== Introduction to Hassidism ==
The Maggid of Vadislov, traveled around Poland to famous Hasidic Rabbis in his later years. He wasn't a member of the Hasidic movement earlier on in his life, and it would not be until he old age that he was drawn close to the movement. When he was in [[Kozienice|Kozhnitz]], the [[Maggid of Kozhnitz]] was giving a family member a prayer, placing two hands on his head. Also wishing to receive a prayer from the Maggid of Kozhnitz, Tzvi Hersh bent down for the Maggid of Kozhnitz to place his hands on his head and bless him. But the he refused to give him a prayer. Stating that "''You don't need my prayer,'' y''ou have a son who will rescue you from wherever you are – even from the depths of hell!"''<ref></ref>
