BJP Leader Files Case Against Bagheshwar Dham Sarkar Over His Comment: “Sai Baba is…”

The head priest of Bagheshwar Dham, Bagheshwar Dham Sarkar is very popular these days in the entire nation. He commutes to various parts of the nation for religious speeches and public addresses. Dhirendra Shastri claims to have supernatural powers to read minds and also life. Shastri Ji tends to provide solutions to life problems to the public that gathers to listen to his address. He has gained a lot of fame these days due to his bold religious statements.

He has got a place in the headlines once again because of his comment on Sai Baba. Sai Baba is a popular 20th Century saint who has a lot of followers and devotees. Dhirendra Shastri has stated that Sai Baba is not God, rather he can be referred to as a saint or Fakir.

The controversial statement

In his statement about Sai Baba is expressed that Shankrayacharya has not given Sai the designation of God. He said, “Shankaracharya ji has not given Sai Baba the place of a deity. Preying Shankaracharya ji is the duty of every Sanatani because he is the prime minister of our ‘dharm’. Any saint of our dharma, be it Goswami Tulsidas ji or Surdas ji, is a saint, a great man, a ‘yug purush’, a ‘kalpa purush’ but not a God.”

“People have their faith. We cannot hurt anyone’s faith. Sai Baba can be a saint, a fakir but he cannot be a God,” he added.
