| A Baal Shem Tov Minute VIII |

| Written by Bentzion of Medziboz |
 A Tzaddik told: “On a winter’s day, I went to the bath with the Master. It was so cold that icicles hung for the roofs. We entered and as soon as he did the Unifications, the bath grew warm. He stood in the water for a very
long time, until the candle began to drip and gutter. ‘Rabbi,’ O said, ‘the candle is guttering and going out.”
‘Fool, he answered, ‘take an icicle from the roof and light it! He who spoke to the oil and it leaped into flame, will speak to this too, and it will kindle.’ The icicle burned brightly for a good while, until I went home, and when I got home there was a little water in my hand.” From “Tales of the Hasidim” by Martin Buber
