What
is left with a person who has given his all? Nothing.
Nothing but himself. And that himself is everything.
It is an ocean of goodness, of purity and humility,
a summary of spirituality. And that is enough to inspire
millions. In Swamiji’s presence, doubts dissolve,
confusions clear, hurts heal and the mind finds peace.
People find answers to life's toughest questions.
Pujya
Pramukh Swami Maharaj is the fifth spiritual successor
of Bhagwan Swaminarayan and the present leader of Bochasanwasi
Shri Akshar Purushottam Swaminarayan Sanstha. He leads
an austere life of lifetime celibacy, without personal
wealth or comfort. Representing the essence of Hinduism,his
compassion for humanity, universal wisdom and striking
simplicity have touched many world religious and national
leaders. But most important is his quiet, undisturbed
love for God which rises beyond all borders of nation,
race and religion.
Even
after creating an international spiritual empire of
hundreds of mandirs, thousands of centres and over
a million followers, you’ll always find Swamiji engrossed
in prayer. Sometimes at 2.30 in the morning, for his
life is the living proof that prayers work and divine
love succeeds.
