There were Chasidim who were mekushar to the Rebbe Rashab and did not make the transition to the Rebbe Rayatz; Chasidim of the Rebbe Rayatz who did not make the transition to the Rebbe.<BR/><BR/>I would define a mekushar and meshichist as someone who ascribes to there being one final shlichus, that of "kabbolas pnei Moshiach Tzidkeinu" (as the Rebbe told the shluchim at the Kinus Ha'Shluchim 5752). The Rebbe said what shlichus consists of now, that every single peula should be done in a way that is permeated with the point: how it leads to kabbolas pnei Moshiach Tzidkeinu. The Rebbe went on to say that this means that every shaliach has to "prepare himself and the Jews of his city, to greet Moshiach, by explaining the inyan of Moshiach as it is explained in the written and oral Torah, in a way that it can be accepted by each person according to his intellect and understanding."<BR/><BR/>Likewise, a mekushar and meshichist would ascribe to what the Rebbe said, Shoftim 5751, that "each person has to recognize himself, and publicize among his widest circle of influence, that we need to accept upon ourselves the rulings and advice of "the judges" and "the advisors" of our generation... in particular, this refers to the leader of our generation -- the judge, advisor and prophet of our generation."<BR/><BR/>A mekushar and meshichist would ascribe to the Rebbe=Nasi-Hador=Moshiach, as the Rebbe told us.<BR/><BR/>These are the Rebbe's designations, the Rebbe's hora'os.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1794880599062240721.post-57545985209410309842009-01-13T22:08:00.000-05:002009-01-13T22:08:00.000-05:00Yes it certainly does.I stand by my words.
