Swami Swaroopanand Slams Sofia Hayat For Claiming That She’s Given Birth To Lord Shiva!

Sofia Hayat is making more news these days than she ever did during her acting and modelling days. The former British-Indian model/actress who gave up her career and her silicon implants to lead a life of celibacy, was just waiting to land a controversy to her name after she expressed over social media that she felt she has given birth to Lord Shiva – it didn’t take long!

Religious leader Shankaracharya Swami Swaroopanand Saraswati slammed Sofia’s claims of being a transformed individual as just charade and said it’s utter greed that has led to the apparent transformation.

“Nobody can give birth to Lord Shiva. Her claims are utter rubbish and should be not taken seriously,” said a vehement Swaroopanand Saraswati.

In case you didn’t know what the brouhaha is all about, this Instagram post by Sofia after her trip to Aurangabad will give you all the explanation you need!

Kailash temple in Aurangabad is so so powerful. I couldn't breathe. I felt a massive magnetic energy draw my head to the Shiv Lingh. I was shaking for 1hr. I could not lift my head from the Shiv Lingh it was stuck like a magnetic. Something so powerful is happening. Om namah shivaya. My body is changing. Today I know I gave birth to Shiva. Today he came back to me and is inside me. I felt scared for such a big powerful change in my body. I am changing back to who I am. The Gods are coming back. The power in me is so great. Shiva is here inside me, I am inside the shiv lingham. It is so powerful I am shaking in my very soul. The time is here. Sacred children . The universe is me..is you you are everything. Om Namah shivaya According to Linga Purana, the lingam is a complete symbolic representation of the formless Universe Bearer – the oval shaped stone is resembling mark of the Universe and bottom base as the Supreme Power holding the entire Universe in it.Similar interpretation is also found in the Skanda Purana: "The endless sky (that great void which contains the entire universe) is the Linga, the Earth is its base. At the end of time the entire universe and all the Gods finally merge in the Linga itself." In yogic lore, the linga is considered the first form to arise when creation occurs, and also the last form before the dissolution of creation. It is therefore seen as an access to Shiva or that which lies beyond physical creation.
