from The daily Hayom Yom with Rabbi Yosef Katzman

בִּשְׁנַת תרמ"ח נִבְחַר אַאַמוּ"ר לְגַבַּאי דְחֶבְרָה קַדִישָׁאIn 5648 (1887), my revered father, the Rebbe [Rashab], was elected gabbai of the Chevrah Kaddisha. וּכְפִי הַמִּנְהָג, הוֹבִילוּ אוֹתוֹ בְּשִׂמְחַת תּוֹרָה בְּלִוְיַת עַם רַב לְבֵית הַכְּנֶסֶתFollowing the local custom, he was escorted by a large number of townsmen to the synagogue on Simchas Torah.אָמַר אָז הַמַּאֲמָר אֵין הקב"ה בָּא בִּטְרוּנְיָאThere he delivered the maamar that begins, Ein HaKadosh-Baruch-Hu Ba BiTrunia, וְסִיּוּם דְּבָרָיוand concluded with these words: גַּם הָאֲנָשִׁים בַּעֲלֵי מוֹחִין הַנִּמְצָאִים עַתָּה צְרִיכִים לְהָנִיחַ שִׂכְלָם“Even those of superior intellect who are here now must put their minds aside וְלֹא לֵילֵךְ אַחֲרֵי הַטַּעַם וְדַעַתand not follow their own reasoning, כִּי יְכוֹלִים לְהַטוֹת עַל פִּי שִׂכְלָם כוfor their minds can mislead them עַד כִּי חַס וְשָׁלוֹם מָרָה תִּהְיֶה בָּאַחֲרוֹנָה כוto the extent of (Heaven forbid) a bitter end.”וְזֶהוּ הָעִקָּר בַּזְּמַן הַזֶּה בְּעִקְבוֹת דִמְשִׁיחָאThis is the fundamental point in this era of ikvesa diMeshicha: שֶׁלֹא לֵילֵךְ אַחַר הַשֵּׂכֶל וְטַעַם וָדַעַתnot to follow one’s intellect and reasoning, כִּי אִם לְקַיֵּם הַתּוֹרָה וְהַמִּצְוֹת בִּתְמִימוּת וֶאֱמוּנָה פְּשׁוּטָה בֵּאלֹקֵי יִשְׂרָאֵלbut rather to observe the Torah and its mitzvos with artless sincerity and simple faith in the G‑d of Israel.Text and Translation courtesy of Sichos in English
