As they passed by the opera house, the Rebbe Rashab turned to the chosid and asked: ‘Were you ever in this establishment?’ The chosid was startled by the unexpected question, and he hemmed and hawed and turned colours (he was obviously unable to answer with an unequivocal no, and was extremely embarrassed to admit to this to the Rebbe Rashab). As such, it is important for us to bear in mind that there are certain places where the Rebbe does not go, thus a chosid who is aiming to be constantly attached to the Rebbe, doesn’t 2 belong in such places either [ukeyodua the letter of the Rebbe to the shliach who wanted to go to college, VAKML]. To help us determine what kind of places or activities could be labelled as one’s that ‘the Rebbe would not visit’ – I heard the following story from Rabbi Lustig of New Haven on 19 Kislev this year: Before R’ Pinya (Korf) got married, he wrote to the Rebbe, asking if there was anything ‘not chassiddish’ about having a piano in his house (because his kallah played piano). Chanukah is unique, both amongst other mitzvos and amongst other Yomim Tovim, in its’ strong association with worldliness and the mundane: - the Chanukah lights are specifically delegated to nighttime – with its’ connotation of darkness and evil, they’re delegated to the left side of the door - symbolic of negativity, and they’re the only mitzvah (or one of 2) who’s placement is specifically outside – reshus horabim – the mundane world. Chassidus explains at length how all of these factors are reflective of the distinctive characteristic of Chanuka; that being a light that originates from higher than hishtalshelus, it has the ability to illuminate the darkness itself, to impact the left side, to transform the very reshus
