•Swami Govindgiri Maharaj made a controversial statement at Pune University, calling only Dasbodh a holy text and Dnyaneshwari, Eknathi Bhagwat, and Gathas as commentaries or compilations.
•He suggested Ramdas Swami as the ideal for writing independent holy texts.
•Dilip Maharaj More, a trustee of Jagadguru Sant Tukaram Maharaj Sansthan, strongly disagreed, stating it was Govindgiri Maharaj's personal opinion.
•Dehu Sansthan reprimanded Govindgiri Maharaj, emphasizing the profound importance of Dnyanoba Tukoba and Tukaram's Abhangs.
