The Earthquake in Meron

In the year 5670 תר''ע on Lag B’Omer, there was a strong earthquake in Meron that killed many people. At the time, the Rebbe was on the roof of the tzion, dressed in his striped kaftan and fur shtreimel, meditating and davening with his eyes closed as if it was Yom Kippur. When the earthquake started, he told all his close followers and anyone else in his vicinity to draw near and stand beside him – and all those who heeded his words remained miraculously unharmed!
