Can anyone confirm if this statement from Upasani Baba is accurate?

In February 1939, the Indian Master, Upasani Baba, received a distinguished visitor at his ashram. The Shankaracharya of Jyotir Math, head of one of the four principal monasteries founded by the sage Shankara, was welcomed for the Hindu feast of Siva Ratri (the "Night of Siva"). In the course of conversation, the Shankaracharya was lamenting the decay that he saw in the Spiritual culture of India. Tranported by sudden inspiration. Upasani Baba proclaimed that an Avatar "would soon be born in a European (meaning Western) country". "He will be all-powerful," Upsani declared, "and bear down everthing before him. And he will see to it that the Vedic Dharma is firmly re-established in India."
