Jay Swaminarayan One & All!

Swamishri’s heartfelt wishes and divine ruchi have poured forth in the form of this beautiful letter — a stream of blessings captured on paper — addressed to all beloved BKYS Haribhakto across North America.

How truly fortunate we are to witness Swamishri’s unmatched love, compassion, and eagerness to gift us with something so precious — all for simply taking one step toward him on our journey to Rājipo.

Let us embrace this as our journey — a shared path to Rājipo. Let’s uplift and inspire one another to reach not just our goals, but to engrave this mukhpath into our lives in a way that withstands the test of time.

Below are Swamishri’s words of love. Please read them with faith, reflect on them deeply, internalize their meaning, and in doing so — become truly immortal.
📖 How should I read this letter?

Words of wisdom from Bhagwan Swaminarayan himself:

“ભગવાનનું દર્શન કરીને તથા વાર્તા સાંભળીને જો તેનું મનન ને નિદિધ્યાસ નિરંતર કર્યા કરે તો તેનો સાક્ષાત્કાર થાય, નહીં તો આખી ઉંમર દર્શન-શ્રવણ કરે તો પણ સાક્ષાત્કાર થાય નહીં।” (સારંગપુર-૩)

“If one continuously engages in ‘manan’ and ‘nidhidhyās’ after doing darshan of God and listening to His talks, then one will attain ‘sākshātkār’ of them. Otherwise, even if one does darshan and ‘shravan’ for the rest of one’s life, one will still not attain ‘sākshātkār’.” (Sarangpur-3)

🪷 This letter is more than just words—it’s a gateway to sākshātkār, if we choose to reflect deeply and absorb its essence.
