In the era of social media, when one statement, one video and one picture can make or break a person’s image in the eyes of the public, then the weight of every word and every scene increases. Pandit Dhirendra Shastri alias Bageshwar Dham, which has become the center of faith of crores of devotees in the country, is once again at the center of discussion on social media. The reason is his two videos, which seem to be giving completely opposite messages to each other. On one hand, the money given from the stage and a jibe at the show, on the other hand, a scene related to the same money which has created a flood of questions on social media. This is the reason why now this matter is not limited to just viral videos, but has become a debate on the difference between faith, words and deeds.

The statement about money and sand went viral

Actually, recently a video of Pandit Dhirendra Shastri went viral on social media, in which he was seen saying during his sermon that money is a very strange thing, friends. If there is too much money, people even go to Dubai to see the sand. People saw this statement as a message of simplicity, sacrifice and distance from material pleasures. The video was shared widely and supporters appreciated it by connecting it with the thinking of the saints.

But now after some time of this statement, another video of Pandit Dhirendra Shastri has surfaced, which has completely changed the atmosphere of social media.

Users reacted like this

Social media users say that when money and appearance were being taunted from the stage, it creates a contradiction to see oneself skating on the sands of Dubai. Many people posted both the videos together and wrote that the difference between words and actions is clearly visible. At the same time, supporters say that traveling or visiting any place is not a crime and every person has the right to live a personal life.
