This is conversation that happended in Nasik during road trip darshan to Nasik , I met one Guruji Kulkarni age must be 40 young tha look wise , I asked him that why Swami Samarth is shown in Prabhu Shri Ram's Avatar and on Ram Navmi why Swami Samarth is honored and worshipped , I asked ka Swami Samarth cha Math madhye and Akkalkot la Ram Navmi cha itka motha Ustav ka hoto.
Guruji said Bahut bada celebration hota hai Akkalkot and he took over the conversation and he started listening , said, "Ek baar Akkalkot may Ek person aya Nasik uska naam tha Vamanrao Rele, kuch log bolte hai ki He was from Solapur se tha toh kuch bolte hai Pune se tha , lekin he was educated aur Ekdum Kattar Shri Prabhu Shri Ramji ka Bhakt tha full dedication se pooja karta tha usne Swami Samarth Maharaj ka naam suna.
Vamanrao Rele ekdum Ram-Upasak tha daily pooja karta tha Ramji ki aur woh Swami Samarth ji ko dekhne gaya ki kya baat hai Swami may ki log ekdum unki itni Bhakti karte hai sach may ye Swami hai ki sirf Fraud Bhondu Baba hai.
Vamanrao ne dekha ki sab Bhakt Swami Samarth ji ko Vandan karte hai unke Charan Saprsh karke , Charan Saprah karna meaning apna Ego unke Charan may surrender karna hota aur abhi uski baari thi , Vamanrao ka mann nahi mana aur ye baat Swamai Samarth ji ko pata chali , Swami Samarth ko logo ke pichle jaman ki baate yaad hoti ye toh just abhi ki Maan ki baat thi.
