I know very little about Goral Hagra but I believe it was instituted by the Gra, and that’s good enough for me. If looking in the Igros was institued by the lubavicher rebbe then I can understand that it’s good enough for any lubavicher. But it wasn’t, so therefore even for a lubaicher it should have the same validity on relying on the Hashgocho Protis of a fortune cookie.
