If one goes in to a chassidishe rebbe and the rebbe says something you don’t agree with, can you state why you don’t agree with what the rebbe said.

You can respectfully ask questions like if you saw different in such and such sefer you can say you don’t understand because you saw such and such in x sefer.
well why did u ask his opinion to begin with if you know the anser and dont value what he says??
Never mind a “Grand Rabbi”, If you specifically ask someone for advice on a particular subject and you find that you don’t agree with the advice offered, Just thank them for their comments and go about your business.
In a respectful way, I think it would be OK. Not advisable, but OK. There are some Rebbes out there that know what they’re talking about, some even know what you’re talking about, some even what you’re thinking about. Yes, even today. I’ve heard stories, many. Don’t want to elaborate, it will only lead up to no good here. But yes, there are some who’s opinion and guidance should be listened to even if you think the contrary. ????? ?????? ?? ???? ???? ????. Torah giants have an elevated perception, they view things differently than us.
Don’t ask for advice on a personal matter from someone who doesn’t know you well. Go to your rav who has known you for years rather than chasing after a rav you don’t know who may be more famous. Your rav knows best how to advise you because he is already well apprised of your situation.
You know, Froggie has a point. If you think enough of someone that you value their advice and you find that you disagree with the advice offered, you need to carefully consider that they may be right and that you’re wrong.
It depends on the nature of the advice you’re seeking.
The local Frog answered your question in its first sentence.
