We cannot be compared to "Shankaracharya". Not on the grounds that he is more intelligent or has supernatural power, but he is an icon. He has followers who worship him as God . So if he is accused of a murder, it definitely should be highlighted as much as possible. It should be done not because other murders are unimportant but highlighting the possible crime by Shankaracharya has benefits. People might get cautious and think before they follow any baba's or guru's. People might think again before joining a religious politicial party. OR on the negative side people might flip out cause he is what they have being believing blindly. I am really impressed by Tamil Nadu's police department. I think that was a very daring work. Even though he is acquitted, and he was innocent to begin with, boy I am happy. It reminds everyone that such Guru's are also under some constitution that governs normal people like you and me. I wish somebody interviewed him, cause then we will be able to see if he is really divine or not. One of the prabachans I heard said that such Guru's are not affected by anything, and nomatter what anybody does to them they are still filled with love and affection like before for every living being and that they have overcome this Maya of the world. Lets wait and see.
