What do we think about the pros/cons of Neo-Chassidus? Especially, the geshmak music that is being mechazek a lot of chevra.
February 27, 2023 4:28 pm at 4:28 pm #2169741ujmParticipantIt’s entertainment. And a fad.
February 27, 2023 4:28 pm at 4:28 pm #2169734n0mesorahParticipantIf to you ‘it’s especially the music’, yourro probably unaware of all the real pros/cons.
February 27, 2023 4:28 pm at 4:28 pm #2169733lakewhutParticipantMusic, wearing a gartel, and knowing a few chasidish stories doesn’t make you a chasid. You either follow one fully or you’re just straggling along.
February 27, 2023 4:44 pm at 4:44 pm #2169756DaMosheParticipantIt’s a great example of “Feel Good Judaism”, where people believe that anything which gives you a warm fuzzy feeling is bringing you closer to Hashem.

Is it really just a fad? In plenty of Shuls, new positions like mashpia are popping up everywhere.
February 27, 2023 6:07 pm at 6:07 pm #2169771n0mesorahParticipantAlready the posters are denying (or ignorant) of the real issues.

What misnagid has not walked by a chosid bedecked in a 16 inch fur headpiece delicately balanced on his head on a hot summer day along with a beautifully tailored bekishe and not experienced a deep sense of envy and anguish about not having been born into yiddeshe royalty. Its not just feel-good niggunim.February 28, 2023 2:43 am at 2:43 am #2169835KuvultParticipantUjm,
The exact same thing was said about Chasidism even long after it was firmly established.February 28, 2023 11:59 am at 11:59 am #2169915lakewhutParticipantKuvult a lot of it still holds true.
February 28, 2023 11:59 am at 11:59 am #2169916besalelParticipantI think you should all research the names Gershom Scholem and Martin Buber and then come back here and opine on neo-chassidis.
February 28, 2023 9:59 pm at 9:59 pm #2170158n0mesorahParticipantDear Besalel,
That was my point. Except that it would be three generations behind. There is a lot of these elements even in non hassidic circles. Modern thought is rough.
