Well, no, I seem to have a little more familiarity
with the duties and responsibilities of a
Shankaracharya than you do.  See another post to
Curtis for more details.

I did, Judy, and all you did was project what you feel must go on in a "Shankaracharya outfit," as you called it. When was the last time you read in any kind of legitimate publication that any of what you assume actually went on? What you mostly seem to be familiar with is your fervent imagination.

 Is there some kind of laundry list of things a guru is
supposed to do?

Shankaracharya, not just guru, Sal.  Again, it's
like being an archbishop.

According to whom? The Catholic Church is a worldwide organization that runs schools and provides food to millions all over the world, amongst many other things. If you're seriously suggesting a comparison, I'd say lay off the LSD. All of these musings are simply more and more projecting.

Do yourself a favor, Judy, and try a Google search on "Shankaracharya of Jyotir Math" and see what you come up with. There's about 200+ mentions, all of them related to--surprise!-- either MMY or the TMO. I guess they must have had trouble filling the position after GD died. And If you do a search on just Shankaracharya what you mostly get is info on that shooting. Apparently apart from you and a few other devotees nobody much else considers GD or whatever goes on at "Shankaracharya outfits" to be either of much importance or interest.
