As  I heard it, the Rebbe exhorted his Hassidim to stand up and honor the
"gadol hador."  It could be he said A gadol Hador but then why ask Hassidim
to rise?


FWIW I don't know WHERE I read it but I remember it was around 1999 give or
take a year.

I also pointed this out to a Habad Hasid who was an Avodah member and he did
NOT deny it.
