Once, the 5th Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Shalom DovBer Schneersohn said:[1]
“When I sit in behind a locked door and learn Likutei Torah, I “hear” Atzmus—the essential expression of G-d.”
Though we surely can in no way compare to the spiritual levels of the Rebbe, when we study Chassidus, we too must learn to feel the G-dliness embedded in the words.
