Story 1
A few days ago, Rebbetzin Fruma Schapiro, a granddaughter of the Niftar went to visit him in Hospital.
Rabbi Mendel Feldman was lying on his hospital bed and Rebbetzin Schapiro decided to read some Likkutei Dibburim to him from the Frierdiker Rebbe.
Rebbetzin Schapiro opened the Likkutei Dibburim randomly to a page in the middle and started reading it to him.
The Likkutei Dibburim on that page was talking about how when the Neshoma leaves the world it goes to the Mechitzah of the Rebbe it was connected to in this world, and the Rebbe is waiting for him there… this was very relevant to Rabbi Mendel Feldman as he was Mekushar blev Vnefesh to the Frierdike Rebbe and then afterwards the Rebbe…
Story 2
Rabbi Mendel Feldman passed away at 12:17am on Shabbos morning in the Hospital, so many members of his family didn’t find out about his passing until many hours later.
At 1:30am his grandson Rabbi Sholom Feldman, who hadn’t heard yet that his Zayde had passed away, woke up in his home from a clear dream.
In the dream he was walking with his grandfather, who was very happy.
They came to a place with a bright light, but Zayde said, “This is not it.” So they continued to a place which had a much brighter light, making the previous place seem dark in comparison, and Zayde still said,”This is not it.” This happened a number of times with more purer and brighter white lights, until they came to a place with the purest and brightest white light. At this point Zayde said, “This is it.” He said goodbye to Sholom and the other family members who appeared in the dream, to join the holy Tzaddikim in that purest of places.
Sholom woke up knowing that Zayde had passed away and had gone to the holiest place, but this was only confirmed to him many hours later when he came to Shul and was told the news.
Rabbi Schapiro quoted these two stories to say that Rabbi Mendel Feldman’s Neshomah is definitely in a very exalted place at the moment and we ask him to be a Meilitz Yosher for all of Klal Yisroel.
what kind of ahavat yisrael is that – someone reaches out to us to share an uplifting experience FOR US he didnt have to, he could have kept it to himself and we belittle him for it? Of course yet another dream for Kislev is the month of dreams!!
didn’tyou read #8 ? may be you should .
LESHANA TOVA TO ALL
It was hot in the bais Medrash so I gave Rebbe a cold drink in a coffe mug. He tasted it,put it down and said to me,`This cup has not been Toveled`. Upon investigation ,he was correct.Only a Ko-desh who spent his whole life making himself into a K`li Ko-desh could know.He loved Ha-Shem and Torah , K`lall Yisroel and especially Shabbos Ko-Desh. In the end Shabbos Ko-desh embraced him. I truly believe the dream.Even before I heard the story, I knew where Rebbe is and his memory should live in us and with every feeling ,thought and action we… Read more »
Verabim Hashiv Maoven Many people in the Baltimore area were brought to Yidishkeit through this special chosid
you are obviously ignorant
Laugh, belittle, degrade denigrate however very soon Moshiach is coming and all the mockers, ba-alai sinas chinam and ba-alai machlokes will have to answer for their poor choices of behaviour, for sure the above snide comments were not written in order to foster and increase love and bring moshiach! What a Rachmonos on them! An oppurtunity has arisen to do Tshuva, as a parting gift Rabbi Mendel Feldman sent us regards and a glimmer of life after life and instead of taking the words to heart and rising to the chalenge…oy vey…Yiden, it’s Yud Tais Kislev, Rosh Hashono Lechassidus!! Leshono… Read more »
Rabbi Mendel Feldman was a very special person , a true Chosid
I once heard thet the Rebbe would sent Halacha questions to Rabbi Feldmna
what I see from the above comments is that lyeder lyeder, we haven’t learnt much from the Holzberg tragedy. the lack of ahavas chinam above is soooooooooo disappointing. common guys, wake up! what does it bother you if the guy feels good about having had a dream or just saying he had a dream. if it makes him feel better when he is hurting, why IS IT HURTING YOU SO MUCH, FOR HEAVENS SAKE???!!!! don’t we ever learn???!!!!
if you are not convinced please google “the seal of truth ” and watch the video . trust me you will be singing a different tune.
these feldmans are quite the dreamers.first its with rabbi simon now his zeida. these guys are either making this up or dreamers. i learnt in kindergarten that there is a bright light above in heaven. nu zul alleh yiiden huben nuhr a sach licht,uhn moshiach zuhl kummin heint!
“and then afterwards the Rebbe… ”
y lie
Oh. We have figured out all there is to explain in our physical world and we are now ready to move to the dreams.
Ugh.
Yes, speak of the greatness of those that have departed, but – a dream is a dream is a dream.
