Let’s say the Satmarer Rav; he’s a very fine man by the way. I know him personally – a very fine man. But he’s a busy man; he’s learning all the time, and people come to him all the time with sheilos too. But suppose you go to him and you say, “I heard Rabbi Miller speak so I want to get close to you.”
But he says, “I don’t have much time.”
So you’ll say, “Can I at least carry your tallis to your beis hamedrash for you?”
So the Satmarer Rav says, “I don’t need it. I carry it myself.”
So you beg him, “Please rebbe, do me a favor. Let me carry your tallis.” He’s not going to spend time arguing with you in the street, so he relents. So you’re walking behind him carrying his tallis – you’re not talking to him; you’re just walking close to him. You have to know that you’re accomplishing a great achievement for yourself. I’m not a chossid but I’m telling you, if you’ll get that privilege to carry his tallis, you're now becoming closer to Hakadosh Baruch Hu; no question about it.
