New Delhi:
Shankaracharya Swaroopanand Saraswati on Monday raised a controversy by declaring that Shirdi's Sai Baba is not a God and should not be given special place in prayers.
He even compared Nirmal Baba with Sai Baba and mentioned that it is a conspiracy to divide existing hierarchy of Gods.
"This is a conspiracy to divide the belief of common man. There are only 2 Gods- Lord Ram and Krishna," he added.
He informed that all those people who don't want the Govt to construct Ayodhya temple are spreading these beliefs that Sai Baba was a God. Even Sai Baba trust is involved in the conspiracy.
