness.

In these auspicious days, we are witnessing a global awakening among our fellow Jews, including even those who seemed “lost” and “distanced,” inspired by the open and miraculous events—utterly above the bounds of nature—that have occurred recently in connection with our Holy Land.

In accordance with the Rebbe’s directives (following the Six-Day War), we must channel this spiritual arousal into tangible increase in Torah study and mitzvah observance in our daily lives.

When we recognize the miracles that Hashem performs for us, we are reminded of the truth that “In every generation… Hashem saves us from their hands,” which compels us to offer praise and thanks to Hashem. And through this, we increase our Torah study and mitzvah observance with added care—thereby eliciting even greater miracles (as the Rebbe explained following the Gulf War).

Therefore, we hereby call upon every individual to utilize these days to intensify and strengthen their efforts in studying the Rebbe’s Torah and fulfilling his sacred directives, with particular focus on the following:

A. Studying the Rebbe’s Sichos, Maamorim, Reshimos, and holy Igros—especially the “Kuntres Purim Katan 5752”, the maamar “V’Atah Tetzaveh,” the last maamar (to date) that the Rebbe personally edited and distributed by hand to each Chossid.

B. Utilizing the current awakening among our fellow Jews—each person according to their sphere of influence—to inspire increased Torah learning and mitzvah observance, especially in the Ten Mivtzoim.

C. Awakening ourselves and others to recognize and express gratitude for the miracles we’ve experienced—with true joy—and at the same time, to demand and cry out for the ultimate miracle: the true and complete Geula. The most direct path to achieving this is through learning about Moshiach and Geula, particularly as elucidated in the Rebbe’s Torah.

D. Gathering together with one’s family and community during the days of the Hilula, and sharing with them the wondrous work of the Rebbe: his boundless Ahavas Yisroel, the unique guidance he gave us for this very time, and above all, the mission with which he charged each and every one of us—to prepare ourselves to greet Moshiach Tzidkeinu.

On the day of the Yom HaHilula, a Pan Kloli on behalf of all Chassidim will be read at the Rebbe’s holy Ohel. Anyone wishing to add their name and their mother’s name may do so by visiting www.Aguch.org/pankloli. The Pan will be read at 2:00 PM (New York time) and broadcast live at the address above.

We hereby call upon all of Anash and the Temimim to stand together—“Kulanu Ke’echad”—united in heart and purpose. Through this, may we merit the fulfillment of the verse “Borchenu Avinu Be’or Panecha”—that the Rebbe’s blessings be bestowed upon each individual, in all areas of life.

And together with our praise and gratitude to Hashem for the revealed miracles “ברוך ה’ שלא נתננו טרף לשיניהם”—we raise our voices in a heartfelt cry:
“Ad Mosai?!”
“Ad Mosai Ketz HaPelaos?!”
“Ezreinu B’Shem Hashem Oseh Shamayim Va’aretz!”

We pray for peace and security for our fellow Jews in the Holy Land and around the world. May we all merit the fulfillment of the prophecy of “Hakitzu V’ranenu,” with the Rebbe leading us out of this bitter and dark exile and guiding us upright to our Holy Land with the true and complete redemption.

On behalf of the Vaad,

Avraham Yitzchak Shemtov
Chairman
