The Malach’s second son, R. Yisrael Chaim was R. Shlomo Karliner’s son-in-law. He had a son R. Avraham Shlomo whom the “world” regarded as a wise person of great caliber [literally: of global stature].

However, he did not want to be a rebbe.

The Rizhiner, however, desired strongly that R. Shlomo Chaim should become a rebbe. He told him: Don a white caftan and half the world will run after you. R. Shlomo Chaim answered: why not the whole world? If not the entire world, I don’t want [to become a rebbe].
