Later on, R. Mikhal of Zlotchov invited his son to accompany him to see the Maggid. They sat together for a while, and at some point, the Maggid left the room. On the table, there was the Maggid’s pushka (charity? box), and the child started to play with it. When the Maggid returned, he noticed that the pushka was not in the same place as before. He then exclaimed, “When a tzaddik puts something away, he is building Worlds. But if they are moved from their place, then God forbid, we are destroying Worlds.”
