From his youth, he devotedly served G-d and established groups for wholehearted service of G-d in Budapest and Satmar named Shomer Emunim. In 1925, he immigrated to Jerusalem and there too established groups for serving of the Almighty with Chassidic devoutness. From 1930-1939 he returned to his group of Chassidim in Satmar and thereafter moved to Beregszász. In 1939, he returned to Jerusalem and reorganized his holy group which continues his legacy until today in the Chassidism of Toldot Aharon, Shomrei Emunim, Toldot Avraham Yitzchak, Mevakshei Amuna and other Chassidic groups . (Encyclopedia L'Chassidut, Vol. 1, 175-178). His many books (Taharat HaKodesh, Shulchan HaTahor, Shomer Emunim, Mevakesh Emuna, etc.) were published in many editions. This book, Shomer Emunim, is the most primary book of Rabbi Aharon's teaching of Chassidism and emuna which he bequeathed to future generations. This first edition was published anonymously.
