Once Rabbainu o.b.m. said to me: today I saw a new angel, and I know its name, and it has appointed subordinates under it, and they have shofars in their hands. And they blow a tekiah [long blast], and afterward a teruah [broken blast], and afterward they again blow a tekiah. And they are all digging and searching after lost things — for there are many lost things. And this is the aspect of: "The desire of the wicked shall perish" [tova'ed] (Psalms 112:10) — the letters of "teru'ah" — "they shall be ashamed and perish" (Psalms 83:18) — and sometimes the Tzadik himself who searches after lost things becomes lost himself. And this is the aspect of "there is a Tzadik who perishes in his righteousness" (Koheles 7:9). And then the Tzadik does repentance for that sin through which lost things come about. And certainly the Tzadik does not have that actual sin — only some very very subtle flaw from that sin. And when he does complete repentance for that subtle flaw that he has from that sin, then afterward he returns and finds awesome lost things. And when they are found there is great joy and commotion. And he said then that it is very very difficult to be a "mekabel" [one who receives visitors and donations]. And from the apparent it seems that one who receives causes damage and blemishes in the matter of the lost things — that through this lost things come about. So it appears to me from his words. And the matters are sealed and wonderful and very awesome. And see about this in Sefer Likutay Tinyana (358) — about the matter of the intentions of Elul that are connected to the Bris and about the matter of the unripened fruits — for all of this is one with the aforementioned. So I heard explicitly from his holy mouth and we have no one who knows until how far. 358. RAK: Section 88. And see Likutay Halachos, Orach Chaim, Laws of Fruit Blessings, section 5.
