Is what chassidus? Hiskashrus to a Rebbe? Sure. Yehuda Green, no. The song, probably.
Fair warning - Any PMs sent in response to forum posts are fair game for ridicule in public.

Was going to post a link to Hayom Yom of 24 Sivan, but then came across this, which is a little more comprehensive.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

I came across a reprint of ספר הק"ן today in 770. Some fascinating articles there from great scholars and thinkers. I only read through the first article of הרב אברהם חן and found the second part of it, explaining the essence of Chassidus to be spot on. (The first part about the history of the Alter Rebbe is also written well and is very engaging IMHO).
