New Delhi, Jun 24: Shankaracharya Swami Swaroopanand said on Monday that Sai Baba of Shirdi is not a symbol of Hindu-Muslim unity and should not be worshipped because he was a human being, and not a God.sai shankaracharya

"Muslims would have had the same amount of faith in Sai Baba if he really was a symbol of unity between the Hindus and Muslims," he said.

The seer also expressed his disapproval over the construction of Sai Baba temples saying that it was merely a way of making money in the name of the spiritual man. Sai Baba was certainly not an incarnation of God, since there are only 24 incarnations of Lord Vishnu, as mentioned in Sanatan Dharma. Worshipping Sai Baba is a conspiracy to create division among Hindus, he said.

He said that foreign organizations were conspiring to prevent Hindus from uniting, the Shankaracharya Swami told news channels. He also said that Sai Baba was not to be considered a guru because he was a non-vegetarian and advocated circumcision.

No matter which human talks about our beloved Sai Deva, we the beleivers of him will never ever go with shit of others.....

Baba lived to sacrifice his own happiness to others and not sure why these types of people comment with idotic and stupid things....

Whatever it is....baba is the true god of this kaliyug....if the above man can say wrong about our Baba.....ask him to do some miracle such as saving a humans life or avoiding some major accident......then we shall agree with the so called above human
