White Kippah of the Amud Tzlathon D' Yisrael, the Admo"r of Tosh

He wore a cap of salvation on his head - his right hand and sacred arm brought him salvation

The white kippah of the Amud Tzlathon D' Yisrael, the sacred Rebbe, Admo"r of Tosh, who wore it during his wondrous divine service, during his famous prayers that lasted for hours upon hours pleading for the salvation of one and all, during his tischen, and when he received the public and enacted wonders just like the ancients.

Chassidic leaders revealed the great sanctity concealed within the personal belongings of tzaddikim and their ritual objects, and that they have the power to bring about great salvation. It is told in the name of Rabbi Mordechai of Nezkizh, that he said regarding the vessel given to him by his rabbi, Rabbi Michel of Zlotchov: “This vessel gives the power to perform miracles and wonders …” (Divrei Binah leaf 47). The source of the importance of the tzaddik’s personal belongings was brought long ago in the name of the Ba’al Shem Tov, by his grandson, the author of Degel Machaneh Ephraim (in parashat Bo): “… All that a person has – his slaves, his servants, his livestock and even all his vessels, are all his sparks, belonging to the root of his soul.” Even the Chata”m Sofer, who is not counted among Chassidim, writes in parashat Toldot: It can be understood from the Yerushalmi that a person’s garments are infused with the wearer’s sanctity, and he who wears them after him will be infused with the same spirit for the better or otherwise; this is the secret of his sons wearing them after him.” It is brought it the name of the Rebbe R' Moshe of Kossov, the author of Leket Ani that "Every item received from the hand of a sacred person, if a person who is ill hold, the external force flees from him and as a direct result, he recovers."

In Jewish communities from across the Diaspora, people have sought to wear a kippah that was used by tzaddikim at special life-cycle occasions (ritual circumcision, redemption of a firstborn, wedding) as an auspicious omen, especially kippahs that were worn by gedolei hador The kippahs were usually the property of the tzaddikim’s descendants, or that of wealthy people who paid large fortunes for them and they would generously lend them to the celebrants. The owners of the garments themselves would wear them as a segulah also on the high holidays – on Rosh HaShanah and Yom Kippur, or when ill, Heaven forbid.
