I heard a story today about musar.
When RSZA and R. Chaim Levin were young (early teens) they
were chavuras in Eitz Chaim Yeshiva and decided they were in
need of musar. They went to the masgiach R. Aryeh Levin (R. Chaim's father).
to ask what sefer he would recommend. He suggested that instead of sefer
they
should peek in on R. Kook learning. They went to the bet medrash and each
took
turns looking through the peephole so as to not disturb him. They were so
impressed that they returned to their learning with increased enthusiasm
that lasted for several weeks. When they felt the influence waning they
would return to
look through the peephole for another short time.
