Tishrei in Beis Chayeinu
The atmosphere of Rosh Hashana was felt from the first tekia on Rosh Chodesh Elul. During the first week of Elul, the elder Chabad Chassidim who came from various cities began to make their appearance. They would come for three months or more and devote themselves to avodas Hashem during these auspicious days; tasting from the “tree of life” (the inner teachings of the Torah) and breathing the atmosphere of Beis Chayeinu to fuel them for an entire year.

THE FIRST VIDEO TO CAPTURE TISHREI WITH THE REBBE
Thirty years ago, for the first time, a video was produced that showed the events of Tishrei in Lubavitch, of a quality that had not been seen before then. * Rabbi Sholom Ber Goldstein, who filmed and produced the video during Tishrei 5748, told us about the breakthrough in technology that enabled such a high quality production, about the kiruvim he got from the Rebbe, and about the tremendous impact the video made on Chabad Chassidim around the world.

Even the benches show telltale signs… * The Rebbe announces limits on yechidus for yeshiva students and the author of the diary misses out on the longed for yechidus.

THE REBBE ALREADY KNOWS
At the beginning of the davening on Yom Kippur, somebody approached R’ Groner and asked him if the Rebbe already knows what is going on in Eretz Yisroel, between Israel and Egypt and Syria [the outbreak of the Yom Kippur war].
