n0mesora,
>>>Just because I don’t question the tzaddik, it doesn’t make the tzaddik’s actions into proof for anything. Anything at all. Because who am I to know what is really going on.
This is true.
My point about not questioning was to answer this statement that someone made:
“Perfect means that whatever the Rebbe said cannot be wrong or questioned.”
I don’t know what this means. If he’s not perfect, then he could be wrong about what?
Does that mean that if my Rebbe instructs me to do something, I shouldn’t be sure that it’s correct, because he’s not perfect, and he could be wrong?
If Moshe Rabbeinu wasn’t perfect (as many have written), does that mean that we should be wary of keeping Torah and mitzvos chas v’shalom, because he could be wrong (ח”ו)?
That’s why I wrote that perfection has no relevance to questioning the tzaddik. We accept what the tzaddik says, and we question respectfully because תורה היא וללמוד אני צריך.
This is true no matter how we define “perfect”.
