On the subject of Yisroel Aryeh Leib Schneerson AKA Mark Gourary. This is Aryeh Leib’s daughter this past summer (so I was told) at a simcha . She is the only human being that received material objects in the Rebbe’s will. The lady in the wheelchair is her friend, someone mentioned the name, but I have almost forgotten it. It doesn’t matter. Sorry, obviously the grand and regal lady would rather not be photographed.
God help us all and give us the strength to persevere with meaningful and lasting friendships.
I agree.
When I attempted to recreate Chabad in 1995-96 with Grand Rabbi SSD of Liozne our motto was back to basics.
Rejoining klal Yisroel,study, personal growth ,leave outreach to NCSY and Or Sameach and create a community of seekers.
It was not meant to be,but my motto is back to BASICS,no PRno Messiah talk.no cult of personality,no baloney shlichus,just people trying to study and experience chasiduth.
Rabbi Moshe Weinberger in Lawrence has created such a neo Chasidic community
By the way in 1996 we had many interested people but the leader was missing in action I know I was there and saw.
Spain after Franco
But in Chasidic world groups like Munkatch,Biyan,Karlin-Stolin,Koshnitz, all reinstated monarchy after interegnum.
