<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->: Lord, Mahesh Yogi considers Vishnu Devanand Saraswati as
Shankaracharya of the Jyotish peeth. As far as I know he was not
consecrated according to Vedic ritual. Also, Mahesh is reported to
pay his monthly expenses?
Shankaracharya: I do not have any evidence of his giving money. This,
however, is certain, that he, Vishnu Devanand does not have offerings
which are enough for his living. Therefore, it seems that he gets
income from outside. Moreover, he calls Mahesh Yogi as puujya (revered),
as Maharishi (great seer) and stands up on his arrival, these are
all things which indicate that he is dependent on him for money. So
far as the question of Shankaracharya is concerned, only he is made
Shankaracharya who has all the qualities of Mahaanushasan (great discipline).
According to Mahaanushasan, Shankaracharya is he who has conquered
his senses, knows all the other scriptures. Only such a person, who
has all these qualities should sit on the seat of Shankaracharya.
In case a wrong person is found to be occupying that seat, he should
be dethroned. As far as I know, the scholars from Baneras had held
him unable for this seat. Even after that statement, he has not acquired
any competency.
Again, the so-called will of the deceased Guru Dev prescribes the
name of Dvarikeshanand Saraswati as the second person, not him. It
is written in that will (of Guru Dev) that this is clearly my order,
that so far as Dvarikeshanand Shastri is alive, there is no one who
has the right to make anyone else succeed to that seat unless Dvarkishanand
becomes mentally incompetent or else relinquishes the seat himself.
Depriving him of his seat is disobedience of the teacher's order.
Therefore, neither according to the Mahaanushasan, nor according to
the will of Shankaracharya (Guru Dev), is he (Vishnu Devanand) the
rightful successor.
When a Sammelan (conference) of all the four seats was called, he
(Vishnu Devanand) was not invited there as one presiding over the
Jyotish Peeth. Moreover, no other Shankaracharya of any seat allows
him to sit next to him.
He knows that in the days ahead he will be exposed. Before that moment
arrives, he wants to make sure that he will not have financial difficulty
in life. He created on Shankaracharya here. There is Shantinand sitting
there (pointing to Shantinand sitting on the stage). They, Shantinand
and Vishnu Devanand have no influence on the public. They are raised
by Mahesh's money. They just sing his glory.

I was a little bit suspicious in the first place when the idiot started spouting "insaaniyat" instead of "maanavata or maanav jaath" because a shankaracharya I persume is supposed to be competent in Sanskrit & once you know that you can speak Hindi without Farsi/Arabic.
