The segulah of the manuscript of the Chatam Sofer:
The Gaon Maharam Benet said that looking at the handwriting of the Chatam Sofer is capable of instilling fear of Heaven, and it is said that once a Halachic response came from the Chatham Sofer to Maharam Benet and he gazed upon it for some time. When asked by his students what difficulty he had, he responded that just looking at it brings on the fear of Heaven. It is also known that his son Rabbi Shimon Sofer, Av Beit Din of Cracow, when he had to make fateful decisions in the Austrian parliament, would take his father’s handwriting out of his pocket and would look at it.
