Kochi, January 02: Days after Kerala CPM leader insulted Lord Ayyappa saying he was born out of an unnatural relationship, now another Communist leader MB Rajesh has stirred a controversy by passing derogatory comments against Adi Shankaracharya.
During an inaugural event of an organisational meeting linked to the Sivagiri Pilgrimage, Rajesh said Shankaracharya was not the Acharya of Kerala as he “preserved caste system and varnashrama system”.
Going further to insult the Adi Shankaracharya Rajesh claimed that Shankaracharya preserved the caste system while Gurudeva worked on weeding it out from society. He added that Shankaracharya was the “implementer of the cruel caste system based on Manusmriti”. He claimed that the devotees realised by the teachings of Swami Chidanandapuri that Guru’s vision had nothing to do with other Indian Sanyasa Traditions.
Union Minister of State for External Affairs V Muraleedharan condemned Rajesh’s statement and said both Adi Shankara, the Vedanta Philosopher and Sree Narayana Guru, the saint and social reformer, belonged to the same ascetic linage of the country.
He added that Rajesh’s attempt to create a division in Hindu dharma and his statement should be condemned. He added that his statement showed the intolerance of the communists towards ancient Indian traditions and philosophy. Calling it false propaganda, Union Minister said even a hundred Communists’ manifestos could not match the philosophy propagated by Adi Shankar and Sree Narayan Guru.
