TZADDIKIM IN OUR TIMES WHO TEACH PNIMIYUS [#16965]

November 25, 2021

QUESTION:

From a response of the Rav about the different ways of avodas Hashem throughout the generations of mussar and Chassidus, it seems that Rav Dessler was the first to fuse together the paths of mussar and Chassidus. My question is, then: Are the Talmidei Chachomim who stand out in this generation considered to be like the talmidim (“students”) of Rav Dessler [since they are continuing his path of combining mussar and chassidus]? I am thinking in particular of the Rav who authored “Bilvavi Mishkan Evneh”, as well as the author of the “Yam HaChochmah” sefarim [Rav Yitzchok Meir Morgenstern shlit”a] and also Rav Yitzchok Ginzberg shlit”a.

ANSWER:

(1) Each person had his path.
QUESTION
(2) Also, would it make sense to say that Rav Dessler’s approach was a revelation of “Keser”, and that the Yam HaChochmah author [Rav Morgenstern] is a revelation of Chochmah (Bresslov) and Rav Ginsberg is a revelation of Binah (Chabad), and the “Bilvavi” is a revelation of daas (as implied by the series of the “Da Es”)?
ANSWER
(2) No.
