Hoshana Rabbah – Shemini Atzeres – Simchas Torah "B'tzeil HaKodesh" with the Satmar Rebbe shlit"a – together with many thousands of chassidim and men of deeds from all corners of the world under one roof.


With praise and thanks to Hashem for the great merit of being able to take part in the holy days of elevation "B'tzeil HaKodesh," permeated with the joy of a mitzvah and with a feeling of holiness, uplifting of the soul and closeness to Hashem — "A tower of strength is the Name of Hashem, the righteous one runs to it and is elevated." Fortunate is the eye that saw how "the righteous see and rejoice, the upright exult, and the chassidim sing with joy," in the accepted way of the Heitev Lev and the Yismach Moshe zy"a and on high, elders along with youths standing and bowing, crowded together for hour upon hour on Simchas Torah, "not hungry for bread and not thirsty for water, but to hear the word of Hashem," the likes of which there is none. Fortunate are we, how good is our portion and how pleasant our inheritance — the beautiful inheritance of the second days of Yom Tov.
Our prayer to the Holy Creator, the Giver of the Torah: that we receive the holy influences of the Yom Tov and that they continue for an entire year with ever greater strength and vigor, without any disturbance, and that we receive holy guidance from the Rebbe shlit"a in good health and with a radiant countenance, and that he "still bear fruit in old age, be vigorous and fresh," continuing to impart of his majesty and lead the holy congregation, and that we merit for many more years to warm ourselves by his brilliant light, until we merit the coming of the Redeemer speedily.

Here we will only relate the matters as they were and the order of the days of elevation, and "more than what we have read to you is written here."
