Kovetz Chof Ches Sivan - Yoivel Shanah: Difference between revisions

On Monday, 28 Sivan 5751 (1991), the Rebbe visited the Ohel (the Previous Rebbe's resting place) and returned to 770 only toward evening. Shortly afterward, the Rebbe came down for Mincha, and after Mincha, one of the anash (community members) - Rabbi Shneur Zalman Gourary - conveyed the chassidim's blessing to the Rebbe, and a Kohen (Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak Gutnick) blessed the Rebbe with Birkat Kohanim (Priestly Blessing). Following these blessings, the Rebbe delivered a sicha lasting approximately 15 minutes, after which Maariv was prayed.

After Maariv, the distribution of dollars and the kuntres was scheduled to take place, but the gabbaim announced that the kuntreisim were not yet ready and there would be a break of about 15 minutes (apparently thinking that the Rebbe was still fasting, as was his custom on days he visited the Ohel, and to provide an opportunity to break the fast before the distribution, which would last for hours). However, instead of going up to his room, the Rebbe smiled and said, "Instead of taking a break, let's continue now," and delivered another sicha of about 10 minutes. By the end of this sicha, the kuntreisim were ready, and the distribution continued until 12:30 at night. Toward the end of the distribution, the Rebbe took one kovetz and placed it under his siddur. A few minutes later, he took another kovetz and placed it under the first one.
