  • Vaad Hakohol of Crown Heights
    11 Reserve the Date: ELECTIONS -SSUNDAY, 2 IYAR, APRIL 30 VAAD HAKOHOL OF CROWN HEIGHTS What did the Rebbe mean when he said; “This is not Russia!”? () When the Vaad Hakohol announced that elections will be held for addi- tional Rabbomim we made it very clear that these elections will be open, honest and transparent. As the Rebbe said very clearly, “This is not Russia.” What worked in Russia will not work here in a democratic and open society. This means anyone is free to recommend qualified candidates for the Beis Din. It means legitimate elections that offer the voters real choices, not “yes or no” on a single unopposed candidate. It means engaging objective outside monitors to supervise the entire election process so that no one should have any doubts regarding the elections outcome. It means involving netzigim from a range of local shuls to act as observers and make sure nothing underhanded takes place. Reserve the Date: ELECTIONS -SSUNDAY, 2 IYAR, APRIL 30 22 Unfortunately the last election in 5763 failed to conform to even minimal standards of democratic process. To begin with, there was only a single candidate. This was the sort of practice the Rebbe was referring to as “This is not Russia!” Furthermore, the Vaad Hakohol at that time – with the signatures of Yaakov Herzog, Nochum Gross and Chanina Sperlin – wrote in their announcement of 9 Marcheshvon 5763 as follows: “...The Rebbe has instructed us that the appointment of Rabbonim should be through the participation of the entire Kehillah* by public mandate, therefore with the consent of Rabbi Avrohom Osdoba Shlita, we would like to inform you tht G-d willing elections will take place Sunday 21 of Marcheshvon 5763… “At this time you will have an opportunity to elect … Rabbi Yaakov Schwei, who currently is assisting the B”D in its many duties and is willing to serve as a full time Rov and Member of the B”D as necessary.

  • Detailed Instructions on the Laws and Customs for Shavuos 5774
    BH Day-by-Day Halachic Guide Detailed Instructions on the Laws and Customs for Shavuos 5774 From the Badatz of Crown Heights B”H, erev Rosh Chodesh Sivan, 5774 To all residents of Crown Heights, kan tzivah Hashem es ha’brachah With the approach of the festival of Shavuos, may it be a source of goodness and blessing, we would like to extend our heartfelt blessings to all residents of Crown Heights: May you receive the Torah with simchah and pnimiyus, in the spirit of ahavas and achdus Yisrael! In accordance with the Rebbe’s directives, we are encouraged to take full advantage of the spiritual arousal that pervades the festival of Shavuos and the days of preparation for receiving the Torah. The Rebbe calls our attention to two areas in particular: A. To increase in diligent Torah study, to strengthen both universal shiurim (Chitas, Rambam, Inyanei Moshiach and Geulah, etc.) and one’s individual fixed schedule of study––each according to his ability, in accordance with the laws governing Torah study. One should introduce additional set times for Torah study, stepping beyond one’s measure. One should “add to the Torah” by expanding upon and innovating Torah insights, both in quantity and quality. A special effort should be made to strengthen and increase the number of public Torah classes and to strengthen the shiurim in our own community. B. To increase in ahavas and achdus Yisrael as a preparation for receiving the Torah, as emphasized repeatedly by the Rebbe (see especially Behar Bechukosai 5751). We addressed this issue many times in the past, as per the guidelines in many seforim.

    ב"ה Important Notice Free Translation Adar I 5779 To all directors of [Lubavitch] institutions, Greetings and blessings, This letter addresses an important and timely issue: In recent years, various news websites have been created which publicize news related to the Chabad-Lubavitch community, such as COLlive and other similar sites. We would like to clarify a number of important points regarding these sites: 1) At the Rebbe's instruction, a standard procedure for all matters of publicity related to Lubavitch was established years back. Any publication for the broader public that mentioned the Rebbe, Chabad, Lubavitch, or the like, had to be approved before publication. Today as well, it should be necessary to receive approval of G-d fearing Anash Rabbonim for all widespread publicities associated with the Chabad community. 2) The website COLlive and similar ones are not under the approval of any accepted rabbinic body. 3) The abovementioned websites sometimes publish articles and comments whose content runs contrary to the way of Torah, and particularly to the Rebbe's outlook (such as op-eds that question Lubavitch standards regarding the attitude to secular culture, the unique roles of men and women, the leading role of Rabbonim, etc.). Furthermore, they publish articles and comments which include prohibited slander and gossip (which had more than once caused actual loss to institutions and individuals). Moreover, the standards of tznius are grossly violated (for example, they publish photos of obviously immodest women, photos of men and women mingling in an inappropriate way, etc.). 4) The abovementioned website ridicules clear rulings by Rabbonim, (for example, recently a psak was published by Anash Rabbonim concerning the MicDrop events, and COLlive published the ruling together with their criticism of it, and along with a link to purchase tickets to the event!).
