You should not be disseminating disinformation, instead
you should just be truthful about the matter, Sir. You have
again been found in error. The Adi Shankara was born in
788 AD, not *before* the historical Buddha; the Kanchi
Matha is not one of the *original* four; and the Kanchi
Matha Swami has been discredited. These are the facts.

Sarasvati is currently the sole representative of this lineage."
