10 Shevat 5726 · January 31, 1966
When my father-in-law, the Rebbe, was compelled to leave Russia, he enjoined his Chassidim
not to lose heart, for he would remain as close to them as aways. And so it was: the Rebbe
accomplished from abroad what must normally be done by someone who is physically present.

We are not celebrating the past, but something very real, in the present.
The Jewish People are “a wise and understanding people.” Nevertheless, each year, Jews from all walks of life gather to commemorate the Rebbe’s passing. Clearly, then, we are not celebrating the past, but rather, something very real, in the present.

10 Shevat, 5743 • January 24, 1983
A person’s passing seems to be a time of sorrow, not happiness. Yet, we gather on the Rebbe’s Yahrzeit, to increase our energy, enthusiasm, and joy in fulfilling our life’s mission.
Torah teaches that, “a greater light comes from darkness.” Torah instructs us to take apparent negativity and darkness, and find in it G-d’s glory, goodness and light.

An address on the Yahrzeit of Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak of Lubavitch:
Today we commemorate the passing of the leader of our generation. How, then, can we call
this “a day of merit”?
Everything that occurs in G-d’s world contains an element of good, it only depends on the
individual to contemplate deeply enough to find it.

Today is the anniversary of the passing of my revered father-in-law, the sixth Rebbe, Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak Schneersohn, on 10 Shevat, 5710 (1950). It is an appropriate time to view this 40-year period in a larger perspective.
