Habad holds themselves superior to the Malachim too, even though they also learn and know hasidut.
There is NO ONE in habad who reckon the rebbi of the Malachim to be a ‘disappeared’ Mashiach , who will ‘reappear’ any moment.
Nor are they prepared to use him as an intermediary [al’p] to HKBH.
No matter the amount of hasidut he might have learnt and known in his lifetime ….
Neither is R Aron of Strashelle z’l a candidate. Notwithstanding him reputedly being a goan mamash in hasidut.
So learning hasidut is not the issue at all.
Rather this is very simple. That role is RESERVED already.
There is one God, one Torah and lehavdil elef alfei havdalot only ONE rebbe.
Although in habad the order of this last statement probably is the opposite …..
And all of us , you and me included are [allegedly] created for one purpose only – to be mekabel ol malhuto of their rebbi alenu . That is our and the whole worlds tahlit habri’ah .
Whether we or the world do or do not know it [yet] is irrelevant.
That and only that is the reason why habad considers itself superior to all of us.
