“There was once an arrogant man, who during assemblies would rarely allow anyone else to speak. During one assembly, he cited a teaching that he had heard from a great scholar. A wise man that happened to be present seized the opportunity to exclaim: ‘That’s a lie! You could never have heard anything from any scholar since, as it appears, you do not allow anyone else to speak…’ (Mekor Baruch in Likkutei Battar Likkutei).”
In a world full of voices, let’s remember the power of truly hearing others! 🙏 This ancient tale reminds us of the consequences of arrogance and the importance of open ears.
