Dear Sisters & Brothers,

 

I think sankaracharya is guilty and he must be punished. But it will be

confirmed in coming days. And if he did not do any wrong it is politically

motivated and must be protested. Infront of Indian law everybody is same, either

Hindu or Muslim or Christian. Or Hindu guru or Muslim imam or Christian priest.

Yes I know its not happening in all cases. but it may be start.

All I know about the Sankaracharya is that a few years ago when I was in deep

despair over something, I happened on his astrological website which promised

that you could ask him one question and he would answer. With my heart

yearning for solace, I sent in my question, and an underling assured me I'd get

an answer. Never to this day have I received one. So I'm not a fan...;-).

To my knowledge this shankaracharya having a

astrolgy website seems very remote.Think you have

mistaken someone else for Kanchi Shankaracharya.
