הָרַחֲמָן דִּבְרִית מִילָה - אוֹמְרִים

[The six stanzas beginning] HaRachaman are recited [at the Grace after Meals] following a circumcision.

(מִשִּׂיחָה בִּסְעוּדַּת בְּרִית מִילָה)

[The Rebbe Rayatz] said the following at a festive meal celebrating a circumcision:

בִּבְרִית מִילָה אוֹמְרִים

“At a bris, the wording of the blessing offered by those present is:

כְּשֵׁם שֶׁנִּכְנַס לַבְּרִית כֵּן יִכָּנֵס לְתוֹרָה וּלְחוּפָּה וּלְמַעֲשִׂים טוֹבִים

‘Just as he has entered the Covenant, so may he enter into Torah [study], into marriage, and into good deeds.’ 

וְנוֹהֲגִים אֶצְלֵנוּ

[He then added:] “Our custom is

אַז מעֶן גִיט דְּמֵי קְדִימָה אַז דעֶר אִינְגעֶל זאָל לעֶרנעֶן

to make a deposit [toward the child’s future tuition fees] — so that he should become a Torah scholar.”

(וְנָתַן כְּבוֹד קְדוּשַּׁת אַדְמוּ"ר שְׁלִיטָ"א סְכוּם מְסוּיָּם בְּאָמְרוֹ)

[The Rebbe Rayatz]then took out a certain sum of money and said:

דאָס אִיז פאַר דעֶר יְשִׁיבָה

“This is for the yeshivah.”
