Vaad Anash Beit Sefer Chabad D... in Eretz HaKodesh Tuviah Al Yedei Mashiach Tzidkeinu Bekarov Hashem Alehem Yechyu

Shalom u'Vrachah!

I acknowledge receipt of your letter from the 22nd of Cheshvan, confirming your selection as representatives of Anash in ... May it be G‑d's will that you succeed in your holy work to strengthen and develop the Chabad school in ... d.

Certainly you will not be affected by those who oppose our Rebbeim and Nesi'im, for this is not new in our land; it has existed since the revelation of the inner dimension of Torah—especially when it is explained in a way understandable even to human intellect so that it too becomes a vessel fit to unite with the inner Torah, a unity in every detail, as explained in Sefer Tanya Kadisha chapter 5.

It is especially known that there is a ruling from the Heavenly Court that because of the self-sacrifice (of Rabbeinu HaZaken) for the teachings of Chassidus, they ruled Above that in every matter of Torah, fear of Heaven, and good character traits, those connected to him and following his path will prevail.

May it be G‑d's will that Hashem have mercy on those who walk in darkness and fight against the light of Torah—which is the inner Torah revealed in our generation through Chassidus—and may they merit to see that "the light is good." Even those who, as Rabbeinu HaZaken writes in his introduction to Tanya, whose intellect and understanding are confused and walk in darkness in serving Hashem (and therefore) can barely see that "the light is good," can surely have this difficulty removed by Hashem. With kindness and mercy He will repair what they have corrupted or lacked until now—as explained at the end of Iggeres HaTeshuvah chapter 9 (as stated in Tadb'a): If a person sinned and became liable etc., if he was accustomed to read one page he should now read two pages etc.—all the more so regarding matters affecting many people: spreading the wellsprings of Chassidus. The beginning of this work is at an early age; it is clearly seen that even when teaching Alef-Beis or similar subjects, it makes a difference if the teacher is imbued with chassidic light and warmth or not.

With blessings for outstanding success in all the above and for good news—in an ever-increasing manner—especially as we approach Kislev, the month of miracles, redemption, and open victory for Chassidus and its matters.

Summary

The Rebbe teaches that perseverance in spreading Chassidus transforms both educators and students from an early age. Despite opposition, dedication to inner Torah brings true success and reveals G‑d's light even to those struggling spiritually.
